In calisthenics, lower body exercises are used to build leg strength, improve balance, and increase flexibility. Three of the most common lower body exercises are squats, lunges, and calf raises.

Squats are a compound exercise that work the quads, hamstrings, and glutes. To perform a squat, stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and your toes pointing forward. Keep your back straight and lower your body until your thighs are parallel to the ground. Then, push back up to the starting position.

Lunges also work the quads, hamstrings, and glutes, but they also engage the core and improve balance. To perform a lunge, stand with your feet hip-width apart and step forward with one foot. Lower your body until your front thigh is parallel to the ground and your back knee is just above the ground. Then, push back up to the starting position and repeat with the other leg.

Calf raises are an isolation exercise that work the calf muscles. To perform a calf raise, stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and rise up onto the balls of your feet. Hold this position for a few seconds before lowering back down.

When performing lower body exercises, it is important to maintain proper form and to start with a weight or resistance level that is appropriate for your fitness level. As you progress, you can increase the weight or resistance and add variations to the exercises to keep challenging your muscles.
