Abstract: The authors tested the balancing capability of 20 ordinary college students and 20 physical education majoring students in the control group and 20 high level exercising calisthenic athletes and 20 high level competi-tive calisthenic athletes in the experiment group in three conditions (calm condition, the moment right after aerobic exercise and the moment right after anaerobic exercise), and revealed the following findings: The training for exer-cising calisthenics and competitive calisthenics couldn’t improve the balancing capability in a calm condition, but the balancing capability at the moment right after aerobic exercise was significantly enhanced; the balancing capa-bility of females students was better than that of male students in a calm condition and at the moment right after aerobic exercise, but significantly declined at the moment right after anaerobic exercise. These findings can be used as theoretical criteria for selecting and training female students for competitive calisthenics.Key words: competitive calisthenics；exercising calisthenics；balancing capability；fall index
