So, when am I supposed to need more?
Because from the looks of it, I LITERALLY don't need anything else.
It seems you can really solve ISTness with very little, huh.
To think I almost fell for the "your home gym needs a thousand of equipment like a commercial gym" meme.
The minimalism redpill is truly powerful and eye opening.

Mogged
not picture: big ass rack taking half the room
fpwp as usual
Why do you want a rack? The thread says minimalism.
You only need 50 square feet of clear space for a power rack including room to move the bar around
>50 square feet
tree
>rack taking half the room
get out of cities, they're degenerate hell holes filled with weaklings
>hell holes filled with weaklings
So I can mog everyone there?
You literally don't need a rack. You can do floor presses and zerchers you pussy.
I just go outside and hang my rings from a tree branch.
it works, but claiming that minimalism is better from a maximalist perspective is moronic coping
>it may be better for you at this moment in time due to multiple factors
this is reasonable
>it's better to go play monke in a tree and only do calisthenics, than it is to have the option to lift with barbells, dumbbells and calisthenic bars
this is moronation
/thread
why do you sound angry
>"Hahahaha guys I don't have a lot but I'm totally fine vs those other fat cats hahah!!"
>minimalism
just fast and get lean bro
Nothing required besides water and some salt.
When you are leaner you are automatically better at calisthenics.
Don't forget to lift rocks or wood outside.
it's free.
If all you want to do is look good and be stronger and in better shape than average people you don't need anything else. Personally I want to become the biggest strongest freak I can so that necessitates more, but 90% of fit should just do what you are doing.
Post Body OP
Enlightened post.
Nice combo and tbh its enough to train everything.
I prefer a chin/dip tower instead of rings but that's just me. I have a 24kg comp KB in which I use for swings, presses and rows.
You again? Stop it with your BS. You post this every single fricking day, yes calisthenics works we get it. Frick off to reddit already
roidtrannies boiling
Pretty much every guy I see using kettlebells is on TRT (and wears gloves). You should unironically consider rope.
Literally everyone using kettlebells is natty and keyed
Post body you ugly piece of fat shit I bet you don't even lift
funny how kettlememe shills never post body
Hey everyone, this is a good place for minimalist references when it comes to fitness:
https://rosstraining.com/blog/
Frick off, I'm not reading your shitty blog. Buy an ad, you gay.
What do you hang the rings on?
>do squat variations until my legs are about to give up
training legs to failure wont make your legs grow buddy, you need weight
Are you trying to convince yourself with this poorgay/effortlet cope? Why do you keep posting this thread?
post body w/ timestamp
>grow nice upper body
Post physique.
>grow nice lower body
Post physique.
>body is now greatly conditioned
Post physique.
I have no doubt that compound movements are great for physique but you're only posting an image of kettlebells and gymnast rings.
To further encourage you (via mogging me) I will post my (admittedly noob/fat) physique.
Please respond OP I wanna see how far you got.
you can look jacked in 90 days if you eat at a slight deficit and do lots of weight training
Yeah I know, idc, I am telling OP to post physique.
I wonder why only on IST people take pics at face value and don't request timestamps, filename alone tells me that's most likely not you.
Is my physique even worthy of taking a timestamp?
I have the original PXL (google pixel image) file if you want.
>Is my physique even worthy of taking a timestamp?
To kettlewimps it is kek
>kettlewimps
I don't know who that is.
I'm a newbie and I only started lurking this board recently.
The only identifiable people I know on here are the CBT tripgays and the egirl spammer schizos.
>is my physique even worthy of taking a timestamp?
no, my point is that just by looking at image size and filename you can tell if it's an actual picture or just some random image anon found on the interwebz but 99% of fit is completely oblivious to that. Most gays here probably never even run reverse image search before mindlessly replying to bait posts.
>probably never even run reverse image search
If you run a reverse image search you will find that pic in a single cbt thread a few days ago (from me).
I did the random number filename thing because I saw it being used everywhere on this site.
Fresh off the boat, from reddit, kid?
>from reddit
No I mostly lurk pol and biz, I don't use reddit beyond finding builds in RPG games.
You're not White and you never will be which makes you below me.
post body
>You're not White
I am European (non Turkish or Med btw).
My immediate assumption is that you are a COPING Turk.
If you don't have blond, straight hair, blue eyes, squared jaw and chin structure, attached ear lobes, and are at least 180 cm. You are not White.
>blond but not enough sun exposure for it to show
>curly hair
>eyes are blue but greyish
>fat face even at 15% bf
>detached
>179cm
I'm 96% white and 4% israeli btw
Bro your body looks AI generated lmfao
>all this seething itt
based op already making the roidtrannies and powerlards come out of the woodwork
not everyone wants to be a twink
not everyone wants to be a powerfat either
Another kettlebell thread where none of the alleged kettlebellchads post body. Hmmmmmm....
Sounds based to me, Anon.
Please post routine, would like to try it myself.
i have a 24 and a 28kg, and thinking of getting a 2nd 24kg kettlebell. i also have rings for my pullup/dip station. kettlebells keep working out fun and enjoyable.
also, you can get an amazing workout within 20-30 minutes doing complexes. definitely work my forearms quite a bit more than a barbell imo.
consider adding resistance bands too. cheap, light, easy to store, but can add a lot of value. i attach them to my kettlebell to do weighted dips/pull ups.
>kettlebells keep working out fun and enjoyable
That's why I like them. I would probably not work out if I had to go to the gym because of some stupid mental gymnastics my brain does sometimes. This way I can just go home from work, change clothes and start working out immediately, no reason no to.
Nice physique I'd say.
id add ab wheel as well
what was your routine though bru
Is my friend receding?
buy dumbbells instead of kettlebells. you will quickly find that you need to progress to weighted calisthenics and it's easier with dumbbells or dumbbell plates. also for lateral raises and ohp.
You're promoting dumbbells over kettlebell for... lateral raises? This is what commercial gyms do to your brain.
NTA, what's the difference?
kettlebells does literally everything dumbbells does, but with better technique and grip development involved
plus a ton of mobility movements you cannot properly reproduce with dumbbells due to different weight distribution
you are so conditioned by mainstream db goyslop that you completely closed your mind to everything outside your bubble, even though you never tried them
>be op
>look dyel in a shirt because scared of squats
>get pushed around by a fat frick boomer who wrestled in high school
So this... Is the power of calisthenics...
>be you
>50lbs overweight to squat bigger number
>gassed after 20 seconds of exertion
>inserts nonsequitur
you will never post body I
Because it gets boring doing the same handful of exercises for years
The rings are good but kettlebells are just a scam.
>no no they're good
No they're not, they're marked up dumbbells you don't progress with. You're a skinnyfat boomer just like everyone uses these. Holding a sandbag zercher style and doing cossack squats would probably build more lower body muscle than the best kettlebell swinger ever and it costs almost nothing.
Post body but yeah, theoretically that's correct.
lmao kettlebell squat
i can do 20 reps of 100kg split squat
so you're just doing cardio op?
>i can do 20 reps of 100kg split squat
damn you must be an absolute unit
lose weight fatty lardass
squat stand and barbell are also very minimal
These bad boys can go up to 90lbs (Mine do) and will see you getting gains for years to come. The square shape can take some getting used to, made my dumbbell pullovers awkward but I got it down now.
cringe
tip toe squats and split squats are all you need for legs
pics or frick off
But it is boring.
Isn't a pair of 24s too light
What do you think of a pair of 32s instead
Been doing pull ups and dips, how am I looking so far bros?
Why don't you do pull ups, push ups and sprints if you're such a minimalist you consoomer larper
It's just preference dude. Who cares.
looks like powerfats sure cares, look how half the replies are lardasses seething because people are getting gains without buying an entire gym
ok, how progressively overload on rings and 25kg kettles?
>ib4 harder variations/more reps
by that logic bodyweight is infinitely better than kettles and rings, so if you really want to adhere to it, start doing only bodyweight
op juts made big claims and people are shitting on him for it
Which rings do you think I should buy OP? They seem very cost effective.
>option 1
>boring torture that takes you hours to complete for mid results
>option 2
>fun and exciting, actual lifting is brief and exhilarating also you can pick lifts you like and it gives you faster results
only edge in minimalism is you dont need money, thats it
going to the gym has gotten so incredibly boring after 15 years or so. kettlebell is actually something new to improve on, and you can get a great workout in 30m instead of squatting 5 reps and resting for 5 minutes. you should try it sometime. big barbell wants you to think every other possible tool is useless.
>15 years
damn thats crazy
>try barbell
I did, I have this old ass soviet ball and I did not like doing the routines at all. I used them when I didnt go to the gym to keep in shape and maintain any gains I had left
>barbell
kettlebell
what routines did you do?
This guy exclusively works out with kb's with push ups and pull ups here and there.
Also, Karelin did kettlebell work. kettlebell is great for longevity (less likely to suffer injury as a result of strength training) and overall physical fitness. barbell is for strength purists, while kettlebell training accomplishes both HIIT and strength, providing a good balance.
Been thinking about getting rings but I don't know where to hang them, any tips?
