Btw, my bent-arm handstand is a bit of struggle at 00:16 eh? I need to work on that move again so it's not so sloppy :)

This was really good . I have most of these and with the knowledge you just gave me get the ones I don’t have . You just earned a subscriber .
Johnny Sins really does it all huh? 😂😂

Great suggestions! I also recommend a yoga mat, if you're living in a space with hardwood/laminate - makes ground work a lot more enjoyable and less of a pain in the back! Another suggestion are push-up bars. Find sturdy ones with a comfortable grip that allow you to extend your reps for more of a stretch in the pecs.
Thanks so much for all these links!
This is a ton of help..
great vids man
thnx
Loving your channel content thank you.
I made the decision 4 months ago my life needed to change. I started keto (dirty keto) and to my astonishment I’m now nearly 4 stone weight lost. I’m in the lower 14 stone range now and looking to start conditioning my body and have been going through your beginner vids 👍.
One of my problems is my lower 2 discs in my spine are deteriorating so I’ve got to be careful but that isn’t going to stop me. I’ve already started DDP yoga (bed to chair workouts currently in week 3) to start getting my body used to moving more. On my list to work towards purchasing is the duonamic eleviia so I can start doing some hangs and beginners stuff and some dip bars. I’ve been looking at the style you recommended and I’ve got them on my list. I’m also next year going to look towards getting an outdoor galvanised pull up station or the pull up mate 2 but they’re along way off yet depending on my progress. I’ve already got some resistance bands so maybe adding some assistance bands to the list along the way.
Thanks for your content it helps a lot 👍
Thanks for the tips!
One more subscriber here. Just started to watch your videos. First person to actually explain how to reach advance level by learning basics.
I like that ultimate body press dip station because it folds up flat. I'm an OTR truck driver and this is an absolute game changer. This is my favorite channel by far. Thanks Ryan!!
Ou! Thanks for the video. You inspired me to get in calisthenics with your other videos. I'm going to get a pull up bar, gymnastics rings, ab roller and resistance bands. The dip I can try with the gymnastic rings so I wouldnt need more equipment such as the dip station. I don't have a big home. Again thanks for the video!
Thanks a lot for all the really useful stuff. And the way you pass it on . Greece loves you 👍👍
Another great video and I just started watching. This is going to be a good year.
Again - excellent video and advice. I just need to get going now that I found your videos
just found this channel! Hope your still making videos, I'm just starting calisthenics to help with my martial arts training.
Thank you for this informative video!
The video I suggested! Thank you!
Awesome video, now i know what to get to workout at home with. Thank you
really awesome. I have almost same equipment as I started to move to body weight training. Thanks for video.
thanks for the info you have made it easy to understand and made me want to workout again.
This answer my questions from your last video. Will pick up a couple of items with you links. 🤙👍
I didn't buy most of these, but that was because I didn't see this video or know of the channel at the time. I started buying home gym equipment in Jan, for the winter months when I didn't have time or the desire to go out again in the freezing cold. I did buy variations, a dip station etc. and free weights and I have found them more challenging than using machines at the gym, for all the obvious reasons. Love the channel and the advice. No one needs a gym now, or ever, imo.
Great video man. Out of all the youtubers doing this I find you the most chill to listen. Keep it up!
Daz thank you :)
Great thanks for advice
Thanks it was helpful
Love your videos
I am relatively new to your channel and I have to say the work you do is amazing. Thanks for all the great videos you post. You deserve far more subscribers, it is only a matter of time before your popularity increases.
Abdihakim Ahmed Thanks man :) Comments like this one are what keep me going
Thanks for that video. Actually, yours is one of the best calisthenics channels on YT (and there are countless).
vj999999 Thanks! That's a high compliment. Much appreciated :)
vj999999 I second that! Your videos are very well made, to the point and not dragged out. Explanations are clear and your delivery is easy going. Thanks for your dedication to helping us all out.
Many thanks as always 😷🤙🙏
Thank you soo much for making this video! I was actually wondering about what equipment you use regularly and would recommend just a few days ago. This video is timely. Love your vids. Thanks again. Subbed for life.
Heather Curtis Wow! Talk about good timing. And thanks for the sub. I'm glad you found my channel :)
Thank you for such great content!
Reli Arras thanks! I'm glad you like it :)
Just got a set of rings and in my opinion, they are the best bang for you buck piece of equipment you can get. You can do all the basics on them (pull ups, dips, push ups, rows) and they are also useful for a lot of other things. I even hang some resistance bands from them and they are great for tricep pushdowns.
where do you hang them
You look like Jonny sins
But you are good thank for tips
Both give different kinds of “tips” 🤔
@@earlj.d.6285 yes, the midday fitness and midnight fitness
@@ridoajialamsyah9371 haha
Ok we get it
Very useful.
Thanks.
I realize this video has been around a long time but it’s new to me. BOSU, BOSU, more BOSU! I use it upside down for a bit of a challenge but the key IMO is using only one leg. Great for stabilizer muscles and balance while doing squats, kicks, lunges, really any exercises.
Minus the gym: best logo I’ve ever seen 👍
Thanks for your video post. Done watching💞
Thank you.
Thanks Johnny
The ultimate body press is the best dip station by far 👍🏻 so easy to store and excellent quality
Have a pull up bar that’s drilled into the wall. Now I’m looking to expand my equipment like dip bars and gymnastic rings.
The bosu ball is good for beginners that aren’t ready for the stability challenge of the rings it’s a happy medium if you flip it upside down. You could also add it with the rings for pushups feet on the bosu and hands on the rings
i like "assistance" bands for resistance workouts much more, way more versatile and i never liked the handles
Same.. I've made real progress traininh this way plus all my weight lifting niggles and injuries are now no existent
Tbh, both have their advantages and disadvantages. You can stack all the resistance bands together to the same handles.
yeah i'd have to agree, but I'm not sure theirs any correct name because more often hear them referred to as resistance bands so i think what you call them has more to do with what exercise your doing at the time
Dude you gotta finish moving into your home! Also, fantastic video!
Thank you
I use my bosu ball for improving my balance. I'll stand on it with one leg and stick my other leg up and out in different directions.
Couldn't help but notice the Porcupine Tree album in the background. Good taste. ;)
Thank you Minus, your videos inspired me to start doing exercises and adopt a vegetarian lifestyle I’m still trying but please keep posting videos about it, greetings from Costa Rica
Alexis David Villegas Torres Awesome! Thanks for letting me know my videos are inspiring and helpful to you. Comments like this keep me going 💪😊
Awsome stuff - what about the bands you use on the rings indoors, do you have the name of that provider- great tuition 👍
You are way more into it than me. I’m a bigger guy...about 210-220 at any given time. Shade under 6 ft tall. I stick to the basics. pushups, sometimes with push-up bars, chin-ups on the Iron Gym, high rep bw squats. Switch out pushups for dips and chins for bw rows for variety. Squats are a staple. Do use “the wheel” on occasion.
Bosu ball is so underrated for a full body workout, if I want a quick 15 minute full body workout the bosu ball is my go to, you can get apps filled with exercises to get familiar with the different exercises, I just follow the app on a timer while it flips through the exercises
Squats and push up with upper extremities on the Bosu? Great video
Appreciate it
thanks
Thanks
My apartment is starting to look the same way 😁
subscribed!
Nice equipment. You didn't mention any Indian Club or kettle Bells. After watching this video you make me wanna invest more equipment for sure. I bought a few things from Origin USA. They have some nice leather Burden Kettle bell and nice well built Indian Clubs. Peace and love and the community here...
Try doing some single leg deadlifts using like a 22kg kettlebell on the bosu, flat side up! ...or a parter toss each standing on the bosu and toss a med ball or slam ball between each of you! .. Also missed a few good ones...like the jumprope, powerblocks, and an adjustable step up bench!
The yoga ball really changes the game for pushups 😜we can do ten with our feet on one and hands on another 😝 still trying to get the handstand on it but it's very very difficult and kinda dangerous
Hey i would love to see a full exercise video in action.
hey im broke AF but your video convinced me to buy a gymnastic ring
I'm curious bout the work out you do with the assistance band. Recently on my ig feed, so many ad on another loop band that can be used on lower body workout. What do you think about them?
Gymnastics rings are the absolute best bang for the buck
Hi Ryan, thanks for your video, I'm agree with you but rings can do the most. Rings substitute dip stations, ball, ab wheel. I'm looking forward to another video...
Juraj TOMKA yes, I totally agree. Rings are so versatile. And you can get creative with them and do all sorts of exercises. Maybe I should make a video about that 🤔
Yeah, rings conquer all!🤙
Unfortunately, everything you’ve recommended are not available. Guessing the pandemic is to blame. Nice videos and I’m trying to equipment to get started on.
Just get a weight vest, Gymnastic Rings, Dip station and Push up bars. Is all you need.
amazon is fucking ass
Excelente! what brand of resistance bands do you recommend?
I know I am late to the party - just found the channel. You said you don't recommend the bosu ball, but I would like to make a recommendation for it. They are great for stability, specifically squats if you flip it over and stand on the flat side. It was a recommended exercise by a physical therapist when I had severe knee pain (won't bore people with the details). The balancing adds a nice challenge to body weight squats as well, teaching even pressure between each leg as well as heel to toe.
Love the videos! Keep up the good work and great content!
Darin Overturf thanks for the insight into the BOSU benefits. I admit, I haven't given it the time or attention it deserves. It sounds pretty handy, though, so I'll have to start using it more 👍
Stability balls are good for gaining back flexibility by doing back stretches
Great videos! I had to subscribe. What I really would like to know, where to find a complete workout plan like you are doing with your equipment including tubes? Reps, sets and all? Any recommendation? Thanks!
Zsolt Fazekas I design my own routines so I'm not aware of an existing program with the same info, but I'm working on a video course that I'll be releasing in early 2020. Stay tuned!
Nice video. I recommend to buy some dip belt and weights. If someone workout only at home this is great solution to make pull ups and dips harder. Greetings from Poland :)
b_arni thanks for the advice. I do use a backpack and put weight in it for building strength on the basics, but the dip belt is a great idea :)
ah this is frustrating - I could have sworn it was this video where I read someone ask for your views on things like the 'Push Up Elite' tools.. the grips that you spin as you do the push ups, and your reply. I was thinking of buying some and have spent 30 minutes or more searching for your reply!
Would you be able to do an inverted hang with that dip bar? I’m afraid it won’t be stable if done.
it's a bit weird, minus gym, but you actually have a dedicated room and lots of equipment. so this is actually a gym. anyway, thanks for your content and sharing!
Stability ball can double as a computer chair!
I don't sit at the computer as much and that counts as exercise!!
A door jamb is the vertical section of a door frame, which acts as a support for the remainder of the frame, as well as the door itself. Each frame has two jambs. The hinge jamb is the side where the hinges are installed, and the strike jamb is the side where the locking mechanism latches into the strike. The jambs are also used to mount the frame to the surrounding wall. The horizontal member that connects the two jambs is called the head.

Plz make a tutorial on the planche lean and how to progress it. Plx
Lifted Safe01 thanks for the idea :) Added to the list.
How do you feel about a power tower as an all rounder piece of equipment for calisthenics?
Hi, what color of resistance bands do you most reccomend? Purple and black ? Thankyou for the feedback!
Those assistance bands are definitely resistance bands you can use them to train with. Just look up James grage on UA-cam he does everything with them.
great video, thanks; don't you also use a weight vest?
Stolidus yes, but I bought the vest right after making this video. Before then I was using a backpack and adding weight to it.
How come you have so few subscribers? An excellent channel!
Егор Овчаренко Thank you! I was stuck at
@@MinusTheGym one thing i noticed is that at least some of your videos don't have that screen at the end (10-20 seconds) where you can subscribe to the channel that other channels seem to have. Might be a good idea to include it.
anyone recommend a good dip station available in the UK?
Do you have any plans/nutrition tips to burn that lower stomach fat? I am exactly the same build as you (albeit 6'2, so appear slimmer) , 9% Body Fat and literally all that remains and I want to burn is lower stomach fat, it drives me mad. Maybe I should go back to Intermittent Fasting... Thank you for videos, they are always great help!
Hey! Could we see an ab wheel progression video? I can roll out slowly but retracting is still beyond my capabilities... Cheers!
How about now?
In order to have a functional home gym (due to small space), do you recommend purchasing the rings plus the dip station or do you believe the rings would be enough? I'm asking you that because a lot of exercises that can be done in the dip station also can be done with rings, although I understand rings are more challenging. Thanks for great the video!
Great question. I wanna know the same thing, waiting for the answer
Hello, very nice videos, I've learned a lot from you.
But there still so many routines out there, I don't know what to start with. What's your opinion on THENX?
adymishu thanks! I agree there are a lot of programs to choose from. I haven't used THENX before so can't comment on it, but I did use Barstarzz BTX and made a review video about it, in case it helps. Also, my video titled "Beginner Calisthenics Workout At Home (Full Routine)" has been used successfully by many, including myself, so check that out if you haven't yet.
@@MinusTheGym Thank you for the quick reply. I'll watch your video and then check the Barstarzz BTX.
Have a nice day and keep up the good work :)
I need to convince my husband to build a pull-up bar and some parallels in the yard get me out if the basement lol
So, no weight vest? Would you recommend one?
love the circuit but why no dips?
I feel if you have rings you don’t need a dip station or pull-up bar but they would still be useful
I noticed you had some straps attached to the gymnastic rings when you did Australian pullups. What are they called and where do I get some?
Two Point Four Kids the straps and buckles come included with the rings. At least they are with the pair I got: amzn.to/2Bi69RO The straps are perfect to wrap around a sturdy pull-up bar to suspend the rings. I've also heard of people hanging them from an i-beam with a couple heavy bag hangers and carabiners.
Can you use rings with dip bars? Or is it not safety?
They're 12 inches long, they're really big and I like that...
Sorry bro, just had too.. Brilliant video and will be taking on board a lot of your advice! Thankyou!
pgrothschild 😂 I didn't even catch that during editing
Idk I just like your voice
I'll just use the chair and a paralletes for dips.
Hi Ryan, I have been shopping around for a dip station to use specifically for bodyweight rows and to begin learning the front lever using your tips from the video on 3 skills all beginners should learn. I was wondering what your opinion is on the style of dip station you use versus the style that appears to be two very tall parallettes? Lebert is probably the most advertised brand of that style.
Shay Daylami I actually really like the "two very tall parallettes" version of dip bars. I'm contemplating getting the Frank Medrano signature Lebert Equalizers (amzn.to/2EiMPFO). You can do additional exercises on them, like straight bar dips. The reason why I have and recommend the Ultimate Body Press is because it's easily collapsible. Being able to hide it easily was a huge factor for me in my old house. Now I have the space, though.
Buy yourself some gymnastics rings instead.
@@timshel011 Rings are definitely on my list but I needed a free-standing option in my current apartment. I'm super pleased with the lebert knockoffs I got
Do you have any thoughts on using gloves to help with grip and prevent callouses and pain?
Tom C yes, I personally recommend gloves, specifically for those who’ll be spending an hour or more a day on bars at a calisthenics park. It might not be the same if you’re just using home equipment because that will often have foam grips, but when I was going “all in” on outdoor equipment I had horrible calluses and they’d often tear and create painful wounds. Wearing a nice pair of workout gloves with the finger tips open was perfect for me to get around that.
Is his pull up bar not screw in the wall? I’m too scared to attach anything to mine and s.o. Doesn’t want holes in the wall.
You can do pretty much anything with rings and a tree
How stable are those dip bars?
