Just kind of curious how many of you guys actually did bar-work before finding out about the Bar-Barians. Be truthful!

for a month or 2.. i combined a bit.. did some pushups at home.. and pullups at the gym cuz i dont have a bar at home, but otherwise mostly free weights.. now im only on calisthenics tho..
all that remains is to find the perfect park outside.. which is hard here in slovenia lol. and waiting for a pullup bar to arrive at home lol.

lol i pretty much did nothing but play videos games its hard to start of nothing

Yeah, I personally find video games a nice way to relax or rest from working out all day. Sometimes I'll even work out while I play games, like if I die in a shooter game I'll do x amount of push ups, or dips or something.

Sounds like a good idea but I wanna quit games for good

My bio is long, I started going gym about last year summer and my friend told me about bartendaz (but i clicked on bandana red when he was working out in his solo days, then i watched bartendaz after) around the same time (july/august). Soon after, I started to hit the park but I went to the gym more. When september came and school began I unintentionally stopped fitness altogether.

I got back on fitness on the 16th of january to be exact but gym-wise because I remember planning everything and taking notes. During this time I was nearly at rock bottom with the measly figure of 3 max pullups (which I dont think were all the way down) next to my name. Damn, I was so ashamed. Thats when I started watching the bartendaz again and thats when I started to hit the park again. I was still on gym more though, I would say 75% gym and 25% park from january-april. I remember the sweet month of april, when I was chasing that muscle up and the same month when I converted to strictly calisthenics.

Back in the day I was really into pumping iron. About 15 yrs. ago I was 95kg. Now I'm 77kg. At that time I was pretty muscular and did only bodybuilding type workouts.

From as far back as I can remember I did pull-ups, chin-ups, push-ups and dips, so I had a pretty good base before I started getting seriously into bar-only type workouts. I could always bang out 15-20 pull-ups.

Saw a Zef vid about a year ago - the rest is history!

I started off barr work when i was a kid,, but then started and stopped working out. Then went gymming for a little bit but didnt like it, and then got inspired by marcus bondi vids on youtube to start barring up.

before starting strictly calisthenics a few years ago I used to do do others sports like track n' field and basketball so I had included a little bar workout to increase my upper body muscles, afterwards I had to stop because of school which took me too much time but I needed to relieve my feelings and I found that the best way to do that was guess what!..I started doing bodyweight exercises at home since they didn't take me a lot of time , I did pull ups on my balcony and things like that till 1 day I saw some videos of the calisthenics kingz harlem seals and bar barians and I got hooked on working out, then I put a bar at home and the rest is deducted....
