About Me

Calisthenics Has Been My Life For Over 15 Years

My name is Bruno Žgela and I have dedicated more than 15 years to mastering bodyweight training, movement, strength and athletic development. Through competing, coaching and thousands of hours of practice, I have developed a system that helps people build strength, confidence and a body they can be proud of.

My Journey

I started my calisthenics journey in 2013, as a 13 year old kid inspired by the freedom of street workout and the idea that you can build incredible strength using nothing more than your own body. Coming from a background in sports, including football and wrestling, I developed the discipline, determination, and competitive mindset that continue to guide me today.

Along the way I learned that real progress doesn't come from shortcuts. It comes from consistency, intelligent programming and patience. These are the principles I now teach every client.

Today my goal is simple: help people avoid years of mistakes and achieve results faster with proper guidance.

Throughout my calisthenics journey, I have always been driven by one goal: to continuously push the limits of what the human body can achieve through bodyweight training.

After more than a decade of dedicated practice, I have specialized in endurance calisthenics - a discipline that combines strength, stamina, mental toughness, and the ability to perform under extreme fatigue.

Today my goal is simple: help people avoid years of mistakes and achieve results faster with proper guidance.


Some of my best personal achievements include:

DIPS

420 Repetition in one set (while resting only in upper position of the exercise) 117 Repetitions with 20kg added weight

PUSH UPS

1000 repetitions without leaving a push up position

PULL UPS

60 Consecutive repetitions without leaving the bar Total of 1000 repetitions in 1 hour

My experience in pushing the limits of endurance and strength allows me to understand the challenges athletes face at every level. Through my coaching, I help others build their strength, improve their technique, and create the discipline needed to reach their own goals.

My Titles & Competition Achievements

Throughout my calisthenics career, I have had the opportunity to compete among some of the strongest athletes in the world and represent my country on both national and international stages. My dedication to endurance calisthenics has led me to achieve multiple championship results, including national titles in Croatia and podium finishes at major international competitions.

Some of my biggest achievements include:

🏆 Multiple-time Croatian National Champion

I have achieved multiple first-place finishes at national-level competitions, becoming one of the leading endurance calisthenics athletes in Croatia.

🥇 1st Place – Beast of the Barz European Championship (Sweden)

Winning this competition was one of the most memorable moments of my career. It was a true test of strength, endurance, and mental toughness against top athletes from across Europe.

🥈 2nd Place – SWCF World Championship (Latvia)

Competing at the world level and finishing as vice champion was a milestone that confirmed my place among the best endurance calisthenics athletes internationally.

🥇 1st Place – International Championship (Serbia)

Another important victory that strengthened my experience as a competitive athlete and pushed me to continue improving.

These achievements represent years of discipline, consistency, and a commitment to pushing the limits of what is possible with bodyweight training.

Beyond medals and rankings, every competition has helped me develop a deeper understanding of training, preparation, and performance — knowledge that I now use to help my coaching clients reach their own goals.

My journey has taught me that progress is not built overnight. Real results come from consistency, smart programming, proper technique, and the willingness to challenge yourself every day.

I believe calisthenics is for everyone. Whether your goal is to build strength, achieve advanced skills, transform your physique, or simply become more capable in your own body, the right approach can help you get there.

My training philosophy is built around mastering the fundamentals, creating sustainable progress, and developing both physical and mental strength. I focus not only on the exercises themselves, but on teaching people how to train with purpose and understand their own potential.

Today, I use everything I have learned throughout my athletic journey to help others achieve their goals through personalized calisthenics coaching.

My mission is to guide people through the process of becoming stronger, more confident, and more capable — regardless of their starting point. I want to provide the knowledge, structure, and support that I wish I had when I was first beginning my own journey.

Whether you are taking your first steps into calisthenics or looking to reach a higher level of performance, I will help you build the strength, skills, and mindset needed to keep progressing.

For me, calisthenics has never been just about performing impressive skills or achieving physical milestones. It represents discipline, growth, and the constant pursuit of becoming better than I was yesterday.

My goal is to share my experience, inspire others, and prove that with the right guidance and commitment, your body can become one of the most powerful tools you have.
