Build a Complete Calisthenics Setup in a Small Space
Not everyone has the luxury of a dedicated home gym. For many, training space is limited, a spare room, a garage corner, a balcony or a patch of floor between the sofa and kitchen table. But the truth is, you don’t need much space to build serious strength, mobility and control. You just need the right tools and a training method that respects how your body is built to move.
That’s exactly what calisthenics offers, full-body, scalable training with minimal equipment. With the right kit, you can turn even the smallest footprint into a complete training zone.
The Gravity Fitness Small Space Calisthenics Bundle was created with this in mind. Every item is portable, compact and multipurpose, designed to help you train smarter — not just harder.
Why Small Space Calisthenics Works
Calisthenics focuses on bodyweight resistance, not machines or heavy plates. That instantly reduces the need for space. Movements like push-ups, pull-ups, dips, planks and holds can be performed on versatile equipment that doesn’t dominate your room or need bolting into floors or walls.
Better still, calisthenics training scales with your ability. By adjusting leverage, tempo and angles, you can make exercises harder without needing more load or more space. That means ongoing progression even with a minimalist setup.
This approach also improves proprioception, balance and joint health, because you’re constantly in control of your own body, not relying on external weights to guide your movement.
What’s in the Small Space Bundle, and Why It Works
XL Parallettes
The Gravity Fitness XL Parallettes are the foundation of any compact setup. With a small footprint and durable build, they open up a huge range of push, core and hold variations.
Use them for elevated push-ups, L-sits, tuck holds, handstand training, planche progressions, and core-intensive flows. The elevated grip reduces wrist strain and offers better joint alignment, making it ideal for both beginners and advanced athletes.
They’re also small enough to store under furniture, in a wardrobe or even take to the park.
Gymnastic Rings
If there’s one piece of kit that delivers unmatched upper body strength, it’s rings. The Gravity Fitness Wood Gym Rings are light, strong and portable — and they hang from any bar, beam, tree or pull-up rig.
Rings add instability, forcing your stabilisers and joints to work harder. Basic movements like rows, push-ups and dips instantly become more challenging. Advanced skills like muscle-ups, front levers and ring support holds can all be built progressively.
The best part? When you’re done, they roll up and pack away in seconds.
Resistance Bands
Bands don’t take up space — but they expand your training options massively. Use them for assisted pull-ups and dips, added resistance in push-ups or squats, or targeted mobility and rehab work.
The Gravity Fitness Resistance Bands are looped and latex-based for elasticity and control. They’re colour-coded by resistance level, so you can use them for warm-ups, strength work or skill progression.
They're also essential for joint prep and unlocking end range strength, a major advantage in bodyweight training.
Door Pull-Up Bar
If you have a door, you have a pull-up station. The Gravity Fitness Portable Doorway Pull-Up Bar requires no drilling or permanent fixtures. It locks securely onto most standard frames and allows you to train pull-ups, chin-ups, leg raises and more.
Pair this with bands and rings, and suddenly you’ve got a full vertical pulling station without needing a rack or rig.
The bar can also be used low to the ground for rows and push-up variations, making it one of the most versatile small-space tools available.
How to Structure Your Small Space Training
You don’t need more equipment — you need more intentionality. A small space forces you to focus on efficiency, technique and progression. Here’s how to make the most of it
Train movement patterns, not muscle groups
Think push, pull, hinge, squat, core and locomotion. Focus on improving your ability to move, control and stabilise across these patterns.
Use leverage to scale difficulty
Make exercises easier or harder by adjusting your body position. For example, move your feet further out in a row to increase resistance.
Master time under tension
Slowing down reps, pausing at key points and controlling the eccentric phase all make bodyweight training harder — no extra gear needed.
Include isometric holds
Use L-sits, planks, tuck holds and handstand progressions to build stability and full-body tension. These demand zero extra space but deliver big results.
Don’t neglect mobility
Your space might be small, but your range of motion shouldn’t be. Use bands and bodyweight flows to maintain joint health, especially if you’re sitting for long hours.
Who This Bundle Is For
This setup is ideal for
– Beginners who want to learn calisthenics with minimal investment
– Apartment dwellers or anyone without a garage or gym room
– Travellers, digital nomads or those on the move
– Busy professionals wanting time-efficient home training
– Advanced calisthenics athletes who want a portable solution
If you’ve got 2 square metres of floor space, a doorway and the will to move, you’re ready.
The Benefits Go Beyond Strength
Training in a small space builds more than muscle. It builds self-discipline, creativity and consistency. There are no machines to hide behind, no distractions. Just you, gravity, and your ability to show up.
And over time, that control transfers. You’ll move better, feel stronger, and develop a kind of physical confidence that’s hard to fake.
Final Word
You don’t need a huge space to train like an athlete. You just need the right tools and a mindset focused on mastery.
The Gravity Fitness Small Space Calisthenics Bundle gives you everything you need to build strength, mobility and skill — anywhere, anytime. No compromises. No clutter. Just efficient, intelligent training in the space you already have.
Build the body you want with less — and do more with it.
