Sydneysider Bjorn Santos, a registered nurse, professional guitarist, and calisthenics coach, has mastered juggling these three demanding roles since launching his online coaching side hustle in 2019.


Key Points

  • Bjorn Santos' foray into calisthenics taps into a lucrative market; in 2025, the revenue of the Gym and Training market in Australia is forecast to reach US $731.05 m (Statista).
  • According to Santos, his core rule for maintaining balance is eliminating unnecessary activities such as social media scrolling to protect his focus.
  • To successfully launch his online coaching gym 'Los Santos workout,' Santos carved out time for a calisthenics course before applying for an Australian Business Number (ABN).
Sa calisthenics, ginagawa ko ito para sa sarili, para malampasan ko ang haharapin ko sa buhay. Mahirap pero dahil masaya ka, gagawin mo siya.
