With covid and me moving to a part of town not close to a gym, I decided to go the home gym route. Everything from SPRI for under 400 bucks. We replaced our living room TV and I moved the old one down. I mostly use the Nike training app, some stuff from the Fiton app, and looking forward to the new apple one. I was very skeptical I’d enjoy it and not miss a full gym, but I am never getting another membership. I like doing more “functional” movements and HIIT stuff than just lifting heavy at the gym. And with so many free workout apps, it’s easy to always be doing something new. If you have the room, I highly recommend this set up!

My gym consists of about the same. Bosu, Yoga ball, balance board, 2 kettlebells, jump rope, and a bicycle.

Even before I started riding the bicycle, the HIIT had my breathing on point.

Yup, road bike is (the most expensive) part of the program. But I will be fine through winter just doing HIIT stuff to keep my cardio on point.

You use any apps, or just your own program?

Pretty much my own program that I've developed. I do a bunch of functional strength stuff. I've stolen from Onnit, Dr. Reef, Venn Johns, Alvin Kamara, Larry Ogunjobi, etc;. When it came time to pick a bike, I went MTB, nice trails here by my house and road biking looks as exciting as watching paint dry. I've actually been impressed by the level of base cardio from HIIT.

Use a Fitbit Inspire to track my HR, RHR, Food, and Water. Runkeeper for my biking, and an Aria scale.

AJ got me thinking about water. He pointed out to me how my hydration was effecting my resting HR. Of course dehydration stresses the heart. The correlation that I'm kind of surprised to make was bodyfat percentage. The better I'm hydrated, the less BF I'm carrying.

Muscle memory. It's amazing how fast it all comes back once you commit to putting effort in to it.


Good morning, it's raining in Texas. Which means I'll be stuck in the house all day. Let the conversations begin!

COVID prompted me to set up a little basement gym. Couple kettle bells, jump rope, heavy bag, pull up bar, swiss ball. I still really enjoy lifting heavy but I get a damn good workout with just that shit. Plus my mtb actually makes cardio bearable
