One of my favorite’ do what you want workouts’ is something I call ‘Rock and Walk’. Start the day with walk along a river or in the forest and hills; stop pick up a large rock and do presses or squats or curls ... actually a bit of everything depending on the size of the rock I choose at that point ... then move along, walk some more and look for another rock for squats or presses etc. Maybe some push-ups between boulders and often some chin ups or body rows off a tree branch. More of a "get the body moving" workout -- not intended to replace a good weight workout, but gets the muscles moving and you, too. Often about 45 minutes of walking and lifting, but can be shorter or longer depending on how I feel. Reps usually in the 8-20 range, but rarely train close to failure on any of the exercises. If some hills I may add a few sprints as well. You get the point..some exercise and often some fun. Great video once again Dan!
I do something very similar with a big stretch of open desert next to my neighborhood. Another fun "no brainer" workout (requires no brain power to program) is to just grab a rock and carry it for a mile or so. A 70-80# rock does the trick pretty well. 20ish minutes and the workout box is checked.
Hi John. I'm 6"6 (200cm) tall and in my house I cannot do the ABC because i hit the ceiling when dong the overhead press. Do you think its okay to kettlebell overhead press with bent knees? or any other solutuions apart from doing it outside? Thank you
That’s an interesting idea. Look up the phrase, half kneeling press, that might be a good adaption for you also. Being tall has massive advantages until you try to lift indoors.
@@DanJohnStrengthCoach Thank you. Great idea. How would you program that into the traditional EMOM ABC? Since it would take longer due to having to kneel down. Or would you say to just keep the structure of the workout the same despite the overhead press variation? Thank you
Maybe just do the cleans and squats. Add the half kneeling on the other days. I don't have a great answer, but the squats are always hard for tall people.
@@DanJohnStrengthCoach the guy above wrote in Russian. It's cool to listen the opinion of a competent person. Thank you very much. And on the off chance he's based in their capital I was asking if he knows any good gyms.

That is just so nice of you to share this with us. I'm a bit jealous, but this is a great idea.

Круто послушать мнение компетентного человека . Огромное спасибо .
If you happen to know any gyms in Moscow with this sort of thinking please share?
I have no idea what this means...sorry.
