Thank you for posting as I have used some of the techniques since January with very good results,lost weight and reduced joint pain so much so that I no longer use NSAIDS-thanks.
Wow the more I wach the more I enjoy this workout, it combines four workout genres Ive been using over the last year, kettlebells, pilates, yoga, and calisthenics... fun!
You inspire me to work towards something tougher. I don't have a lot of equipment, just some weights, and you've showed some pretty intense stuff on here. Now, time to get to work! Thanks! Cheers!
Wow! it looks so easy when you do that! im fighting with my wobbly bits and kind of proud of my deadlifts and squats! Good inspiration to watch performances like yours! Thx
Bro i'm a MMA fighter and i want to thank you so much for these videos , great ideas , i search almost everything about strength and your style is so unique , congrats , keep doing what you're doing !
This is an insanely sick workout! Fantastic moves. I'm going to try a few tonight and work my way up to some of the more advanced ones. Off to view part 2...
There's so many great strength building movements in your vids. I'd love to see a series of vids where you separate them into continuous workout routines. Functional strength is where it's at. Kudos bro.
It can be used for all. It will help you build balance and stability to be a total athlete. When training for any sport, make your focus to be a total athlete who happens to do a sport.
Thank you! That is something we will try and do. We are trying just to get another video up, but between training our clients and ourselves is so hard to find time just to get one video on. But we will get on that asap
I love the Turkish get ups! For my training, i always start with a weighted carry or movement, either farmer walks or the Turkish Get Ups. However, i only stick with 10 reps 1 set for each side, then I start my training.
Very nice. Workouts have come a long way sinse I was a kid. Im 39 doing the P90x and even this is different than what I was used to doing. This just looks insane. Im afraid Id pull a muscle or a disc with some of the medicine ball moves. Keep up the good work.
Hey bro, really awesome and nice. Thanks for uploading. I do have couple of question. What are the benefits of this type of stretching. In this video there are numerous exercise, so little confuse what exercise should we perform and when.
@FBFTheRagingWarrior I could be wrong, but when you use the arms, forearms and hands quite thoroughly in a workout session, it can make them shake afterwards, it can help to stretch after your workout, and when you shower afterwards, make sure they're warmed up, it helps relax the muscles. hope that helps :)
I envy this guy a lot. My feet can't take a lot of these exercises, and I haven't been weightlifting long enough to go for the others. Got to work up on my circuit courses.
@SuperPavian Not all. In fact you can make yourself seem heavier by changing the angles of movements. Example L-Pullups are much more demanding then traditional ones.
hey chief! Amazing videos................. i am really really interested on what you would suggest as a routine for an intermediate using bodyweight exercises? What would you typically do from week to week?
That's awesome, it really is. I do crossfit but honestly, for me, the physiques one gets from ONLY doing crossfit just doesn't cut it for me. I'm trying to make it even with crossfit and heavy weight work. Right or wrong, that gets me the physique I want.
Training in this way since 2006. Did the whole split body thing before that, but found this more enjoyable and better. My height is 5.7 1/2 and im 172.2
I think i'll try the reverse push-ups they look fun, great video it's given me alot of ideas, im scrapping my muscle building training and i want strength not pure size, too many people these days try just look big i think
hey man insane stuff!!! it sucks to live too far away from your gym...any good books you can recommend to design my own training program? i want to get into more functional stuff (i dont like the bodybuilder mentallity...)like these with the kettlebells, bodyweight training,rings and all that but i dont knoow where to start!!!...theres like a million excercices out there and i dont know how to choose the right ones for me and how to train smart and keep progressing...thanks for being so cool
Another kind of strength training is to eat slightly cooked turnips with garlic, & a side order of navy beans. Wash it all down with Dr. Pepper. Wait aproximately 30 minutes for maximum effect.
@philinmotion Thank you. I can see why some people would be nervous of injuries. However, we progress out clients to be able to do move such as these or some that are even more advanced. We take pride that our clients whom ages range from 7 to 87. are able to do some sort of real life conditioning at any level. and that they are all injury free! I myself ever since i conditioning this way have actually helped get ride of all my old injuries that i had got from traditional exercises.
If you have healthy hips and good balance, the pistols are great. Because there is no sheer for on the patella going forwards pistols are not bad for your knee, that being said, if done with poor form, pistols can be damaging to your knee. As far as the trip wires and Bruce Lee Push Ups i don't believe they are. Hope this helps.
@Bazgann if i was doing a metabolic conditioning then i agree wearing shorts would be better to sweat less to not lose to much water weight. Most of the conditioning here does involve bare foot shoes. But this video is 6 years ago and was on a carpet, so wrestling shoes were more ideal, also there was concrete under the carpet. Now we have rubber interlocking flooring so bare foot or Vibrams are worn. Thanks for watching the video.
@MrNativeDancer Also, body weight training as well as kettlebell training, when done proper will keep you injury free. Thats what training really comes down to. We want to be able to move pain free. Train With A Purpose.
@JcRealz1 not at all actually. If jumping right into this type of conditioning it can be hard on anyones back if they don't have a good foundation of core stability. (hips, lower back, TVA etc) But this style of conditioning really helps with daily activities. Not that one would crawl around the floor on a daily basis but putting the body in such situations helps it to react better.
Loved dat kettle-bell form. Ya just cant see a snatch that smooth nowadays. Improvision on the one arm push ups were friggin epic too. Keep up de good work man!! XDD
@jorge3122I'm really liking this exercises. I'm going to start a routine for this. Quick question though: I know there are a lot of exercises here, but what do you think should be like a good number of exercises done per day? or does it depend on which exercises you combine on a routine? I got the number of sets and reps almost figured out. I would appreciate any info. Thanks for the video.
Very good stuff! I'll definetelyadd many of those exercises to my MMA training! btw if you don't mind me asking...how much do you weight and how tall are you?
One of the best books out there to get started with is The Naked Warrior. You are golden with any books by Pavel, Dan John, or Mike Boyle. But started with the Naked Warrior First then move to Power to the People.
@bkedp Rings are awesome, for muscle ups, hand stands etc, can also be used for push ups and the like too if you want. They're also not a total rip off....
@bkedp It's great to use both. We have the TRX and the rings. I prefer the rings for Muscle Ups and Chest Movements. Both allow you to do exercises the others do not.
@Natebubba Thats for sure, you need to have a great foundation to do many of these work outs, i've been fit and weightlifting for YEARS and i can't do some of that stuff nearly as efficiently as he can, he has some TRUE strength.
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!! I gots a long way to go before I get to that level of fitness but you are my inspiration!!!!!!!!! Phenominal exercises. Did you do more of interval training or was it sets with a specific amount of reps or did you just do a full round of a set amount one time through? Just curious
@cjohnson596 Thanks! Thats what we aim at at our studio. A combination of everything we can. Its more or less we ask our clients how they are feeling that day and we do what ever. Most of all over the last 5 years. OUr clients have been injury free and thats what we pride ourselves in.
Results can be felt with in a week. Your body responds pretty fast. YOu can feel stronger> its almost like your brain wakes up and realizes that it needs certian fibers to do certain movements. Its called Motor Recruitment. start with basics in body weight training and master movements. Also, put a big focus on grip training.
@MrNativeDancer Yes it is true that size has nothing to do with actual strength. Granted you have many in gyms who are massive and put up impressive numbers with the bench press and squats etc. But for my training and that of my clients it comes down to useful strength. Strength thats gonna help you with age slower and keep you feeling young. Yes most do not have stamina, however, you take those who do strong man comps...they tend to have a good amount of it. Its all in the training.
@TLBxSaiyanify Always the basics are great. Master a push-up. make it perfect. Pull ups WITHOUT rounding the shoulder at the top. Work on scapula retraction. As far as jumping for some of these moves, work more towards mastering landing first. Most people who work towards adding plyos in their routines become injured due to poor landing techniques. Hand strength is also extremely important. Full body compression planks are a must. Even Bear crawls. Try working your way up to 20 mins
@illeststyles i'd say it depends how you feel health-wise, i'd speak to a doctor first or somebody who knows as your playing with your natural body clock you don't want your brain or body timing out on you during this kind of training. not that you may feel tired but you might have a stroke or something.
@Workhard1994 Instead of one complete training session, these are more of ideas from people to choose from. If you have good shoulder and hip stability with great body control, the sky is the limit. Chose from a few of them, making sure you have a balance between Pushing and Pulling. I prefer a 2 to 1 ratio of Puling to Pushing. Chose from movements that require bracing and those that require complete core activation through body movements.
Who is this guy? He is very strong in a well rounded way. I want to be strong everywhere, but I find it hard to fit all exercises in, in order to become that. I mean, is it better to train one aspect at the time and get to a high level, then move on to the next, or all of them simultaniously?
@jamesykt69 Thank you james, a lot of it isnt for beginners, it's just samples of what I do for my own training and what some of my advanced clients do.
This is an amazing set of exercises. Awesome core strength. Thanks for sharing these.

Wow! it looks so easy when you do that! im fighting with my wobbly bits and kind of proud of my deadlifts and squats! Good inspiration to watch performances like yours! Thx

Jorge: you're beyond human..vaya, una máquina!..I'll try to include some of these exercises...and the other ones will be in my goal list, thnks!
I have only one thing here to say. You are STRONG.

Thank you so much for posting this. I am studying fitness currently and this is really inspiring me
great strenght, balance and control impressive!!!
Dude, you are STRONG!!!
song is honest joe from throttlerod.. one of the best workouts i've seen in youtube, well done !
Almost all kick ass moves are shown here. Cheers
@FBFTheRagingWarrior I could be wrong, but when you use the arms, forearms and hands quite thoroughly in a workout session, it can make them shake afterwards, it can help to stretch after your workout, and when you shower afterwards, make sure they're warmed up, it helps relax the muscles. hope that helps :)
I envy this guy a lot. My feet can't take a lot of these exercises, and I haven't been weightlifting long enough to go for the others. Got to work up on my circuit courses.
that was a great workout, i'll be using some of techniques in my own programme, keep up the good work
@SuperPavian Not all. In fact you can make yourself seem heavier by changing the angles of movements. Example L-Pullups are much more demanding then traditional ones.
This is an awsome stuff for any kind of sport and any martia,art..Bro, can you also tell the perfect diet to perform this
nice workouts and really advanced.
hey chief! Amazing videos.................
i am really really interested on what you would suggest as a routine for an intermediate using bodyweight exercises?

That's awesome, it really is. I do crossfit but honestly, for me, the physiques one gets from ONLY doing crossfit just doesn't cut it for me. I'm trying to make it even with crossfit and heavy weight work. Right or wrong, that gets me the physique I want.

Great work.

Pure balance in this vid Nice work !
holy shit nice strenght, lawn mowner abs and hamstring drops are some of the hardest shit
If you have healthy hips and good balance, the pistols are great. Because there is no sheer for on the patella going forwards pistols are not bad for your knee, that being said, if done with poor form, pistols can be damaging to your knee. As far as the trip wires and Bruce Lee Push Ups i don't believe they are. Hope this helps.
Great video!!! wish i had a bigger place to do the rope climb.
@Bazgann if i was doing a metabolic conditioning then i agree wearing shorts would be better to sweat less to not lose to much water weight.

I found that out a few months after making that mistake, but thank you for your correction

@CrossfitRJG Thanks boss. We have a ton more videos coming. Check out part 2 and 3. I saw your site. Amazing Strength!
omg dude!... You rock so hard. How, where did you train that you reached such results? Did went to gym?
I think it's just awesome. And contrary to what some people tend to believe about it being dammageable, I tend to think it's the extreme opposite.
Crazy Workout !!!!Woouuu thanks for the video
@bkedp Rings are awesome, for muscle ups, hand stands etc, can also be used for push ups and the like too if you want.
They're also not a total rip off....
excellent workout ,thanks for sharing!
@bkedp It's great to use both. We have the TRX and the rings. I prefer the rings for Muscle Ups and Chest Movements. Both allow you to do exercises the others do not.
@bmahy1 yes work on any deep calve stretches that allows you to elongate the Achilles heal. a great one for that is down dog in yoga.
@Natebubba Thats for sure, you need to have a great foundation to do many of these work outs, i've been fit and weightlifting for YEARS and i can't do some of that stuff nearly as efficiently as he can, he has some TRUE strength.
Believe it or not, my knees feel amazing. My training varies from plyos to stabilization.
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!! I gots a long way to go before I get to that level of fitness but you are my inspiration!!!!!!!!! Phenominal exercises. Did you do more of interval training or was it sets with a specific amount of reps or did you just do a full round of a set amount one time through? Just curious
For me doing the turkish get ups is the hardest doing 10 of those in 3 sets and that's alternative 3 sets in your right and 3 sets in left
Awesome video!! Thank you for sharing a sick display of ideas!
I don't think people get how hard a swiss ball squat is... almost impossible. Great job keep it up!
great workout.. even if i don't understand the benefits of some exercises..
wonderfull workout,will include in my workout! Thank you for sharing!
@cjohnson596 Thanks! Thats what we aim at at our studio. A combination of everything we can. Its more or less we ask our clients how they are feeling that day and we do what ever. Most of all over the last 5 years. OUr clients have been injury free and thats what we pride ourselves in.
Excellent training my friend.

@Dunnie771 the reverse push-ups are great. I'm glad you emjoy the video. Check out parts 2 and 3 as well

It's a power wheel. They are amazing! Found it on Power Systems or Perform Better

This is monstrous stuff. Excellent video. This is definitely going on the Facebook Page - Physical Training for Parkour

I find I get even more out of trip wires when I do them on a railing.

very helpful xercise for ol athlete
@bkedp yes using rings improves core strength and stability
