Protagonist is a calisthenics app that breaks every skill into small, doable steps. Pick a skill, do the exercises, land it, rank up.

  • Android · Google Play
  • 10 ranks
  • Mobility included

How it works

One skill. Small steps.
Then the real thing.

Big skills look impossible because you only ever see the finish. Protagonist shows you the whole staircase and hands you the next step.

  1. Pick a skill

    Your Skill Wall holds every skill, grouped into Pull, Push and Core. Choose the one you're chasing — Dips, L-Sit, Muscle-Up, Handstand.

  2. Climb the steps

    Every skill is a ladder of exercises. For Dips that's assisted, then negatives, then the full rep. Sets, rounds and session length are planned for you.

  3. Land it. Rank up.

    After each session the app asks if you landed it. Mark the skill achieved, watch your wall fill up, and climb from Zero toward Protagonist.

Level up

From Zero
to Protagonist.

Every skill you land counts toward your next rank. Ten ranks, each with its own character and a description of where you are right now.

    Mobility

    Warm up.
    Cool down.
    Stay bendy.

    Good mobility is crucial for progression. Protagonist comes with timed mobility routines to run before a session to prep your joints, or after it to cool down.

    • Upper body

      Wrist saver, push prep, relax upper body.

    • Lower body

      Hip openers and ankle rocks.

    • Full body

      Cat-cow flow and more to come.

    Short or long — every routine is timed, so you just press start.

    FAQ

    Questions, answered.

    What about the price?

    Since app does not have advances features we made it free: skills, ranks and mobility routines.

    Do I need to be strong already?

    No. Everyone starts at Rank 1: Zero. Each skill begins with an easier step, but if you already have basic skills you can set them achieved and start on a higher level.

    What if I am intermediate in calisthenics? Do I need to start from zero?

    No. You can just mark skills that you landed on a SkillWall and immediately get your level.
