Hey yall! We posted some links to examples of these products in the description. We kept everything to the more inexpensive side on Amazon. If you're looking for higher quality products I recommend checking out Rogue Fitness (or any competitor). If I could recommend one thing over anything else it's to get somewhere to hang from at home! What did we miss? What do you enjoy using that doesn't break the bank? Let us know in a comment below. P.S. We are thinking about doing this same video with some mid-range products... 100-400$ would you be interested? let us know.

Honestly a tennis racquet is great. Much more fun than jogging. Only need 1 friend to play tennis with. Most parks and highschool courts are free and decent shape. Probably like $50-$100 for a decent entry level racquet or a better used one. Nothing wrong with used equipment. Good way to save money.

I'll also vote for cones, low hurdles and a yoga mat. Sometimes I bring these items out to a basketball or tennis court along with my phone water bottle and speaker and you can create a real nice cardio and core circuit style workout (60 seconds rope, 30 seconds cones/hurdles, 30 seconds crunches/leg raises on the mat, 60 seconds water and rest, do it again, repeat cycle for 30 minutes). I've done this at hotels even with just my jump rope and some of their bigger pool towels

One of the things that I so INcredibly appreciate about you guys, is your focus on primal movement. This is what so many people in our times not only miss out on, but also don't appreciate. It's incredible how much improvement I had just by putting more effort into my everyday movements. Life and body just by doing more and consciously putting effort into my everyday doings and movements. These subtle changes and attention into making full movement into everyday happenings, made remarkable differences in my health and wellness. Thanks for everything you do and all the effort you put into this, I've shared this channel with my family, especially my kids, and friends!😊💜

Solid advice for beginners or people wanting to explore other realms of fitness. I have a 20 lbs weight vest, dip belt, wooden gymnastics rings, and bands with 5 levels of resistance. They are extremely beneficial. The rings and bands are so versatile and are probably the biggest contribution to my gains.

@Candolad Жыл бұрын

This is brilliant guys. I've been doing calisthenics for about a year. Slowly progressing. I use rings, bands and parallettes. I love using rings because I can just hook 'em onto a tree in the park and away I go. Consistency, determination, patience and time are emphatically required with calisthenics. Rushing it is some guys' biggest mistake.

I have pretty much all of that equipment, but the slant board definitely looks interesting, and I would love to try that. Couple of things I would add especially for people just starting out calisthenics, are wrist wraps/guards, gloves if your doing exercises outside on concrete like me, and the right clothing. I think people overlook a good pair of compression shorts and a breathable shirt. I used to work out in like basketball shorts and some old t shirt thats been laying around my closet. Then I invested in a proper pair of compression shorts (shorts with a liner basically) and a breathable jersey/shirt, and it made me not only do more reps, but i did more comfortably with less fatigue. Awesome post guys!

Rings are great not because of their instability but in spite of it. The versatility and freedom of movement they allow is unmatched, and ring exercises provide a potent strength and hypertrophic stimulus in addition to developing kinesthetic awareness while being easier on the joints for some movements due to their lack of rigidity. The vast benefits of rings make them extremely worth it.

i`m so happy for all the inspiration. Today I made it a goal to do handstand within a year. I do have ME/cfs and can not train strenght or condition, but streching seems to actually make my health a bit better. even if I have to go very very slow. Also I sold all my stuff 1.5 years ago and have been fulltime travelling since. And I.m so inspired by the things you do without too much equipment... it`s very helpful. I also found that a lot of the joy of life for me is in not having plans... but to keep mye future and days open. It took me many years to find this natural joy of life back, like we all had as children... not knowing what tomorrow brings.. it`s not very highlighted in our culture. :D Best wishes and thanks for the deep divings, inspiration, learning and your open sharings.

Doorway pullup bars are great - I still have my old one - but when we lost our house to flooding 7-1/2 years ago, our new home didn't have sills on it where I could hang it, so they're not practical in every living situation - it depends on your house or apartment. This is where having heavy-duty brackets I could mount on the double joist in my basement, and either slide a piece of 1" dowelling through or hang gymnastic rings from, really saved me.

Great video as usual! This suggestion is more of a home made minimalist idea. The latest minimal equipment I added was converting foot long shelf brackets into a dip bar. find your 16" oc studs in your house or maybe 20-24" in your garage and drill the shelf brackets in and walah!!! I do want to mention that I drilled mine into exposed studs in my garage so it allows me to lean forward. Not sure if it would work well without that allowance. I had a rag on each bracket for more comfort. I put dips high up on the calisthetic pedestal along with squats, pushups, and pull ups. I'm sure there are other home made alternatives or you can go the Amazon route!

Great point on the tripod/camera to record yourself. I recorded my workout yesterday for the first time and was so surprised with what I saw. I use my phone for guided workouts with voiceovers that make it easy to follow a workout for the first time including rest periods and warnings for upcoming switches so I used my gopro. The wide lens was super helpful since I didn't have my tripod but had a few things to set the camera on. Reviewing the footage was painful and felt time consuming but was also quite revealing for form improvements. I'd be interested to see more detail around the ways you use your workout journal. I'm finding with the current program I'm doing, I haven't been tracking my reps/sets/times or anything about how I feel. Previously, I had built my program using a workout and manually entered it into an app called strong. It was mostly just tracking exercise sets and reps. A paper journal might be a good option since I'm already using my phone

Excited about the equipment and may have to use what's available in the limited environment which is not my own. The resistance bands are helpful and used them in the hotel recently received from my daughters. I work out my upper body strength and additional a chair 🪑 for lower body strength.

As a climber, I just use my harness instead of a dip belt in order to add weight to exercises. So if you're into climbing, just invest in a harness and you got a 2 for 1 tool. For kettlebells I have ones that are filled with sand and come as a set in a duffle bag thing, so you can change out the number of kettle bells in the bag to get it up to 50lbs for sandbag cleans or rows, or carrying.
