Don't get it twisted... I love barbell movements BUT if you don't want to be tied to a gym and still want strong legs... this is how we do it :) A little too hard? Beginner Follow Along Leg Routine: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-j7EutymCM0g.html Instagram.com/thestrengthside
Strength Side a advice for you, read the new covenant. If you want to learn more about yourself. There is a man called Jesus, he claimed to be the „only truth“. And that he died for us. If you are interested in eternal live Jesus is the man who gives you these gift for free. Read the living words of Jesus it’s not comparable to Paulo Coelho or somebody else on this planet. „Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.“ John 14:6 KJV God bless you
Strength Side 😊„Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.“ Matthew 7:7-8 KJV www.bible.com. I like you man, I prayed yesterday for you, so I will tonight in Germany too. Jesus is the „ one“. „For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.“ John 3:16-21 KJV www.bible.com. God bless you
Your comments about avoiding a scarcity mindset are timely and timelessness Josh. I'm a 🇨🇦 traveling in 🇲🇽 and that generous attitude towards people opens many 💓 and doors. Thanks for your workouts
Hey, I really enjoy your content at the moment. I like how "consciously", new and creative your videos and content is in my mind. Thanks for your work brother! :) really appreciate it!
I don't know you in person, but from the content that you are introducing to us, I can tell that you are a mature person , very sophisticated and you have a conscious sense of focus. Your family members and people around you are very lucky to have a role model like you. Most importantly and the reason I appreciate your work so much is that we can learn it from you. You contribute a lot and you do it in a very practical way. You bring the examples from your life , which makes us closer to you as a teacher and as students .Thank you so much. As for the Alchemist book, it is one deep book it is a masterful work of Paulo Coelho, a deep philosophical writer, he tells a metaphorical story, actually a life transforming journey. It's a book that you have to read and read multiple times and every time you read it, you extract new conclusions about life.
Love the book talk here, man. I've been working with Mitch a little bit over the past few months and I'm learning that this style of fitness is much more than just the physical. I'm learning how they overlap to create a balanced, nutritious practice. Thanks for what you do, Josh. Much love - Will
I am really looking forward to trying this routine. There’s some exercises I’ve wanted to get better at for a long time. I loved story time at the start also 🙌🏼
You make your strength training look so easy! You have inspired me and I have been able to alter some of your exercises and I feel great. It definitely has made me and my body feel very good in a differ sort of way. I just turned 55 and I have gone back and forth in the extremes of loosing and getting stronger to the opposite. I carry extra weight and my goal now is to stay strong and flex. I choose to cycle to and from work instead of driving. 15-20min twice daily and your videos have added so much to my flex and everyday strength. I really enjoy adding what I can from your videos to my daily routine. Thanks so much!! You are truly amazing, inspiring and beautiful!! PS I am above average in the flex and I feel so good! I have been cycling for over 7 years and love it!
Hi Josh! We found your videos and have started working the exercises. We love them! We are a very young, older couple (60-ish), and very fit. Our goal in life is to help others grow spiritually healthy. We love that you recommended The Alchemist! Some of the books we recommend to our clients, and you might enjoy, to grow spiritually are as follows: "Letting Go" by Dr. David Hawkins, (also Power Vs. Force), "The Miracle of Mindfulness" by Thich Nhat Hanh, and "if The Buddha Dated" and "If The Buddha Married" both by Charlotte Kasl PhD. All these can be found on our website or Amazon. Thank you so much! Keep up the great work!
Bought a shirt the other day for the reasons you were saying. Thanks for the input to my movement training! What a twisting path bringing me to unexpected realizations... Went for the Highly Different tee, of course :)
And remember to support StrengthSide as well! I bought the Move Strong Now program for me and my GF, and its awesome. Thanks for YOUR great work, free awesome videos and help :)
Those movements/couplings were stellar. I felt so strong as I began to fatigue, I surprised myself with the mobility component but saw my edges also. I really appreciate you being raw in your experience of becoming unbound to the gym as being necessary if you are to embrace a nomad mindset\lifestyle. It was motivating for me to hear that when you did this for yourself other attachments came to light. Alchemist was a big shift for me as a young One and I have heard untethered soul too many times now not to read it. A book dear to me is the Tao of Pooh.🙏🏽
This may be my favorite YT post of yours yet, Josh, but I said the same thing to myself a few days ago. “The Alchemist” by Coelho is magical! I read it a few times years ago and its lessons have stayed with me. This year so far the book that’s inspired me the most is “Becoming Supernatural” by Dr. Joe Dispenza. I’ve read two of his other books in the last few months, too. The meditations from those books - even better for me using Dr. Joe’s guided ones - are taking my meditation practice deeper and deeper and the results in my life are accelerating in surprising ways. Still doing Phase 1 of Move Strong Now with ambitions to do leg training like this later this year.
High quality video, Josh. Lots of good info in a short period. Tip: if you don't have a shiny floor for sliding a towel on, use a piece of plastic or similar on carpet, which is the same thing just reversed.
I love these two books: „the worlds fittest book „ from Ross Edgley and „becoming supernatural“ from Dr. Joe Dispenza. Thanks for the great content, brother!
Hey Josh, I love the way you share things and how authentic you and Chrissy are 😁. You inspire me to take it easy and experiment with my mobility and strength. So crazy beautiful challenging workout. Thank you for sharing 💪👍😉
You have a very natural way to explain the exercises in your videos. I had a horrible injury 1 year go while playing football: bad landing on my left knee, which forced it to hyperextension. As a result, I overextended ACL and LCL and had cartilage damage (medial femoral condyle). Physical therapy was not enough, so I had an arthroscopy 6 months ago. ACL and LCL are now fine, but i cannot get rid of the cartilage damage pain. I wonder if an intense routine like this one will help to eliminate the pain.
I needed some of this man!! i've been out of the gym for 11 days now cause my country is locked down and legs are the muscle that I'm struggling the most to push at home... also really inspired by your intro story! cheers from Spain!
Book recommend- Talking to Strangers Malcolm Gladwell. It's revelatory in abundance. There is soooo much we assume we know but it was quite a relief to find something definitive in all our miscommunication so that we can change for the better. The coupling concept truly can be a lifesaver. My bow legs just did the knee squats (without holding the foot) and I'm quite thrilled. thankyou I don't know why I would need any other fitness vids. You, yoga, and some Michael Mosley, im set.
Hi there, new to your channel, so glad I found you! Love the books your recommending, and love the fact that you are incorporating life, spirit, and just being nice. Great job!
One of the best no equipment leg exercises is the pistol squat. It requires less ankle flexibility but benefits from great hamstring flexibility, if you can keep your free leg straight & horizontal, reach out & try to grab your toes. This counter balances you also helps keep your standing foot flat for for-aft balance. To start don't squat as deep or back into a (eg) chair. Then to make harder add weights, close one eye, or jump up to a platform. One legged squats like the pistol & shrimp are great BK they can be done anywhere and great for any athlete BK it improves your balance.
I have enjoyed you for two years....I have my own routine...which I have practice for over 35 years....yeah...lol....I'm old but still ticking....I was doing yoga and movement before you were thought of....hahaha...however....some of your moves I have placed into my routine...so...thank..you….I also like your book recommendations....I do the same...I know you are a spiritual not religious young man...and I encourage you to continue your mission and quest in helping people exercise and get healthy. Namaste!
Loved this video Josh! Thanks for sharing your favorite books. I've added a few of them to my list. THE best book I've ever read is The Power of Now. I wish everyone would read it 👊🏼
Never been a big reader...I did just not found the right books that keep me hooked but some weeks ago I have read the Alchemist in few days. A great book and had inspired me to read more. Any book recommendation is welcome :)
Awesome content .... I myself have gotten away from weights a bit and I’m trying to do more body weight stuff now that I’m getting older ...just want to feel good now and stay healthy .... thanks for the motivation and learning tips 😎
Teaching this old dog new tricks! How the hell you young guys think of these different variations of body weight movements?! I've been doing BW exercises nearly 40 years and I've never seen or thought of these movements. Congrats for teaching an older dog new tricks. PS. Don't worry, doing BW exercises you'll age easier and better imho. I'm almost 58 y.o, 5'11" 175lbs and can still do those movements (not as smoothly as you, though I'm working on it. ; ).
This video should come with Caps letter WARNING on it !! Jesus....my quads are gone !! Day 2 after this work out and I’m still having difficulties walking around the house !! Thanks buddy !! Lol
Hey Josh, As usual, thanks. You inspire me, and bring peace into my life in a time of incredible stress. Also, your workouts are challenging, and hard AF!!! 😳
Awesome video man!! Been looking for a way to work on legs at home and also improve balance so this is perfect for me. Was buzzing when you said Untethered Soul as that book was big for me. He makes it seem so simple right? Been meaning to read The Alchemist so will get on that. Thanks for all the great content brother!
thank you so much! I am looking for good lower body exercises for my husband. One thing in particular i am wondering about is protecting the knees. would you recommend just generally being mindful of your joints and not overdoing it, or are there more specific tips you have as it relates to protecting the knees? could you speak to that? i love your workouts and how you respect and nourish your male body.
Hey Josh. Thank you for all your videos! I loved "O Alquimista" as well. Some of the books I can recommend: "The Pearl" by John Steinbeck, "The Two Towers" by J. R. R. Tolkien and "Dracula" by Bram Stoker. Great stories, which are always welcome :)
Thanks for the tips! My book rec is nerdy but hey, I think it's probably the best book ever. "The Brothers Karamazov" by Dostoevsky. I think it's good if you're stuck in life, and need your perspective widened and beautified.
I really love this channel. The education, the energy, it's what I need while I work on my mental. Mind and body, you know, getting healthier. These movements are challenging but I have the patience to master them. I want to take this journey from the beginning though. So, where would you say I begin in this channel, on this journey? Also, The Alchemist is a fantastic read!
Hey Josh thanks a ton for these videos. I wanted to start training and learning more about my body without really focusing on gains as I just wanted to be healthy and make sure that my body can be put through any endurance. I had started with some calisthenics and these routines really help. Keep up the excellent video's. I'm definitely a fan of your work
I just wrote a book called "The Fear of Love and Corona. 17,840 Miles during Covid, Lockdown to Election." Id love to send you a copy. Thank you for All of the Wisdom!!
Josh, how have you been able to get your ankles to be more mobile? Just consistent mobility work? Foam rolling? Heavy squatting? Thanks so much! As always, love the channel!
I Loved it 😀. Thanks. I resonate with you completely. I did Cossack Squats while you were talking at the end and they felt great 😀. Life is RAD. Energy, our bodies, nature, the sun in perfect alignment with this planet to grow food optimal to our bodies! 💥❤️ We are amazing beings. I really like your approach with coaching as well as movement. I feel it's spot on 👊.
Hello, I'm a new subscriber, also digital nomad and love for health, wealth, happiness and consciousness research! Love your videos, specially handy now for stay at home situations, thanks! If you loved "The Untethered Soul" I'm sure you are going to be blown away by Micheal Singer's second book, "The Surrender Experiment", this is honestly at this time in my journey one of the top five book I ever read, and I read quite a bit ; ) Another great series of books on consciousness I love a lot is David Hawkins', starting with "Power VS Force" and definitely "Transcending the Levels of Consciousness" Hugs and may all your dreams come true!
Hey man, I've seeing your videos for a week now, and i'm wondering if have you ever made an '1 hour full body routine, something that we could do every other day ('jumping' days, I mean). Because, despite doing exercises at home for two years now, I can't make them everyday in order to follow othe activities of my routine. Thank you, and congratulations for your work! So far I've enjoyed every video.
