Fun fact: This is a high-quality remake of my VERY FIRST YouTube video on this channel!
Many of you already know this information, but I wanted an easy, thorough video that people could link their friends when talking about our fitness philosophy. I wanted this to be a good place for them to start!
Hope you're all well!

bottom line up-front: I've been watching your videos for a couple years now, and your videos never cease to amaze me. You probably don't need anyone telling you this, but I just felt the need to: you are an amazing human being, you do great things, and I absolutely wish you all the best!
In 2011, I joined the United States Air Force. When I left basic training, I weighed 189lbs (85.7 kilos) at a height of 6ft. I'm sure a decent percentage of that weight was bodyfat, but I was only ever interested in passing my fitness assessments and looking okay in uniform. Over my 6 year career, my weight would fluctuate, finally ending at 213lbs (96.6 kilos) when I left the Air Force in 2017. When I left, I stopped exercising completely. My diet also included a LOT more sugar than it probably should have. Now here I am, 6 years later, and my weight as of this morning was 290lbs (131.5 kilos). Something needs to change, and moreover it needs to be a permanent change (you know… other than death. It doesn't get much more permanent than that, but I suppose I kind of want to… you know, "live". :D).
Over the last month or so, I've been debating about how my workout routine should be. I bought some base bars for dips and (eventually) seated pullups when (or if) I ever get to it. I bought some protein powder, started taking probiotics, and have sworn off sugar, at least for the time being. I can't just go back to my calisthenic workout routine in the Air Force as it's WAY too difficult for who I am right now, so I figure I have to work my way back to it, and it'd probably be best to start at the basics as a beginner.
Low and behold, you create this video literally 4 days ago! I'll be studying your videos for the rest of the week! You, sir, are a legend!
You’re awesome !!!!!!!!!
Do you have an exercise video that we can follow along? I have been following you but I do better if I can follow along with a video esp if I have a short time to exercise. For example, I can go to exercise if I attend a yoga class or have a personal trainer
Will this get me jacked like uncle Iroh?
Best beginner routine i've seen. I'm beginning it now in France 🇫🇷 🙂
Hampton, you are a gift to us all. Thank you.
Welcome to my life. Would you like to work out with me? 😂 God sent this video to me. I think today is the day to get fit! Those couch potato days are over.
I love how truly accessible you make it. Not just the actual notions but the things you use since that is what most have access to. ❤
thank you for making fitness more available to everyone
Found you through FB reels. Thank you!
Hopefully you do the intermediate level next
Hi! Newbie question: how long should i wait between sets? is there anything i need to do between sets?
Much love!
Just wanted to say thank you!
You have been one of my major motivators in getting healthy. I have been working on my nutrition as well as exercising. In just 4 months, I have lost 36 lbs and gained so much energy, mental clarity and confidence.
You are doing truly helpful and positive things!
How is this dude not crazy jacked yet
I'm curious of one thing that never was sure for me.
Can reach hyperthophy, so build muscles on range of 30-50 reps x3 sets? What is limitation of that… There's always so many information syaing strenghts 6-10 reps building muscled 10-15 reps.. What about 40 reps? It's idk just condition? Never get clear answer on that topic.
You are very good and a humble guy ,seriously man
For Horizontal Pull Ups, I was feeling a pain in my neck, but after really focusing on the down and back shoulder thing, along with the "rest" as he calls it at the bottom of the movement, I was able to near double my reps without the neck pain. Proper breathing also really helped.
Im greatful about the this video, I always wondered about the micro adjustments and this video kinda cleared up some confusion. I started doing this routine a while ago but sadly put a stop to it, this video mightve just motivated me to get back on the fitness routine!
Stay healthy everybody
I've been following the hybrid routine for 8 months and it's really helped with rebuilding my strength after a rough period with my health and losing a very unhealthy amount of weight. Hoping to expand my skills someday!
Thanks Hampton. You’re so generous with info. I’ve benefited from these exercises and I’m now working towards the gold standard.
Thank you! I wanted a program which I have to do everyday so I can build up the motivation and consistency first. I made up my own but this is even better!!
Thanks Hampton! You kindness really translates
Thanks Hampton, have a beautiful day!
