      Anyone have any creative ways they are training at home now that so many gyms are closed? Tips and tricks? I've seen so many youtube videos of various bodybuilders coming up with creative ways to train.

      One thing I've noticed is all the weights being sold out everywhere. At least in my neck of the woods. However, you can find chains. I went to a few hardware type stores in the area and bought different size chains to use in place of weights for certain exercises. That and various bands. John Meadows has a couple good videos on youtube with some band workouts for all of us who can't get to the gym and weren't able to acquire enough weights at home.

      Yeah, just about everyone on YouTube is into these "Prison Workouts" now. Calisthenics is getting pretty popular on the outside.
      Leaders did what others weren't willing to do, now they enjoy the things that others do not.

      I pulled out my hex dumbbells and 53lb kettle bell. Started remembering my hiit workouts I used to do. Also there is plenty of stuff on YouTube. Plus I have my old P90x videos...maybe I’ll get those out too. They’re not half bad. I remember getting a good workout from them as well

      I've been getting more and more creative with exercises and workouts using minimal equipment. I was actually able to acquire a few extra pieces for the garage. So far, I've been able to maintain pretty well, so can't complain.

      It's funny, I've been checking online in my area for people selling gym equipment since everything is all sold out everywhere. It's like everyone who had two rusty ass dumbells in their garage for the past 10 years pulled them out and listed them online for $300 lol. People are ridiculous.

      So far, I haven't been able to do anything fancy. Focusing on the 3 core lifts. Bench, squat and deadlift. Albeit, I don't have enough weight to go heavy on anything. I created a makeshift bench for bench presses. I have another cheap makeshift rack I can get under for squats and all I need for deadlifts is just my bar and some plates. Throw in some curls, skull crushers, laterals, barbell rows and I can maintain pretty well. High reps since I don't have very much weight.

      I've actually taken this time to work on my flexibility a bit too. It's something I've been neglecting and I could really tell.

      U can annihilate yourself with nothing but a doorway pullup bar, some pushup handles and a couple of medium pound dumbells
