Is it possible to do this program without a squat rack or gym?
If someone works out at home with dumbbells a bench and pullup bar can this program still work for them like Ross Enamaits Never Gymless or Infinite Intensity?
Are there modifications or templates as I understand them, that someone can use with TB1 the strength one?
Thanks

Re: No squat rack
So you have a barbell and plates though? Then yes absolutely. The strength program consists of recommended exercise clusters, like BP/SQ/DL, MP/Front Squat/Weighted Pull-ups, or even weighted bodyweight movements like Pistols/Push-ups/Pull-ups. Ultimately you can create your own cluster if need be. As long as you can work your legs with an exercise you can load incrementally, it doesn't matter what exercise you choose. Some people don't squat at all, and just do minimalist templates like DL/BP/WPU.Emanname wrote:Is it possible to do this program without a squat rack or gym?

Re: No squat rack
You'll need a barbell and plates (not a squat rack) to do the maximum-strength training portions of the program properly.Emanname wrote:Is it possible to do this program without a squat rack or gym?

For everything else (Endurance/HIC/Strength-Endurance) you'll be fine with what you have.
Re: No squat rack
I have no squat rack, which is partly why I do zerchers. You can always find a way to adapt, I think.

Could power clean the bar up into front squats. Might be tough when you max out of if you're front squatting a ridiculous amount of weight
Re: No squat rack
I ran a block of fighter and a block of operator using Bench/WPU/Deadlifts when squatting was bugging my hip. If I was in a position without a rack Id run it again.

Re: No squat rack
If I had no rack I'd just put the barbell on some boxes and choose front squats instead of back squats. I'd make sure you're doing a training max instead of a true max as well. Seems simple enough.

If I didn't have a rack I'd do belt squats.
