Street Workout - Calisthenics Equipment
Improve your health & fitness with our Street Workout Equipment
Calisthenics exercises play a vital role in maintaining good health. Every day we perform calisthenics body movements as part of our daily routine - for example squatting down to pick up a pen or pushing ourselves up out of bed each morning. Calisthenics exercises help improve strength and mobility, keeping our bodies healthy and strong.
KOMPAN offers high quality, strong outdoor fitness equipment to support calisthenics strength training. From pull-ups to split squats, our commercial street workout equipment is designed to provide a varied, full-body workout for all fitness levels.
What is calisthenics training?
Calisthenics is a form of resistance training that uses bodyweight movements to improve strength, power and endurance.
A popular form of modern calisthenics training is street workout. Commonly seen in community areas, street workout combines calisthenics with gymnastic and athletic elements to deliver a uniquely challenging exercise experience. Street workout equipment provided in community areas is a great amenity to ensure everyone benefits from exercising and keeping fit.

Outdoor street workout equipment offers more than just exercise - being outdoors and socialising with others is good for your health and well being. Personal trainers can use the equipment as part of their workouts and new friendships can be formed while working out.
Benefits of outdoor calisthenics equipment
Improves Overall Strength:
KOMPAN's commercial street workout equipment is designed to incorporate multiple calisthenics exercises which provides a full body workout that supports all parts of your body. Often traditional weight based training focuses on one set of muscles but with street workouts lots of muscles sets are targeted and as a result you achieve a full body workout that improves overall strength.
Improves Cardiovascular Endurance:
Outdoor calisthenics equipment is great for improving cardiovascular endurance. Split squats and box jumps are just two of the many high intensity exercises that can be performed using this type of equipment. These exercises will get your heart pumping and will help users improve cardiovascular endurance.
Improves Co-Ordination:
As well as improving overall health calisthenics can help improve co-ordination as you have to co-ordinate your body and brain to work together. Each movement performed using commercial calisthenics equipment fires a series of triggers to the user’s central nervous system, which then signals muscles, tendons and ligaments to respond in a specific order. How efficiently the body co-ordinates these signals will determine how successful the exercise is. As with strength and endurance, co-ordination improves the more you work on it - commercial street workout equipment provides a fun and challenging way for users to develop and enhance these skills.
Encourages Socialisation:
As the popularity of this type of equipment increases so to does the amount of people using them and as this happens the areas become hubs in the community for exercise and socialising. Users get the opportunity to meet like minded people with similar interests and friendships can be formed!
Who can use commercial calisthenics equipment?
Outdoor calisthenics equipment provides a varied workout for all users regardless of fitness levels. However, there is a certain level of training knowledge needed to utilise the equipment effectively.

Frequently asked questions about Calisthenics and Street workout
What is Calisthenics?
It is one of the oldest recognised and organised forms of exercise. The armies of Alexander the Great and the Spartans practiced it. It is a form of exercise that involves large muscle groups by running, standing, pushing and pulling and using your own bodyweight as a tool or a counterbalance.
How many different combinations of equipment do we need for a full workout?
Calisthenics is a simple workout that offers a lot of flexibility in terms of equipment. However, the more equipment you have, the more exercises you can do. Street workouts are great for quick exercises, but you can also plan a circuit training session with them.
What is the most useful piece of street workout equipment?
Answering this question is challenging as an effective workout involves incorporating various exercises. Nevertheless, it's worth noting that pull-ups and parallel bars are unique and not easy to replicate in real-life scenarios.
Is commercial calisthenics equipment all-weather?
The equipment has a powder-coated surface that is designed to withstand all weather conditions. However, extreme conditions such as excessive heat or freezing temperatures may render steel bars and poles unusable. Additionally, snow on the surface may also affect its usability. Contact our office on 091 704 844 to learn more about the materials used in our products.
What is the best surface to install outdoor calisthenics equipment?
To minimize movement upon landing, it is necessary to have a surface that can absorb impact. Pour-in-place rubber surfacing is a good option as it is both flat and smooth, and its open structure allows for quick drainage.
