This is an instructional video on why and how to perform the 4 basic calisthenics movements: horizontal push, horizontal pull, vertical pull, vertical push. 

***If you cannot perform the moves, modified versions are in the second half of the video. If your elbows hurt, then you are doing too much. The only cure is rest. Be safe, have fun!***

These movements can be done anywhere- use your imagination.

To increase muscle size, use a slow tempo or added weight. For cardiovascular health, cycle through the movements quickly, pairing each pull with a push.
