Bartendaz Video: Movement is Medicine
So, for those that know me, I’ve been doing more dynamic workouts instead of the heavy lifting. To get a more physical body instead of a bodybuilder / muscle head type. Nothing is wrong with either the bodybuilder or muscle head but since I don’t play sports or plan to compete …why? I’ve done the Lebron James workout and the 300 Workout , both are giving me the results I want…leaner and athletic.
So now I’m doing 20-25 pull ups like nothing and when I’m really pumped, I’m doing pull-ups with weights 10′s and 25′s(low rep/high sets). So with my chest all swole & pumped, beating my chest like a silver back gorilla. Some guy approaches me and asked ”Have you ever heard of BARTENDAZ?” And like the next cocky negro, I was like “yeah…yeah ..yeah!” So I go home have my protein shake, watch these guys on youtube and deflate my chest.
So I really thought I was working out….compared to these guys I was warming up!
These guys have actually started a movement that promotes physical fitness and self-empowerment through calisthentics, and they preach that “Movement is Medicine”.
They’ve done T.V., The Iron Ring, BET’s Reality MMA series, when they were working with Ludacris’s team, seminars and self improvement programs. If you’ve never seen these guys before, just be prepared to pick your jaw off the floor!
Yasin’s Giant Thinking presentations and Bar-Tendaz demonstrations offer a powerful and inspirational self-awareness program that empowers participants to overcome seemingly insurmountable obstacles in their lives. Demonstrations and presentations leave participants with concise actions they can immediately take to work toward achieving their goals. Though most of his efforts are aimed at helping inner city youth obtain and maintain a sense of worth and positive destiny,the training transcends age and station in life
Punctuated with thought-provoking examples and exercises, Giant Thinking Inc. and Bar-Tendaz presentations and seminars are proven in enabling participants to set and achieve goals, establish values by which to live, and face challenges and opportunities in a manner that will bring about success. Giant coined the phrase “Exercise Evolution” to describe his unique blend of calisthenics, physical and mental fitness exercises.We believe that when offered together a Giant Thinking seminar and Bar-Tendaz presentation are the unbeatable one-two combination for success!
Hassan Yasin is certainly dedicated to making sure that Giant Thinking / Bar-Tendaz becomes the premier program for those who seek to better themselves and our youth.
I’ve never attended any of their presentations and in working with children and coaching myself, I know there are techniques and principles that have to be kept in mind. I can not attest nor vouch for these guy in this arena. But if they are as intense with their workouts, as they are with their teaching priciples, a youth seminar with these guys can only be a win, win situation.
No Money, No Problem…No Motivation, No Problem. Today I give you 1-2-3 BARTENDAZ! Check ‘em out better yet give them a call!
The Iron Gym and Calisthenics Video
As with anything, I gotta do my research. I go on ebay, amazon and epinions and get favorable but mixed reviews. I’d say for 29, give it a try. No screws pins or installation, it even comes with straps for ab work. When you’re on the run and want to squeeze in a 20 minute workout this might come in handy. If you need help with sit-ups, push-ups, chin-ups, crunches, squats and dips here is the write up…

I’m not buying it or endorsing it cause I already own weights, have the perfect pushup and a pull up bar. I do like it and it does look interesting, maybe I got suckered by the music, fancy commercial and the guy with the six pack.
