Calisteniapp

What Calisteniapp does

Calisteniapp is a privately held, bootstrapped Spanish fitness technology company headquartered in Arrecife, Las Palmas, that operates a mobile calisthenics and street workout training platform for iOS and Android. The application delivers structured bodyweight training through a content library of over 700 exercises, 500+ guided sessions, 35+ multi-week training programs, 21-day challenges, and the company's flagship EVO Routines — an adaptive methodology that adjusts workout difficulty after each completed session. The platform also includes a Pro-only Session Creator tool for building custom workouts, real-time progress tracking via workout volume analytics and muscle heat maps, and social sharing functionality. The company is led by co-founder Yerai Alonso, a recognized calisthenics expert, Canary Islands champion, published author, and operator of a major Spanish-language YouTube channel whose personal brand anchors the product's credibility.

The business operates a freemium model: the Base Athlete tier is free with access to 500 sessions, the 700+ exercise dictionary, limited session creation (max 3), and capped video playback (10/day), while the Pro Athlete tier unlocks unlimited session creation, 15+ challenges, 35+ training programs, and 23+ EVO Routines at €9.99/month or €69.99/year with a 7-day free trial. Go-to-market is product-led and community-led: distribution occurs via the Google Play Store and Apple App Store globally, with top-of-funnel acquisition driven by weekly blog content, an active YouTube/TikTok/Instagram/Facebook presence, and a Discord community server. The platform is localized into at least six languages (English, Spanish, German, French, Italian, Portuguese) and explicitly targets both European and Latin American markets.

The company operates with a lean team of 8 employees and has no documented external funding rounds, parent company, or subsidiary structure. Partnerships are limited to two minor co-marketing alliances with calisthenics equipment brand Barmania Pro and fitness facility Sthenos Club. The platform claims over 2 million athletes have joined cumulatively, with app store ratings of 4.5/5 on Google Play and 4.8/5 on the App Store. Calisteniapp is explicitly anti-AI in its positioning, marketing its content as 'of flesh and bone' and emphasizing human-authored instruction over algorithmic personalization.
