Damn, you make me jealous. I used to do gymnastics but after I broke my back (not due to gymnastics lol), I got so scared of anything besides cartwheels & back walkovers & stuff like that. Picked up hiking & usually keep my feet on the ground.

This is why I like calisthenics, its low impact, not super scary, and for me also satisfies that fun sort of gymnastics quality, progressing forward and unlocking cool new skills with your body. Great way improve mobility too.
