Today my coworker, Dave came over to my house after school and did a backyard workout. There was absolutely no planned workout beforehand. I led him to the backyard and he picked out various logs, stones, buckets, poles, sand jugs, and kegs to play with. Dave picked up various articles of weight and began lifting, curling, pressing and carrying. I offered a little help every once in a while, just little tidbits here and there about how to balance it, how to hold it, or where to latch and roll it. It was really gratifying to see someone who is into all around fitness, become motivated, focused and inspired to use your creation. Over the past 4 years I have pieced together quite a collection of free or cheap gear. I have maybe spent $75 dollars total. Today Dave used maybe 20% of the backyard gym. 2 hours later, (which went really fast) we finished with the 18 ft. Caper. I believe he will be back for more.
