I train wherever I am. Some weeks that is a dumbbell, a kettlebell and a jump rope on a hotel room floor before a 7am appointment. Some weeks it is the full setup in my garage - rower, ski erg, bike, runner. And the best weeks it is CrossFit with my ...
This is the half of my training that travels, or near enough. One pair adjusts across the whole range and converts to a barbell, so a spare bedroom or a corner of the garage covers the days I'm not on the ergs. Cheap, and it does not care that it's c...
Adjustable Dumbbell Set (converts to barbell and kettlebells)
The one that hurts. Air resistance scales with how hard you're willing to work, so it is impossible to coast and impossible to outgrow. Ten minutes on this is a worse experience than an hour of most things, which is exactly why it's in the garage. Be...
Rogue Echo Bike V3.0
Seventy-eight dollars for a t-shirt is absurd until you own one for three years. I sell apparel, so I'll tell you what you're actually paying for: it's seamless, so there's no shoulder seam to chafe under a strap, and the fabric doesn't hold smell th...
lululemon Metal Vent Tech Short-Sleeve Shirt
Flat, wide, stable heel - which is the whole point, and the reason running shoes are wrong for lifting. A squishy running sole under a loaded bar is like standing on a mattress. These are for the garage days when I'm actually moving weight. If you on...
Nike Metcon 9 Training Shoe
The one machine I'd keep if I had to sell everything else. Nothing else works that much of you at once, the damper is not resistance no matter what anyone tells you, and the PM5 means the number you pulled today is comparable to the number you pulled...
Concept2 RowErg (PM5)
Same flywheel and same monitor as the rower, on a bike. Air resistance means it scales to whatever you have left in the tank instead of you picking a level and lying to yourself. This is the one I use on days my legs are cooked from a show floor and ...
Concept2 BikeErg (PM5)
The one nobody buys and everybody should. It hammers lats, triceps and everything down the back of you, and it does it standing up with no load on your knees or your low back - which matters when you have spent nine hours on concrete. It also takes u...
Concept2 SkiErg (PM5)
No motor, no cord, no top speed - it moves as fast as you can make it move, and it stops when you stop. Curved deck puts you on the front of your foot, which fixes a heel strike faster than anybody telling you to fix it. Half the price of the other s...
