Thugs Need Hugs and 6 Pack Abs?

Well, according to this video the answer is yes. These guys are part of the Ruff Ryder’s Workout Crew and specialize in what they call the Thug Workout. It’s a bunch of bodyweight exercises done in local parks by self proclaimed thugs. Although the language can get rough in these videos, these guys have some sound ideals when it come to free hand exercises. Except for a lack of leg exercises, this would almost be considered a comprehensive collection of calisthenic exercises. If you can get beyond the rough exterior of this video, you can get some great is deas that will benefit anyone wanting to start a home fitness program.




OK, it’s obvious these guys are on gear and workout with weights in a gym. They do not represent the typical physique developed from correct bodyweight exercises.
Have you ever heard of Hershal Walker? He performs bodyweight exercises and only these and was about the same size as the bigger guy in this video. I myself am 6′4″ 225 lbs. Am I too big for just doing bodyweight exercises?
