Using backyard for conditioning.

[ectional]

So I have a backyard which isn't in use so I thought to start using it for outdoor conditioning. But I really don't have any idea what to get there besides sandbags. It'd have to be weatherproof year around. Of course it can be used for burpees and such but I was thinking that there's room for equipment there.
What would you get?

Tractor tire(s). You can use one for flipping/ sledge work and you can turn another into DIY prowler/sled.

Another great option (imho) to build pull-up/dip station and to hang rings and climb rope.

Smashing slam ball to the ground is also a fun.

I wish I had reasonable back yard. I’d live there

I'd say a homemade dip/pull-up station and a big tire for both flipping and sledgehammer work would be a great start.

If you have a tree, you could use it to tie a rope to for climbs, or as barkadion mentioned, tyres are fantastic, if you put a hole through it or simply wrap the rope around you can make a sled with it.

A floor to ceiling could work if you have an area for it, heavy bag, logs, dumbbells, sandbags, sledgehammers, tornado ball, all the fun stuff!

I do almost all of my Strongman stuff in my back yard. Not really relevant since you won’t likely do this stuff, but anyway. Axle/log clean and presses, atlas stones, keg/sandbag carries, yoke carries, farmer’s walks, sled pushes and pulls, tire flips, etc. All done outside. Any of these things can be conditioning if you put them into a medley.

All great ideas thanks. I will definitely look into getting some of those things.

That's how I used to do mine too. We would have "strongman Saturdays" where we would get together, lift, and eat and drink a beer after. Mostly log, axle, farmers, yoke, front carries with the yoke, kegs, and stones (obviously not all at once - typically we did some kind of carry, some kind of press, stones, grip work, and then a finisher). Car pushing was our favorite finisher - we did it most weeks. Sometimes we'd take our KBs for a long farmers walk around the neighborhood. Great times.

Haha are you Brooks Kubik from Dinosaur training? You basically quoted his book there.

I can think of much worse things to do on a Saturday
I wish I had friends who were into that sort of training, but I guess that is the joy of having moved around my whole life.
I will just have to stick to BJJ to get my social training in.

Kubik was a huge inspiration in my training. My wife's too. Part of the inspiration to call my youngest Brooks actually.
