I live out in the country, with very modest, basic, and humble gear in my basement, I think this is an absolutely amazing starting point for guys who have not done anything at all for a long time. Thanks for posting this bro. ❤️🔥❤️🔥
4 days ago I did the Ranger assessment 12 mile ruck, with boots and 45 lbs instead of 35 lbs. I wanted to see if these boys were doing things as hard as we did in 1st Batt back in the early 80s. The standard is 3 hours , I'm 58 years old and did it with 11 minutes to spare. Side note ; I'm having a real problem walking normally at the moment.
When I was a young man I started weight training , my manager at work was a bodybuilder so he gave me excellent advice . As I matured I took an interest in Tang soo do karate , I ran 3 times a week approximately 5 miles per session , with hard sprint up hill . I never drank or smoked and still don't . I believe I prepared my body for future fitness . At 60 im still pretty fit , no major issues and still try to push my body when working around the garden .
Alright, 9 months later I am onboard. I knew about this video for several months. I had my second back surgery back 2 months ago. I think I am physically ready to proceed now. To cut down on stuff I watch I take notes on what I do watch. I took plenty of notes. I think I will cut out #1 and #5 because I do those on separate days. I really need to build up my core strength. I really like this!
I actually have done something similar to this for about a year at this point. I'm not great but I can crank out 45 push ups, 20 pull ups, 20 chin ups and run a mile in 8ish minutes with 35lbs of gear.
@@TiagobritoBrito Just start moving/ working out. Exercise always helps with mental health. Starting is the hardest day/week. Full disclosure ...I'm watching this video because I just starting back up :)
Best is running stairs total body workout. Balances lower body. Uoper body heart lings are targeted but not the upper body muscle. But most bang for fitness buck. Its free.
Very cool workout. I’ve been doing this style of workout for a few years now because I have a park about 1 mile from my house: mile run, pushups/pullups/squats for 4-6 rounds, mile run. It has been a game changer for my fitness level, and I much prefer it to traditional strength training
i did this for two rounds 15 reps of each exercise and one minute break between the rounds, this is no joke i gassed out attempting to power through the third round, i will keep doing your workout, it seems easy at the first glance but it s not easy at all, keep going sir
Vital stuff. Like many, I’ve been neglectful of physician conditioning for a bit, but there is truly no better time to fix that. Do it for yourself, do it for your wife and kids, do it for your future!
Just what I needed to know right now. I've dropped 22kg of fat through diet and need to get my core strength up but can't afford a trainer. In a few months I'll add the gym for strength training, and cycle every other day to get up my aerobic. Looking forward for more info. Thank you.
Excellent tutorial and workout. All can be done beside your bed or in front of your TV. Other activities can replace the run. I’m probably 20 years older than you, I’m not fat but certainly not as fit as I used to be or could be, been working on it. Gets SO MUCH harder as you age. The trick: STAY FIT 😂. Thanks, love your videos!
I think most people undervalue body weight workouts because they've been led to believe that they NEED to get a gym membership and hit the weights and treadmill.
Best thing about the gym is the pool. I mean you don't need a pool in the summer if you live somewhere with open water but kinda necessary in the winter. Earth is like 75% water at some point not being a good swimmer is going to bite you as much as any other lack of fitness.
@@outlaw6429 i get you but this is a bit defeatist. if you weigh 200 lbs then pistol squat. if you still want more eight just hold a weight while doing it
I think this is true. It’s marketing mostly. You can get a couple of free weights a kettle bell or two, and do mostly that at home alongside body weight training and be in pretty good shape. The issues I have with the gym are the cost and the interim that keeps people from using it often enough to make a difference. I’ve known enough people who get a gym membership and go once a month or less that it’s really not worth the money. Most people don’t go. I’ll also give a shout to martial arts if available simply because group workouts do better.
@@captain_nello everything has its use. I do hybrid training after 8 years of developing different patterns of movement for myself through boxing, strongman, powerlifting, bodybuilding, calisthenics. My routines are mixed and no what idiots with 1 brain cell say about not getting anywhere by not focusing on one thing isn’t true. You can gain size , aesthetics and strength at the same time. You can develop power while building muscle, you can be athletic in the process. In fact I noticed explosive +heavy lifting does amazing things for the body. Not only do you look good but you feel like a fxckng machine.
I’m 59. I do 15 sit-ups, 15 pushups, 10 burpees and the ten body squats. 20 seconds in between sets. Repeat two more times. Takes me about 11 minutes. Then I spend 55 minutes on an elliptical. That’s three times a week. The other three days I run 3 miles per day. It’s at a 12-minute mile pace but I’m 238 pounds and I just started running again. Goal is 27 minutes. Gotta cut 18 more pounds. Carry on. Hopefully I’ll be at this level soon. I need more HIT training to increase my VO2 max.
Try this grinder and key is to not stop and rest AT ALL. 12 1 pump burpees 20 kb swings 12 navy seals 7 pull ups 30 squats 12 dips 30 lunges 25 4 count flutter kicks Get at least 5 rounds in, once you can do that add a weight vest, and work up to10 rounds.

You layed it out, short and clear and precise. You tell us the why in the movements and give us alternative for different levels of fitness for people. F'ing awesome bro! Been rucking and strength training for a year and losed 15lb, but i'm getting complacent. Time for the next level!

I was a Marine, and I was in shape... 12 years ago. I've since let myself go, but here I am back at it. I immediately sub'd and liked because people don't realize that when you're overweight, you can't simply WILL yourself to get thin again. You can't just do X and you'll be thin. They have probably never had to actually drop 80-100 pounds, so they only theorize based on their training regimen for their body condition. Grunt Proof is the first voice I've heard tell me "not" to go to the gym or eat healthy or whatever. All these things I've done and then, some. But moving my body weight? That's hard! I lift at the gym and eat my macros when I can, and drink them when I can't. But, I'm still not losing weight. I struggle with lung strengthening and fitness. I'm going to try this on my off-lift days because my gym (at work) doesn't have many lower-body stuff. It's okay, I'm carrying enough weight to facilitate impactful squats, flutter kicks, side- straddle hops, v-ups, etc. Thank you for this short, concise body weight regimen. I'm going for it! I want my fitness back!
Hey grunt, 1st video I've seen from you. I just did 10 rounds of 10 reps each and my God what a killer. I thought I was in shape due to lifting but now I see how far I need to go. Thank you and keep em coming.
WOW - I just found your channel, I thought being prior army that running was part of getting ready...until I have watched your videos. I started running again to get into shape at 55, I am pretty strong and thought I was in ok shape compared to others around me...but then I tried this workout ..wow thank you for showing me how out of shape I truly am. I have started rucking again and adding this to my workout. thank you again.
I have diabetic neuropathy in my feet. It really sucks to do any of this stuff because I can’t feel my toes anymore. I never realized how much I depended on them for balance. But I realize that I have to keep blood flowing through them and keep my weight in check. I will try the modified versions of this routine now. Thanks for sharing that. I would have skipped this if I didn’t see the modified version. I’m 63 as well and was a Marine for 20 years. I really miss running! I ran all my life and really enjoyed doing it. Now even walking is tough at times. Like they, enjoy your youth and keep moving. You’ll miss it when it’s gone!😊
I have been into strength training most of my life. For a soldier, extreme strength isn't really the goal, but you do need a good base level of strength. I think you don't need a gym membership, although that wouldn't hurt. A home gym with a couple of heavy adjustable dumbbells (at least up to 40kg a piece would be great), a couple of gymnastic rings and or pull up bar, maybe an incline bench, but that's not necessary. Make sure the pullup bar is very sturdy. Also get a few elastic bands for face pulls etc. Jump rope is also awesome. Great conditioning for your feet, great for hiking, great for everything. Some additional stuff you can make yourself: - a sled out of an old car tire. Put an eye bolt through the side with a piece of wood on the back, a washer and a nut. Use some strap or sling or cheap TRX like stuff. - a climbing rope is great. You can also use it to pull the sled in for a great back exercise. Don't leave it hanging in the rain, it will rot. Make sure you don't fall down. - a sandbag. Start light. Use an old kit bag / sailors bag. Put wood pellets or gravel into it. Zip tie it shut. Don't use sand, that makes a mess. Wood pellets and gravel also give it more bulk for a lower weight. That's a good thing. - wrist wroller, thick towel pull ups and rice bucket for grip training. - a hat and a weight plate for neck training. Don't neglect your neck. With the dumbbells and gymnastic rings you can do presses, rows, inverted rows, side bends, Bulgarian Split Squats, step ups, lunges, weighted jumps, single leg deadlifts, all sorts of isolation exercises, all sorts of special ring work. With the bands face pulls, triceps pushdowns and many other things. Pushups are great too, dios are awesome but you meed somewhere to do them. Tip: any corner on any sturdy handrailing will work pretty well. Not even touching on the exercises you can do with the other equipment. Strength training doesn't need to be expensive or take up much space. Pick a few exercises, pick a sensible routine, try to use double progression with the dumbells.
With my back and hips, I can't do any of this high impact stuff anymore. These days it's a 7 to 10 mile brisk walk in the mornings, and before dinner it's 1x100 pushups/30 sec rest/1x100 suspension strap rows/30 sec rest/1x100 sumo squats. Then I'm in the recliner the rest of the night.
Outstanding video brother! I’m 68 and I have ran 2-4 miles since I was 21. I like including the full body weight into the run time. I’ve never served but I’ve rode bulls and saddle broncos and qualified for the karate olympics (got eliminated) but still practice. I incorporated stretching before and after any workout. Thanks for additional layers to my workouts. However I don’t know where you are but any asphalt or concrete in SE Texas is 140 degrees so I’ll have to adjust where l lay or touch it. Thanks
In the USN back in the late 80's, i was in boot camp. I had joined the Navy at 3-5% body fat able to run 5 miles at the drop of a hat, and bicycle 100 miles in roughly 4.5 hours. The bootcamp was a step down with regard to physical fitness. The only time I got a good workout was when i got in trouble.... for not properly making my bunk before doing an extracurricular activity option one morning. The company commanders sent me to what was known as "IT". Intensive Training..... and FINALLY i got a good workout! And although it involved a lot of what they thought was intimidation, it was essentially THIS workout. I craved it. Needed it. When I got back to the barracks, i went directly to them and asked them (can't believe i had the nerve to do it, really, but it felt necessary....) if i could do that EVERY morning. :| The reaction involved a lot of screaming and threats about how it was supposed to be a G******ed PUNISHMENT!!! But this is well worth the time. Do it. Make the time. Probably ought to verify your ability to do it with the doc if you're really big....
This guy is FOS. Staining 22.5 mph over 4.5 hours without a draft is professional cyclist level fitness never mind the bike and gear that you did not have. And 3-5% is total bullshit. Professional body builders on the stage in competition do not get to 3% bodyfat. So, either this guy is a flat out liar or he has a delusional view of his younger self. Either way dude, what you "used to do" is irrelevant. What can you do now? That is what matters...
Much respect for your attitude and skill Randall, from time to tine i meet other bushcrafters and preppers out there in the woods, and physical preparedness is one thing alot of outdoor community doesnt take seriously enough, you have folks out here who cant see their dong over their belly when they wee wee, talking about preparing for SHTF, having a strong physique goes very far outdoors, it helps to create a cushion when you lay on hard ground, helps you carry all the weight easier, be able to evade any danger or kick butt if you have too. And most importantly, it gets everybody pregnant 😂👌 God bless.
Love the content already, and I'd love to see more in the vein of combat fitness. PT in the army i did everything I was told to do day by day but never really learned how to "work out".
Notes : •Run a 1 mile at a pace that will let you run it the whole distance • Squat Jumps , jump as high as you can while trying to land softly on your feet. • V ups , pretty much situps but lift your legs too • Mountain climbers , best to count every 2 steps as one. • bicycles , swing your core and make bicycle leg movements in the air ▪︎ push ups , put your hands directly under your shoulders and bend to 45° ▪︎ end with a jog
Been doing this kind of routine during the start of my track and field years starting in 2011 ended 2013. Did body weight workouts before hitting the gym for the first time. Started the gym at 2016 did it for one year. I stick to body workout ever since I was a teenager. Fit and strong 14 years counting!
I do this routine only on weekends. emom workout consisting of... minute 1) 10 push ups, 10 squats, 5 pulling/back exercise minute 2) shadow boxing/punching bags minute 3) passive/active rests doing this routine for about 15 minutes or 5 rounds (weekdays) - 45 minutes or 15 rounds (on weekends). For badass people do 60 minutes or 30 rounds - 75 minutes or 45 rounds. This workout is actually inspired off of clint emerson and I modified it to my own needs. I did this workout yesterday and I was completely winded.
I love this reminds me of my time in another life in the military , we had an instructor who pushed us hard, squats , mountain climbers, his favourite was Burpees, love this , thanks for the excellent instruction , he told us it’s useless to go to the gym if you can’t lift your body, push-ups pull-ups, I mean others are would beg to differ 🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁
My Dad served 20 years in the world's finest USMC. My great grandfather served in ww2. My nephew just finished his T.O.D. have a nirve trying to join the Airforce currently.. My pops was a dtill sgy that made it to Gst. McLean out here.
I'm gonna start doing this circuit, it seems fun! I'm a heavier guy (290lbs). I've worked out consistently for 8 years and I've done it all... Your philosophy is pretty close to mine lately. I've weightlifted a lot over the years, hasn't done much for me outside of building muscle and making me... HEAVIER. I tell people all the time "I need to focus on my cardio health", "I need to focus on ROM". Running/calisthenics/HIIT does that. Also, I'm prior military, and I'm interested in pursuing law enforcement (just started the hiring process for the Border Patrol and a local agency.) Guess what? Their physical fitness requirements say NOTHING about weightlifting. The government LOVES their calisthenics haha. It's all push-ups, sit-ups, and running. So I've had to change my mentality all over again from a weightlifting mentality to a bodyweight mentality. And MY GOD are you right when it comes to your bodyweight humbling you during HIIT workouts... I needed this video, man. Thank you.
Great video! One thing though, the gym is a great place for people who might be overweight or out of shape and want to change that. The machines can help with form where calisthenics can result in a greater likelihood of developing bad habits. It’s also beneficial to talk with a trainer or DPT before doing anything.
I’m going to use this start prepping for my CPAT. I know the fire program uses a completely different set of skills and exercises but I need to build myself up. Yes I do have a long while before I begin the program, which is a year from now. But I think this is a good start.
I like the video a lot. I like the training. I'm an amateur MMA fighter and I'll do anything even if I'm not. That good at it. I have at least tried to do something even if I'm not good at it. I'd like to list try it. I'm an x click the westler. My mindset is go forward, go go. Restaurants have a different mindset. We're hard workers and all we do is grant work. We grind. I do like this workout plan. This iscribe I'm 54 even if I can't do much of this video. Always try to do it not much easy, but at least try to go higher than that. I like to feel the burn. I like to feel good about myself. I'm only 55 like a little freaking. A fire hydrant I still like the wood of the weights and split it between calisthenics and weights. I have a uncle that was in the military here in California. Ex-marine for who he was as he got older. He was in pretty good shape.
This was great. I did this workout this morning and it was much tougher than I thought it would be. Especially since I did full burpees at the end of the circuit and I did an active rest in between sets (slow shadow boxing, marching in place, pendulum step, etc).
Man! I'm 45 y.o. and I just realize that some of the things I do to keep myself movile are HIIT. And I definitively love the idea that no gym equipment is required, mostly because I don´t have enough spare time to go.
This looks almost identical to the warm-up we'd do in my martial arts class. (Though we'd only do one or two "circuits" but we'd always do all of the core-strenghtening exercises, like flutter kicks, bycicle and tuck and twist). It really did help with overall fitness even then. We'd also do a lot of anaerobic training especially for sparring since it consisted mostly of short bursts of agressive movement. And it also did wonders. I was never "fit" by any meassure, but whenever I stepped into the ring, I could really dish it out. And again, I was just an average slightly overweight guy. And some of my classmates that were in better physical shape or trained even harder did end up winning world championships.
Only do this stuff if you cannot get to a gym. Strength training should be your priority.

I have started rucking again and adding this to my workout. thank you again.
I have diabetic neuropathy in my feet. It really sucks to do any of this stuff because I can’t feel my toes anymore. I never realized how much I depended on them for balance. But I realize that I have to keep blood flowing through them and keep my weight in check. I will try the modified versions of this routine now. Thanks for sharing that. I would have skipped this if I didn’t see the modified version. I’m 63 as well and was a Marine for 20 years. I really miss running! I ran all my life and really enjoyed doing it. Now even walking is tough at times. Like they, enjoy your youth and keep moving. You’ll miss it when it’s gone!😊
How did you get type 2 diabetes?
"I never realized how much I depended on them (feet) for balance."
REALLY??
I just beat diabetes took 2 years I lost 100 lbs. Lifting way too much weight and had sex. Hernia. Just had surgery last summer. Boo
I am a skinny but not fit enough. I am building up some muscle but it takes some work at 63.
Better late than never
You can do it.
Just did this workout. 3 rounds. It's tougher than it looks. But it's now in my weekly routine.
HELLYEAH BROTHER!!! Good stuff right here. 🤘🍻
🍻😎
Been using a workout app and this seems to be even better. Thabks bro.
I love the unreal tournament tat and background music - hell yeah.
Great workout and advice.
I have been into strength training most of my life. For a soldier, extreme strength isn't really the goal, but you do need a good base level of strength.
I think you don't need a gym membership, although that wouldn't hurt.
A home gym with a couple of heavy adjustable dumbbells (at least up to 40kg a piece would be great), a couple of gymnastic rings and or pull up bar, maybe an incline bench, but that's not necessary. Make sure the pullup bar is very sturdy. Also get a few elastic bands for face pulls etc.
Jump rope is also awesome. Great conditioning for your feet, great for hiking, great for everything.
Some additional stuff you can make yourself:
- a sled out of an old car tire. Put an eye bolt through the side with a piece of wood on the back, a washer and a nut. Use some strap or sling or cheap TRX like stuff.
- a climbing rope is great. You can also use it to pull the sled in for a great back exercise. Don't leave it hanging in the rain, it will rot. Make sure you don't fall down.
- a sandbag. Start light. Use an old kit bag / sailors bag. Put wood pellets or gravel into it. Zip tie it shut. Don't use sand, that makes a mess. Wood pellets and gravel also give it more bulk for a lower weight. That's a good thing.
- wrist wroller, thick towel pull ups and rice bucket for grip training.
- a hat and a weight plate for neck training. Don't neglect your neck.
With the dumbbells and gymnastic rings you can do presses, rows, inverted rows, side bends, Bulgarian Split Squats, step ups, lunges, weighted jumps, single leg deadlifts, all sorts of isolation exercises, all sorts of special ring work.
With the bands face pulls, triceps pushdowns and many other things.
Pushups are great too, dios are awesome but you meed somewhere to do them. Tip: any corner on any sturdy handrailing will work pretty well.
Not even touching on the exercises you can do with the other equipment.
Strength training doesn't need to be expensive or take up much space. Pick a few exercises, pick a sensible routine, try to use double progression with the dumbells.
With my back and hips, I can't do any of this high impact stuff anymore. These days it's a 7 to 10 mile brisk walk in the mornings, and before dinner it's 1x100 pushups/30 sec rest/1x100 suspension strap rows/30 sec rest/1x100 sumo squats. Then I'm in the recliner the rest of the night.
I coach high school wrestling and youth boxing, I'm definitely going to use this with my kids.
Outstanding video brother! I’m 68 and I have ran 2-4 miles since I was 21. I like including the full body weight into the run time. I’ve never served but I’ve rode bulls and saddle broncos and qualified for the karate olympics (got eliminated) but still practice. I incorporated stretching before and after any workout. Thanks for additional layers to my workouts. However I don’t know where you are but any asphalt or concrete in SE Texas is 140 degrees so I’ll have to adjust where l lay or touch it. Thanks
The burpees are the most intense. I am doing my best to work on them. It’s sometimes hard to jump up after the push up at a consistent pace 😂
In the USN back in the late 80's, i was in boot camp. I had joined the Navy at 3-5% body fat able to run 5 miles at the drop of a hat, and bicycle 100 miles in roughly 4.5 hours. The bootcamp was a step down with regard to physical fitness. The only time I got a good workout was when i got in trouble.... for not properly making my bunk before doing an extracurricular activity option one morning. The company commanders sent me to what was known as "IT". Intensive Training..... and FINALLY i got a good workout! And although it involved a lot of what they thought was intimidation, it was essentially THIS workout. I craved it. Needed it.
When I got back to the barracks, i went directly to them and asked them (can't believe i had the nerve to do it, really, but it felt necessary....) if i could do that EVERY morning. :| The reaction involved a lot of screaming and threats about how it was supposed to be a G******ed PUNISHMENT!!! But this is well worth the time. Do it. Make the time. Probably ought to verify your ability to do it with the doc if you're really big....
I love this story
This guy is FOS.
Staining 22.5 mph over 4.5 hours without a draft is professional cyclist level fitness never mind the bike and gear that you did not have.
And 3-5% is total bullshit. Professional body builders on the stage in competition do not get to 3% bodyfat.
So, either this guy is a flat out liar or he has a delusional view of his younger self.
Either way dude, what you "used to do" is irrelevant. What can you do now? That is what matters...
This was the realest workout routine I have seen in a long time. Definitely adding this to my routine. Thanks!
Thanks brother, will try it out for 90 days. It similar the army workout we use to have.
Like the content! Love the UNREAL TOURNAMENT 2000 music in the background!
Great video I’m going to try this. I travel a lot for work so I appreciate this is something I can do on the road
THANK YOU SIR.. I WAS LOOKING FOR THIS. PREPARING TO ENTER THE MILITARY.
Not smoking nor drinking also help.
Do it while smoking 💪
Drinking has to be the most detrimental thing to my health I’ve ever continued doing. I lost like 40lb so fast when I quit drinking lol.
Do it while smoking and drinking, be a man

Much respect for your attitude and skill Randall, from time to tine i meet other bushcrafters and preppers out there in the woods, and physical preparedness is one thing alot of outdoor community doesnt take seriously enough, you have folks out here who cant see their dong over their belly when they wee wee, talking about preparing for SHTF, having a strong physique goes very far outdoors, it helps to create a cushion when you lay on hard ground, helps you carry all the weight easier, be able to evade any danger or kick butt if you have too. And most importantly, it gets everybody pregnant 😂👌
God bless.
🍻😎
Get some! A lot of people I know are all hitting on this recently. Been implementing things like this myself. Hazing my nasty body!!!!
Thank you for this! I work on the road so a gym membership and traveling with workout equipment/gear isn't always a option. This is perfect!
Dig deep is the message.
What Beautiful State is this? Going to add this to my routine, might modify and add pull ups and dips.
Great video, I do something like that but with different exercises. 👍🇺🇸
Love the content already, and I'd love to see more in the vein of combat fitness. PT in the army i did everything I was told to do day by day but never really learned how to "work out".
Notes :
•Run a 1 mile at a pace that will let you run it the whole distance
• Squat Jumps , jump as high as you can while trying to land softly on your feet.
• V ups , pretty much situps but lift your legs too
• Mountain climbers , best to count every 2 steps as one.
• bicycles , swing your core and make bicycle leg movements in the air
▪︎ push ups , put your hands directly under your shoulders and bend to 45°
▪︎ end with a jog
You’re in great shape! Thanks for sharing your training with us!😊
So glad I found this video. Thank you for the guidance. I’ve been feeling lost with my current workout plan
Love it and the backup exercises - going to steal this for conditioning week routine for my middle school lax team
Been doing this kind of routine during the start of my track and field years starting in 2011 ended 2013. Did body weight workouts before hitting the gym for the first time. Started the gym at 2016 did it for one year. I stick to body workout ever since I was a teenager. Fit and strong 14 years counting!
I do this routine only on weekends. emom workout consisting of...
minute 1) 10 push ups, 10 squats, 5 pulling/back exercise
minute 2) shadow boxing/punching bags
minute 3) passive/active rests
doing this routine for about 15 minutes or 5 rounds (weekdays) - 45 minutes or 15 rounds (on weekends). For badass people do 60 minutes or 30 rounds - 75 minutes or 45 rounds. This workout is actually inspired off of clint emerson and I modified it to my own needs.
I did this workout yesterday and I was completely winded.
C&C red alert vibes with that background music and a training gi.
thanks. my god these workout do work they had me on the floor im so out of shape have mercy thank you so much
Good video. I should take note of some of your low intense and add those to mine.
This is awesome, thanks for sharing
I love this reminds me of my time in another life in the military , we had an instructor who pushed us hard, squats , mountain climbers, his favourite was Burpees, love this , thanks for the excellent instruction , he told us it’s useless to go to the gym if you can’t lift your body, push-ups pull-ups, I mean others are would beg to differ 🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁
Going to start this tonight! Thanks, man!
Those workouts improve your vo2 max and help you in the gym since you have enough air to do heavy compound movements
My Dad served 20 years in the world's finest USMC. My great grandfather served in ww2. My nephew just finished his T.O.D. have a nirve trying to join the Airforce currently.. My pops was a dtill sgy that made it to Gst. McLean out here.
Excellent training! I will combine it with my karate training. A BIG thank you!
No nonsense advice. Thanks, Man. You have a new subscriber!
I'm gonna start doing this circuit, it seems fun! I'm a heavier guy (290lbs). I've worked out consistently for 8 years and I've done it all... Your philosophy is pretty close to mine lately. I've weightlifted a lot over the years, hasn't done much for me outside of building muscle and making me... HEAVIER. I tell people all the time "I need to focus on my cardio health", "I need to focus on ROM". Running/calisthenics/HIIT does that. Also, I'm prior military, and I'm interested in pursuing law enforcement (just started the hiring process for the Border Patrol and a local agency.) Guess what? Their physical fitness requirements say NOTHING about weightlifting. The government LOVES their calisthenics haha. It's all push-ups, sit-ups, and running. So I've had to change my mentality all over again from a weightlifting mentality to a bodyweight mentality. And MY GOD are you right when it comes to your bodyweight humbling you during HIIT workouts... I needed this video, man. Thank you.
Awesome, thanks for sharing 🙏
Well, stay healthy for all of us & Safety First! Peace across the Globe ✌😉
This will help. I've tried to keep fit since I did my last PCS...out of the Army lol. Thanks❤
Damn, I'm a 3rd years of military and never know this, it's actually inspiring of this.
Great video! One thing though, the gym is a great place for people who might be overweight or out of shape and want to change that. The machines can help with form where calisthenics can result in a greater likelihood of developing bad habits. It’s also beneficial to talk with a trainer or DPT before doing anything.
It’s a good measuring tool to gauge whether or not you’re in shape.
I’m going to use this start prepping for my CPAT. I know the fire program uses a completely different set of skills and exercises but I need to build myself up. Yes I do have a long while before I begin the program, which is a year from now. But I think this is a good start.
I like the video a lot. I like the training. I'm an amateur MMA fighter and I'll do anything even if I'm not. That good at it. I have at least tried to do something even if I'm not good at it. I'd like to list try it. I'm an x click the westler. My mindset is go forward, go go. Restaurants have a different mindset. We're hard workers and all we do is grant work. We grind. I do like this workout plan. This iscribe I'm 54 even if I can't do much of this video. Always try to do it not much easy, but at least try to go higher than that. I like to feel the burn. I like to feel good about myself. I'm only 55 like a little freaking. A fire hydrant I still like the wood of the weights and split it between calisthenics and weights.
I have a uncle that was in the military here in California. Ex-marine for who he was as he got older. He was in pretty good shape.
Brilliant, straight to the point no bs, thanks man 💪😎👊
Thanks!
🍻
This was great. I did this workout this morning and it was much tougher than I thought it would be. Especially since I did full burpees at the end of the circuit and I did an active rest in between sets (slow shadow boxing, marching in place, pendulum step, etc).
Right on the asphalt, no mat, that's great!
Love this content! Carry on sir!!!
💪🏻😎
Reload on flat range is different. Reloading in different positions the coupler may be faster.
Siiiiick! Thanks bro!
Man! I'm 45 y.o. and I just realize that some of the things I do to keep myself movile are HIIT. And I definitively love the idea that no gym equipment is required, mostly because I don´t have enough spare time to go.
Awesome!!! Just what I’m looking for
My brother great work
Good stuff brother!!
Hey Grunt, Thank you!
Just did 40 burpees last night at park for workout
Thanks !! Great content
Thank you! This is awesome
This looks almost identical to the warm-up we'd do in my martial arts class. (Though we'd only do one or two "circuits" but we'd always do all of the core-strenghtening exercises, like flutter kicks, bycicle and tuck and twist). It really did help with overall fitness even then. We'd also do a lot of anaerobic training especially for sparring since it consisted mostly of short bursts of agressive movement. And it also did wonders. I was never "fit" by any meassure, but whenever I stepped into the ring, I could really dish it out. And again, I was just an average slightly overweight guy. And some of my classmates that were in better physical shape or trained even harder did end up winning world championships.
This is my warm up
Dang. I’ve got some work to do just to achieve the warmup stage 😂
Wrestling coach filled a ruck with painted stones and hiked up the hill side half mile several times to make giant C for town name. That was brutal.
Great instructional. I'll modify my routine accordingly. Thanks
Get down! Shut up!
