Hood Workout

Burpies and UFC

LeGo — Sat, 05 Jul 2008 16:06:54 +0000

First off, I call them burpees. But we can do burpies in from this video. This is the basic burpee that can be done in the hall of a house. After that he does what he is calling the UFC. Bascially it looks like a dumbell lawnmower pull into a shoulder press (one arm at a time). I might have to try that out and see if I can integrate that into my dumbell workouts. Like it has been said before, you can do these workouts in your kitchen or in the hall. You just gots to do them.

Prison Workout

I have no idea where this dude trained. But from the amount of diamond pushups he does in a row, it appears to be classic prison training. Then to top it off the blows out 10 handstand pushups. The diamond pushups are not rushed and to me appear to have good form. This is definitely a fitness goal to have. This is a great motivational video.

Backyard Hood Workout

This video shows how things can be done without the gym. It starts out with a boxing workout, with a bag and restraints. It then goes into a pushup and medicine ball set. This is a workout that involves the family, father and son. Fitness can be achieved from the gym or the crib. The point is, you don’t have any excuses…

Bartendaz on Sub0. This is one of the best workout videos, period. The double pullups, the handstand pushups, the one arm pullups and everything in between. This takes hood and prison workouts to the extreme next level. There is not much else to say about this. The video speaks for itself. Get some.

Hood Workout?

So I search the web for good motivational workouts that can be done in the hood and while you are reading this right now, no matter where you are. I ran across this video on a google search for “hood workout videos” and was disappointed. I figure I would share and ask, wtf is it doing ranking number one on search? I gots to step my internet seo marketing youtube video game up. I will replace this soon, so bare with me will I call this “hood workout” out. If you actually watch this video drop and give me 25 pushups…

link to video… tell me how a video that has 200 views ranks number one in google for a term. I am going to have to squeeze out some burpees for defeat.

Sandbag Workouts

Sandbags can provide an amazing workout. This video features a kid getting in shape for Rugby by gaining strength and getting fit. He is using the sand bag in the video to do so. He also mentions he tightens up the diet. You can start the video around 3 minutes. If there is anyone out there that doesn’t think this will get you in shape, let me know. This is cheaper than a gym membership and can be done anywhere, if you don’t have a building, look for gym stairs…

CALISTHENICS KINGZ

These dudes put together a decent playground workout. Some of the highlights are on the dip and pullup bars. The manup pullups are an amazing workout. The handstand pushups on the dip bars are sick. This video is mostly advanced but shows form and definitely gives crazy motivation. And like I generally say, you can do this anywhere, no gym needed. The body can do amazing things you just have to push it in that direction.

On a personal note. I weighed in below 250 today for the first time in a long time. I am going to try to keep the momentum going down. I have a nightly weight I like to see and a morning weight. If I don’t like what I am looking like in the morning or evening I will adjust based on those. Many people advise against this because of a balance in your body and they say that you should only weigh once a week or with inches. I use my method because they work for me. I get instant feedback and can set daily goals… Once I get where I want to be I can change to the weekly thing.

3Run Tricking and flipping

LeGo — Wed, 18 Jun 2008 01:43:17 +0000

This is a video that provides mad motivation for getting in shape and staying in shape. These tricks take mad skill and physique. The video also features tracks from Dj Shadow and Gang Starr so how can you go wrong.

You also get the backflips off the wall, front wall flips, a few tricks on the bars, street parkour and just all around crazy moves.
