I sold my other equipment and just have a pull up station now. I use it for different pull up variations (wide grip, chin up, etc), dips, and knee/leg raises.<p>Aside from that, I do some stretching, climb the stairs in my apartment for cardio/legs (30 floors), do a few pushups, bodyweight squats, etc.
I have an exercise bike to which I added a tablet (an old bookshelf plank I had lying around) on which I can put my laptop. It’s pretty hard to type but it’s perfect for conf calls and a bit of light document reading. I have <i>a lot</i> more conf calls since we went into lockdown so I can manage at least 30 minutes of biking every day while sitting in meetings. I have never gotten so much exercise so regularly!<p>I also do HIIT (high-intensity interval trainings), which is basically series of body weight exercises (burpee, squat, sit-up, etc.). Doesn’t require anything except some room and a video or training guide to follow.
Double kettle bell complex: cleans, military press, front-squats.<p>A free standing pull up bar. Randomly do 2-3 pull ups through out the day.<p>Pushups.<p>kettle bell swings.<p>Loaded carries through the house. Waiter walks, farmers carry, racked carry.<p>No long cardio specific training, but the heart gets worked.
My partner and I had been working with a personal trainer up until the lockdown hit and had sold most of our exercise equipment before we moved to London, so without the gym we were a bit stuck. Thankfully we did have a rowing machine and some dumbbells so have been using those with an app called FitBod. You enter the equipment you have and it builds a workout based on that. It also has body weight exercises too. Once we’re out of lockdown I suspect we’ll skip the personal trainer and keep using FitBod, just at the gym instead.
I use two 15 pound dumbbells and perform a full body workout with them, using exercises I learned a while back. You'll be surprised how far you can go with just a pair of dumbbells and good lifting form.
My wife and I decided we did not want to pay for Crossfit and the math worked out that if we built a home gym, we’d eventually be saving. Olympic bars and weights, two racks, pull up station, kettlebells and dumbbells, assault bike, rower, treadmill, ghd, wallballs...<p>We do a mix of an app called StreetParking, some Instagram workouts, and some stuff we just make up. StreetParking is nice because it has daily workouts all the way from body weight to oly and power programs.
I have been going back to doing bodyweight workouts. Did them during last winter/spring and jumped to powerlifting in the summer. I am following this[0] routine and have been doing it three times a week plus some running or biking from time to time<p>[0]: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7J3RaEYTPvM" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7J3RaEYTPvM</a>
We have recently built <a href="https://www.co-train.space/" rel="nofollow">https://www.co-train.space/</a> to let people exercise online with Youtube video. See discussion here: <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22890595" rel="nofollow">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22890595</a>
I have an indoor bike. It's pretty awesome. I hurt my foot about 1.5 years ago, and combined with way too much work, I stopped doing sports.<p>Luckily, I got back in the game roughly at start of Dec. Now, I do 4 times/week, 40 minutes pretty high intensity. At the end of the workout, my bpm is between 185-192.
Almost bought a Concept2 rowing machine on the day UK lockdown started, decided not to, now there is no stock left in country and no possibility of getting one until at least June. Really regret it.<p>If anyone has ideas how I can beg, borrow or buy one I'd love to know!
In India, we have this app called cure.fit[1] which now conducts live CrossFit classes for anyone to attend from home. This is just body weight movements and no equipment.<p>[1] - <a href="https://www.cure.fit/live" rel="nofollow">https://www.cure.fit/live</a>
Six days in a row I do 100 diamond pushups, 100 shoulder pushups, 100 squats, and 100 leg raises. I rest one day a week. I started at 10 reps and each week and worked to 100. It’s easy, and requires no equipment. Bike rides for cardio.
I live by a trail and run 5-8 miles whenever the weather is nice.<p>But inside my home... I have a pull up bar in a doorframe, a bench with some dumbbells, and an ab wheel.<p>I basically stick to the same routine I was doing at the gym, with the exception of more running.
