For Those Who Doubt That Women Can Do Bodyweight Workouts….

Posted in Full Body on the November 2, 2009

With the many cultures of fitness that are prominent today, sometimes here at Street Workout we have to remember to take it back to the essence of what Street Workout originally meant. This ideal of a full body workout without the need of a gym that can be done anywhere at any time is our goal we try to extend to the world. With that being said, sometimes this message fails to reach a specific population of our audience. Women! They tend to believe that this workout philosophy doesn’t work for the female anatomy. Of course that is completely wrong, but another incorrect believe is that the workouts are too hard for them to do. This too is amiss. Not only can women do bodyweight workouts, but this video is the perfect example of a woman that takes our doctrine and runs with it. She does some exercises that to me some time to work up to, so watch and learn ladies. You to can benefit from bodyweight exercises just like men. Enjoy the video y’all. P.S. The main Street Workout website is slill down due to my computer issues, so please be patient and understanding in my troubles. Thanks.

How To Rip Your Chest To Shreds At Home

Posted in Chest Workouts on the October 24, 2009

One of the most fundamental parts of the male workout is the pushup. The pushup is probably the most widely performed exercise done worldwide, but this leave many thinking there has to be more exercises to take ones chest to the next level. This video is a perfect example of the many exercises that can be done without the use of a gym or a ton of weights. Personal trainer to the stars, Jeff Cavaliere, does an inspiring chest routine that will define, and more importantly build the entire chest, from top to bottom. I have personally added a few of these exercises to my routine, my favorite being the standing one arm cable chest flies. Overall, this video will help you get ideas on new techniques and angles in which you can attack that chest and get the results that many have been seeking and haven’t yet accomplished. Enjoy the video and learn something new!

More Parkour For My Acrobatic Fans

Posted in Full Body on the September 21, 2009

I got so much positive feedback from the Street Workout main page for the previous Parkour video, I thought it smart to post up another. The most visually stunning thing about Parkour is that these gentlemen do such incredible things in their own space. The feat that’s accomplished is one of mastery of each individuals balance and movements. These small motions combined to form not only a new sport but a culture that has become a world wide phenomenon. This video features a team out of Mexico, which only further my point of international appeal. This video also captures the sheer love for the sport the gentlemen have that are amazing onlookers attempting to casually pass, but are immediately stuck by the free show being offered.

Crazy Jump 100% Or Just Crazy?

Posted in Full Body, Core Training on the September 3, 2009

I have a strict Street Workout rule, and that is that I don’t post the same videos here on the blog as I do at the main Street Workout site. However, today is an exception to the rule. This video warranted posting in both places, and you will soon see why. As you all know, I love Parkour. I love it because I find it amazingly primal yet so sophisticated at the same time. It’s like watching an urban rap version of the ballet. I haven’t posted a Parkour video here for a while because I hadn’t seen anything new. That is until now. THis has to be one of the best Parkour video I’ve ever seen. I rank this up there with the heroics of a David Bell. It’s always a delight to see people approach something common from an uncommon standpoint and make it all their own. That is what this band of young men accomplished in this video. With no further ado, here is Crazy Jump 100%, and you will understand why they call themselves this.

Muscle Up Tutorial From Korea?

Posted in Full Body, Core Training on the August 25, 2009

Of the thousands to possibly millions of Korean exports we get here in the U.S., I would have never guessed a muscle up video to be one of the most useful of these items to us here at Street Workout. The muscle up has been a long standing exercise that believe it or not, not many can do. How many times have you been to the gym and seen someone doing them? Not often if not ever. This is why I think this video completely warrants it’s posting today. Along with it coming from one of the most unexpected places, also makes this film post worthy. This gentleman documents his instructions from the practice phase all the way until the performance stage. He shows different angles, the motions and grips involved and even exercises to make you perform this feat better and more competent. Check out the video and go to your local park and practice. Once this is mastered, you will be the center of attention doing your local outdoor work routine.
