Three Guinness World Records In Two Years Aren’t Enough For Rain Chua

If you dislike going to the gym, you’re not alone.

Three-time Guinness World Record holder Rain Chua has an aversion for the gym too because “it’s too crowded”.

This and some impressive calisthenics videos on YouTube sparked the 26-year-old software engineer’s passion for this form of exercise that consists of a variety of movements which targets000 large muscle groups.

Requiring minimal equipment, these exercises make use of one’s body weight instead to build muscle.

“What I love most about calisthenics is that you can do it anywhere,” says Rain.
