What is the difference between Streetlifting and Weighted Calisthenics?

​

Understandably there might be some confusion as to the difference between these two disciplines. From an outside view, both look very similar.

 

Both disciplines involve bodyweight exercises such as pull-ups, chin-ups, and dips where the intensity is increased by the addition of extra weight. But the similarities end here. 

​

The main difference between streetlifting and calisthenics is that streetlifting is a competitive endeavor while weighted calisthenics is a training method where the primary purpose is to increase strength, muscle mass, and overall body coordination. 

​

In order to perform well in a streetlifting competition one would train weighted calisthenics to gain the necessary strength for winning. In a way, streetlifting is a sub-category of weighted calisthenics where athletes measure up to each other as to who is the strongest.
