Tried one or two of these out and damn they are tough. Give me squats and deadlifts any day . But seriously I'm going to incorporate as many of these as I can into my training, if anyone is interested take a look.

The clapping handstand pushup looks crazy!!, These exercises are not for the faint hearted :eek:

Beastskills is an awesome site, there's some seriously tough stuff on there (e.g. Front lever, clapping handstand pushups, etc.) though there's some easily achievable stuff too.

I started off with the muscle up, L-sit and handstand. Those three are pretty achievable and are a nice way of mixing up your training. They're great gas too, anyone who's fallen out of handstand will back me up on that!

Might give some of them a try, at home in a locked room so nobody see's me make a tit of myself:) but practice will make perfect i suppose, even if it involvs alot of nasty carpet burn:mad:

I just got his book. The naked warrior. Some interesting ideas in there. I've been working out for years and I feel like an absolute beginner doing these exercises.

The handstand is a good one to work on at home, all you need is a wall! I'm working on HSPUs at the minute, doing negatives everyday, hopefully I'll get one soon!

Tlev, I wouldn't worry about feeling like a beginner, they're completely different exercises. It's freaky how much harder they are than their barbell equivalents.

Ah no its cool. Its a challenge.
