Here are some exercises that (unexpectedly) made my life easier! "Hybrid Fitness Routine" is free on my website and linked on my profile if you're looking for one. No login needed, so feel free to just check it out! I tried to pick exercises in this video that weren't the obvious ones, like bar hanging etc. I also didn't mention ones that reduced pain, since I feel like that's a slightly different topic. Straight arm lifting helped more things feel lighter, especially during manual labor. While the same muscles are worked during things like pushups, pullups, handstand pushups, etc, it just made a huge different even with a small amount of weight. The "curl position" is underrated for daily functionality, in my opinion. I got into fitness with calisthenics, so I never paid much attention to curls until I started doing isometrics. While curls are usually meant to grow the bicep, I've found it to be very handy for carrying things as well. Lastly, I've been doing more physical labor recently and it often involves squatting down in "unusual" ways. While we don't NEED this, it's convenient when I'm in a hurry. The alternative would be to move one thing at a time, etc. However, if you're new to this, I recommend getting comfortable with multiple full, deep, bodyweight squats first if you haven't done so already! That's what I have for now. Have a wonderful day!

Bro dissed the bodybuilder haters in the nicest way possible

I tell people "I just want to work out so I can make my body do what I want." Turns out I just want the Hampton-type fitness. Thank you for being my goal 🙌

Bro proved how useful exercising is

Your vibe and disposition make me very happy. You seem like a cheerful person and there’s something comforting about you.

This man just pistol squats like it's nothing...well you know what. One day 🤩

Balancing on a rounded object, in flip flops, while carrying something one handed to throw off your center of gravity… That was a hard flex sir, and I tip my hat to you.

As a gardener, these tips are very useful. The weird positions I have to hold at times, lifting something while avoiding sensitive plants

As someone who has a bachelors in kinesiology and in masters degree in exercise science I appreciate what this guy is doing. He gives some good detail to back up his claims.

Why does his voice just make me happy?😄

Very true! These odd exercises seem to have no use until you realize these are movements you actually USE, all day long. You might not be lifting a log, but you might be lifting a heavy toddler, and exercising those muscles will make these things easier😊

I use to watch you and had bad knees and my knowledge of anatomy and when I use to watch you explain simple knowledge that makes total sense has helped me build muscle these 7 months working out shoot my balance has gotten better I no longer complain about how my body hurts when I do squats appreciate it bro you helping people out here fr fr

Not this guy squatting on ONE LEG so casually 😭 I strive to be this flexy

It’s so nice to see him put on muscle as a purely functional need

Imagine you drop something on the street and this guy comes and picks it up for you doing a dragon squat

Have a beautiful day! Thank you for your delivery and explanation..... YOU ROCK!

I love this way of giving people advice in short clips. Probably one of my favorite trends so far, I absorb everything so much better! Commenting to keep it in my feed ❤️

I love that you teach us with good vibes, always!

I love how he’s outside incorporating things from life and nature too! 💪 God bless! 😇

The positive energy radiating off this man is insane

You and, "stay flexy", should do a team-up.

Holding a baby for long periods of time is definitely a different kind of exercise. I feel like the nerves in my one arm are dead 😅

I love your energy so much- ive finally made progress on my shoulder mobility so I've needed some new exercises Hearing that unusual form squats are good too actually makes me feel better lol

This made my day infinitely better. Your positive approach to fitness made me feel so much better about my body and made me excited to work out. It’s nice hearing about working out being a neutral and helpful thing not something to shape and sculpt the body. Especially since I struggle with body image issues and an eating disorder.

This is so wholesome and informative, thanks bro your brightening the world with every video

Thank you for making my day and teaching me something I didn't know

I'm jealous of this man's will for self-improvement

Even if I don't exercise, I love just watching his shorts They are so soothing

Sound advice, clear presentation, doesn’t hate on other people

How was this video SO educational and entertaining simultaneously? Hamptom never ceases to amazes me with his continued creativity and humor. Every video is always different and fun and I learn so much. 💙

finally, a legit, informational, and to the point video that we can actually apply - no ad, no gimmick, no click bait.

Your perspective is so helpful; it often just clicks when I hear you reasoning through these sort of explanations

One of THE BEST work out tips I have ever seen!

I love your content sm ❤️ have a wonderful day!✨️

Why does he come across so sweet n wholesome. I love it 😭

My friend, you are an inspiration. Using your advice, I switched to zero-drop toe box shoes and worked on lower into a squat. Now, after 6 months, I can rest in a squat and slowly, slowly stand up to maximize strength. I have moderately severe osteoarthritis in my knees and am 60 years old, so this is a really big deal. My knees have gone from being weak and stiff to being strong and pain-free. It has not been easy, but the progress has been paying off in much greater comfort and mobility.

You ~ are ~ so ~ cool! I never thought about doing squats like that! Thank you!! 🎉 Thanks for being you! 🎉

I’ve been doing your routine for about a month now, also using the website, and it’s become an integral part of a bigger life change. Your approach just makes it work. Thank you so much for everything you do man.

Bro you have the coolest, most chill channel I've ever ran across. Please don't ever stop making content, it's top tier! Stay up my guy!

Bro the casual pistol leg squats thoooooo!!!

You are extremely likable. I appreciate your knowledge. You are helping. ❤

Curling is also very useful training for holding babies and kids. You need to be in that position sometimes for hours.

⭐️Love your simplicity that you make things.. Makes us believe we can do it too. And the comedy. 😄 with the practicality!

Easily one of the best KZfaq pages on all of KZfaq. Incredible energy, easily viewable by a very large demographic naturally not forced, kind, gentle, mild, fun, positive, real, It's just so great to see you again Hampton!

The way squats and curls have helped me SO much as mother. Being able to squat down and pick up my two toddlers (both in the 80-90th percentile wieghing a total of about 80lbs) became a hell of a lot easier once I started working out frequently.

I really wish they would’ve gotten you for that Jubilee video with Fit and Fat influencers in the industry

Please keep these videos coming! You are easy to learn from. Your given examples make your points logical.

Thanks for the wonderful attitude as always, Hampton.

I took taekwondo a few years back, and one of the moves they teach you is a side kick, which has been surprisingly useful for a lot of not taekwondo related, like ballencing a laundry basket on my leg while i open door's.

You are ridiculously likable and come across as a genuinely kind and sweet person who communicates what he is genuinely passionate about. More of this is always, always welcome

This is what really makes me happy. How exercise can be useful in our daily life.

This was super helpful and motivating!!! Makes me feel good about the work I am doing

You’re getting bigger nice bro

He lives free in them zoris

Nail on the head again. Great channel, create advice.

I always appreciate your content, thank you for what you do. 🙇‍♂️

hell yeah

Nice smile

Thank you sir. I can do these at work. Awesome!

You are amazing and this is really helpful. Thanks!

This guy has such a fun voice 🤩

I haven't used any advices given in his videos so far. I just like watching this guy.

Bro when you slid your foot across the deck I got shivers, splinters are real

Now this is a quality Short. 👍

Yes! I started training with my bodybuilding husband last year. I was amazed when we moved and had to do it by ourselves how my body held up when I knew before starting training it wouldn’t have through that day. When I stopped for awhile due to my job schedule I noticed how much easier my strength had made everyday life as my muscles weakened. Im back in it again though! Love this

Cool video man. I just liked and subscribed.

Thought you'd gone dude. Missed your chill videos. Finally started hitting the gym, so learning some tips on a healthy way is something I'm really keen on. Love ya dude

I always enjoy your videos!

Love the way he explains this with good energy 😊

This has definitely made me rethink rhese exercises, I do them but never considered why I do them.

One of the best channels out I’m not gonna lie

He’s so cute. I like how he speaks. 🥰😍😍😍

The “maybe one day ill own matching weights” is such a mood lmao

you can tell his advice and perspective really works with just how smooth, swift, and controlled his movements are. especially with the more impressive feats like balancing on a thin pole in flip flops while carrying a heavy object in one hand. this dude is pure grace

I really appreciate and love the logistics neededdd

Always helpful to see this kinda stuff, good motivation

''maybe one day i'll own matching weights'' is so relatable 😅

The voice crack on “BeAuTiFuL dAy” made it all the sweeter

Bro, you are a gem! Love you videos

Excellent. Not enuf people focus on the most important thing about muscles, Function!

This out of the box thinking got you a new subscriber. This sort of training is right up my alley! Smart and functional, I love it!

Isometric bicep curls are great! Helped break a plateau in my bicep growth. My training was holding my daughter almost every outing, walk, etc. “some day she’ll never want to be held” was my mantra to push through the pain!

Agreed. I rarely work out, but I do move in weird ways a lot.

love your vids man

Hahaha, great job. Smart Fun and entertaining .

Big Hampton. Been seeing your videos for years my man. Keep it up

How does this guy flex his strength SO HARD but so subtly, kindly, and gently.

Smooth as baby shhh.. this man is lethal yet very humble

Number one reason I prefer strength exercise, it improves everyday life 💪

Man your so nice as soon as you ended with have a beautiful day I liked and subscribed

I never liked and subscribed this quickly!!! Very impressive, I want to do that!

Dude I just found this video and I already know everything that’s said is true 😭❤️

I subscribed based on those pistol squats alone

I love watching these videos while laying on my bed in a comatose state.

Hey im glad you’re on youtube shorts too :)

I love how he talks. Hahaha so cute

First video I’ve seen of this guy and I’m already a fan!

I love this! Now Im motivated to lift. No one ever teaches functionality of body building in daily life like this (in my own feed at least). Way to motivate, making life easier is what motivates those of us that are "too busy in life for the gym."
