It was a Thursday evening when I left my hometown by Flixbus to head to Prague to meet my dear friend and calisthenics athlete Daniel Trnovec. After some early lunch we left for a roadtrip to the Polish town called Rabka-Zdrój. This is where the 4th edition of the Caliathletics Battles would take place, so we’ll tell you all you need to know about this amazing calisthenics competition in this blog! We’ll also link to the Instagram accounts of all the athletes and since we’ve filmed all the battles we’ll link to our YouTube channel as well. All the battles can also be watched through our Caliathletics Battles VI YouTube playlist.

Calisthenics Champions
It was really a sensational calisthenics competition with a very high level of skills being showcased. We want to congratulate all the calisthenics athletes and specifically Radoslav (1st place), Ismail (2nd place) and Yarin (3rd place) who became this years champions at the Caliathletics Battles. They went home with not just the victory, but also with 800, 400 and 200 euros in prize money. The “bonus best” were “Romashka Boy” Roman Demchenko who won best dynamics and Patryk Musielak who won best statics.
We’re planning to visit the Caliathletics Battles V in 2024, which will take place on the 10th of August.
