I wish I could erase that word from modern slang we might as say yeah this dude is a straight rapist or use the word paedophile for slang like this guy is straight child molester he probably rapes at least 10 kids a day how cool are we. Fucking the youth of America need to find other ppl to look up to I was obviously be sarcastic about the rapist and paedophile shit but it's like why make some thing horrible cool

I'd recommend you stick to basic curls even with resistance bands and rotate your hands outwards so that your thumbs are horizontal at the top of the movement, that will hit the whole bicep, as for triceps a winning combo is dips, close grip push ups and overhead extensions

I particularly like the pictures and names of the exercises organized by muscle groups on the front of the kzitem.infoUgkxKJHyBZ9I1py9vVi-XLpEBg0y-qmdhn3q . Considering the number of exercises it has a relatively small footprint. I needed a machine that was not too tall because I only have 79" headroom in my cabin and this was just over 78". It is easy to use, seems to be well made, and I am pleased with my purchase. I am doing upper body muscles on Monday and Thursday. Lower body exercises are being done on Tuesday and Friday. Not using it on Wednesday, Saturday, and Sunday. I am a reasonably fit 66 year old man and this is a great workout.

just get normal adjustable dumbbells and various weights, it's much cheaper. E.g. two dumbbells with up to 55 pounds cost only $30 on ebay and you can buy additional weights to make them heavier. Weights cost about $1 per pound. Buying used dumbbells/weights is way cheaper and sometimes you get it even for free.

@Khroniclas
5 жыл бұрын
@@MeepMeep88 He explained that? Or do you mean HOW they build it to be better? PS: the problem with powerblocks elsewhere is that they cost hundreds while having a smaller range of weight. Like seriously.. the Athlean-Blox go from 5 to 95 pounds (roughly 2 to 42 kilograms) for about 800 usd (I guess that would be roughly 500-600 euros) including the stand. Looking at a large variety of powerblocks here... Roughly 2 pounds to 24 pound (about 1kg to 12kg) for 200+ euros (300+usd) without a stand. 47kg to 57kg (roughly 104 to 124 pounds) for about 589 euros (presumably 800-900 usd) no stand included. Etc etc etc. Powerblocks here are a bloody scam. You can buy packages of dumbells that take plates here for about 30 euros (45~ usd) which would give you: 2 dumbell bars. 4 thingies to keep the plates in place. A shit tonne of weighted plates allowing you to use anything from 4 pounds to 15 pounds per dumbell. So to get the same range of weight as that low weight powerblock I just mentioned, but with weight plated dumbells instead. You have to throw around only 60 euros (90 usd) It takes equal to barely more room as a powerblock, it has a larger range if weights, it is waaaaaayyyyy cheaper. So yeah.. powerblocks here are a scam, if only the Athlean-Blox would be available here. (Would be a lot costlier than for American people with taxes and shipping and all, but it would still be far superior than the rip offs we have here.) :*(

@@Khroniclas Well I don't know what he says in the video since I usually press the left/right arrow key which skips forward/back 5 seconds. If he mentioned anything between that 5 seconds, I'm at a lost lol And true, adjustable plate dumbbells are the best adjustable dumbbells for the price. I live in the same state powerblocks are made so they're cheaper than your price but still doesn't beat plate adjustable dumbbells. But in a way you're also paying for the versatility and quickness. If we race and change the weight from 50lb to 90lb, powerblocks wins (only takes like 3 seconds to change) where as your 4 collars you have to take off (longer if you have the spinning ones) if you use just the clips then you have that added sense of paranoia that those single clips are suppose to hold 40lb on each side lol. Then you have to think about how you lay them down on your knees. Try to balance 60-80lb dumbbells on your thighs to get ready to do shoulder/incline presses. Your bar will be jabbing you in the leg while powerblocks have a flat head and it's easier to balance. Not to say it's impossible to do plated dumbbells, just harder. But yea, I think the main selling point is the "easy to switch weights" system and "Save you a bunch of room". In the end, a full set of dumbbells is better than both of our dumbbells lol (powerblocks and plated dumbbells).

One cheap DIY peace of equipment I like is a small, strongly made backpack, which I can put sand bags into. I choose sand bags because they don't move around much and if perchance they do and end up hitting me somewhere, the impact is much, much less likely to cause injury than a steel weight would. I can add up to about 60 pounds of sand to the pack I use. Make sure the straps are very comfortable as even 30 pounds of weight can really cut into your shoulders. You can add difficulty to pushups, pullups, deep knee bends, toe presses, etc.

Alternative for the dumbbells: I have a pair of dumbbells that work just like a barbell; a 5 pound bar with collars on each end, to which you can put standard plates. It was like $40 for the kit, which had enough 10, 5, and 2.5 pound plates to do anything between 5 and 40 pounds. They'd probably be impractical with 45s on both sides, and possibly even 25s, but you could probably get everything up to 65 pounds with just 10 pound plates.

I partly agree, yes, get a pullup bar and bench but replace the dumbbells he's trying to sell and get a squat rack with safety bars and an olympic barbell with a few weights then add weights when you can afford it. Got all my stuff from eBay/Shpock/Gumtree (UK).

I'm still working out with the same Sears Ted Williams barbell with vinyl plates I bought around '64. Plus some nice metal York 25 lb. plates I got a couple of years later. Weights last forever. Over 50 years and they still work great! Of course I've got some other stuff now too. A bunch of fixed weight dumbbells ( I can still press a pair of 75's overhead for reps), dipping bars, lots of bars for chinning and pull-ups around the house and out in the backyard, and a new favorite these last few years, a Gerard Trap Bar. Guys should check used sporting goods stores to get dumbbells etc. at half price. I got my pair of 100's for $50 each. Excited to hear about the AthleanX power block! Might be the next thing I get!

This company, Powerblocks, is awesome. With the older sets of powerblocks, people think they stick but most of the time the metal pins were just upside down. That’s why perhaps they upgraded the pins as the early years developed with bright orange markers on the top of their new Pro pins. These are great dumbbells. I recommend them to everyone, and my extended family has in total 8 sets of these in various models as they developed over the years. The athleanBlox are sweet and the value is amazing!

I started recently with a battle rope and 8 kg kettlebell. The rope is a 1.5 inch diameter and 40 feet long. I picked it up for $50 on ebay. If anyone is interested I can post the link. The bell is from kettlebells USA. I wanted something cheaper than dragon door but still high quality. The bell was a little under $50. After less than a week I am already seeing some results. I am stronger and I am getting some definition in my biceps. At some point I plan on making a TRX clone so I can do pullups and other bodyweight exercises. Here is the exercises I have in mind. Battle rope, kettlebell deadlifts, KB squats, and KB swings, pull ups, dips, and riding my bicycle. That should get me a pretty good total body workout. I may also add a jump rope at some point.

Cheap 1" threaded dumbbell handles, barbells and plates can be found on craigslist all the time. Get a few hundred pounds of those plates to start with, that will fit both dumbbell and barbell, and add in lightweight independent squat stands, bench, and pullup bar. The total will probably be $400-450

Suspension training can work the entire body. A 75kg person supports 45kg in the push-up position. You effectively have a 100lb dumbbell to press, curl, row, extend, etc. a length of 40mm rope would make an excellent substitute for the TRX, you can superset and change the resistance without adjusting anything, plus it works the forearms better. You can even add sandbags for more stress.

Buy four pulleys, a few metres of steel cables, carabineers and make an improvised crossover "machine" for variety. But all you really need is an adjustable bench, a power rack, an Olympic bar, a pair of adjustable dumbbells, and plates.

in my opinion, if your budget is really low and you're just starting out, try to use bags filled with whatever you want, it's pretty much the same thing as a kettlebell, it's infinitly adjustable and it costs almost nothing

A much better idea and a fraction of the cost is to go to some place like Newyorkbarbell and get a pair of adjustable dumbbells with spinner collars. They have 1" bars that range in length from 14"-24" that will hold between 6-20 10lbs plates.

If you could only get one thing, get rings. They allow you to do pretty much every calisthenics and suspension training exercise there is at home for cheap (the price is at 15-20 €). Of course, it is going to be harder at first, but that's because it trains you stabilizer muscles. In terms of dumbbells, here in Germany ones that are like barbells (they have two short bars on which you can put all sorts of weights) are common, but I haven't seen them in the US that much. They might be cheaper than the fancy easy-to-adjust ones (but they can't be adjusted as quickly) and you can expand later on and have weights from different brands etc and if they (and you) are strong enough and have the right diameter, you might be able to use barbell plates.

I agree in everything except the dumbbell: less weight may be more functional than go heavy and may be the point is that I can add some Isometric tension during the work out with them. A pair of 25 pound could be enough if you fire the muscles doing other exercises. For instance the push ups will work out biceps and you are already lifting your weight. But good, the push up bar is essential ( I will add an assisting band too for the open push ups). I will consider also an inflatable ball for abs

Great information!!! And with everyone selling their used equipment, I was able to collect a variety of quality, used hex DB's over several months. I recently sold them as a complete set (5-60 lbs) and purchased a "nice" set of DB's, 5-40 Lbs., with money to spare. Recently added a set of 50's to my home gym. (I know they don't perform any different, but an upgrade is an upgrade!) I've got a pretty nice, complete home gym, with very little money invested; relatively speaking, and it actually serves as motivation to working out. The amount of quality, used weight equipment online these days is staggering!!

You can usually find gym equipment on Craigslist for super cheap. A lot of people just want stuff gone and out of their garage. I've seen some really great deals, particularly from rich people in the suburbs.
