Ghetto fitness

Good videos of people in the hood exercising with what they've got. Now we know why people in prison are ripped. Interesting videos, and these guys are in better shape than 95% of people!

I can see tons of limits in this, but huge, huge props for working with what they have and getting innovative with what exercises are available. That's what you call resiliance and tenacity.
 
No squats? DLs? Fill the trashcan and do overhead squats maybe?
 
Yea there genetics play a huge role in their fitness levels. However those pull ups and then holding at the top and doing outward push up type thing was INSANE.
 
"Get that money, get that money!"

For your average person trying to sculpt a lean body and staying in shape, you just need push-ups, pull-ups, and running. That's why I like these videos. It would be a good video to show to beginners who think the latest thing from GNC will help them get ripped. For the next couple weeks, I'm going to make the bulk of my workouts what these guys do, just to try it out to help myself get back in the groove of working out.

If you're trying to bodybuild and have certain bodyparts stand out, then there may be some limitations to this.
 
Not to sound racist but their physical shape is largely due to their genetics, not the fact that they are 'exceeding the other boys who have access to a gym.'

For the average non-gentically gifted individual, this kind of progress will plateau very fast and won't really produce any special effects.
 
"Dont try this at home, this'll dislocate all yo s!!ht"

LOL, i love that line...
 
"Do dips in the playground where theres piss and crack" -140 productions
There's never been piss or crack in my playground, yet we use to do these types of w/o when i was a teenager, not knowing what we were doing totally. But pushup challenges, pullup challenges, dips..all that is what we used to do. This is def not a new concept.
 
I stumbled across this a while back on one of those strung-out on youtube nights. At least it was funny though.

The soundtrack is actually pretty good, but I can't quit laughing everytime I listen to them talk.
 
yeah they need to do their 'ghetto fitness' while slingin' crack and doing other illegal activities....


.....cuz earning an honest living is just wayyyyy too f.ucking hard to do. lol.

yeah, there are absolutely no stereotypes embodied in any of those videos.

I could never figure out what a "get-busy nigga" was that they kept referring too in the 2nd vid.

oh well....self-fulfilling.
 
Yeah, all these guys do is do pushups, pullsups, and dips all over the US.

It's nothing too special.


Notice how there is no leg work at all.

lol, leg work is taken care of via running from police and their baby's mamas because they've never paid child support to the 13 different women they've impregnated. <end rant>
 
I'd rather do pullups and dips on a ****in jungle gym all day then to work a nautilis machine at the gym. That's about the only stuff they do in prison too.

Plus most of those guys physiques say it all
 
don't you dare forget about that "get busy nigga" area of the chest excercises.

other than that, I think you hit that nail right on the head.

Get that Money!
 
This may come as a shock, but there are African-American members at AM. Maybe perpetuating racial stereotypes isn't exactly.....tasteful?

I agree, tasteful is the best choice in words imo. I'd be a hypocrite to bring morals into it, but social tact is a virtue everyone should try for.

Check this guy out, an aspiring acrobat for sure.

Wonder how he's progressed in the 2 years since the video?

I don't think any of the guys were trying to come off as racist...at least I would hope not. to be honest, I kno these wo work and r not easy but on another note-there r no real gangsters staring on a utube wo video. I would bet most of them never seen a prison, much less been in one. real gangsters move in silence, not on utube...
