Bodyweight Training Essentials
Wooden Gymnastics Rings
Antranik recommends these rings because they’re WOODEN which provides the best feel and grip (over plastic) and come with longer straps than others for greater setup versatility, all at a great price.
Iron Gym Doorway Pullup Bar
The Iron Gym Pullup Bar is probably the most popular, classic, easy-to-install pullup bar without a need for drilling or permanent installation. It’s very affordable and works with any doorway that has a sturdy, flat-top trim molding for the bar to rest on. It will allow you to have a place to hang to do your pull-ups and anything else hanging related.
Duonamic Eleviia Portable Pullup Bar
Doorway pullup bars are very common but not easy to travel with. People often sacrifice their workouts when traveling because they don’t have a way to hang and do their pulling work. The Duonamic Eleviia solves that issue entirely because the whole thing fits into a small bag easily and can be put up or down in a second.

For Recovery and Wellbeing
TriggerPoint Foam Roller
If you’re new to foam rolling and want something effective but not too aggressive, this one is perfect.
Rumble Roller Foam Roller
If you’re experienced with foam rolling and want more pressure or something more aggressive, the black Rumble Roller (Extra Firm) foam roller is very powerful.
Lacrosse Balls for Self-Massage
Standard lacrosse balls are hard, dense balls that are perfect for self-massaging areas like the glutes, feet, and upper back in supreme ways that foam rollers can’t.
TigerPaws for the BEST Wrist Protection
If your wrists are sensitive or in pain anytime you put them on the floor into extension (for example from handstands, pushups, or yoga), these TigerPaws wrist guards are the best things I’ve found that provide SERIOUS protection that allows me to train without pain. Use the discount code ANTO and you will get a 10% discount.
ArmAid for Self-Massaging Forearms
If you hang a lot, are a climber, a musician, a chef, or even a massage therapist yourself, your forearm muscles can benefit from self-massage from the ArmAid as nothing helps relax more powerfully than the ArmAid. Use the coupon code ANTO and you will get a 10% discount.
Yoga and Flexibility Essentials
Yoga Blocks and Straps
Yoga blocks and straps make many exercises a lot more accessible with proper alignment and provide much needed gradual progression for deeper stretches. They are NOT only for beginners. The blocks are also helpful for elevating your hands for deficit pushups or L-sits and the like.
Manduka Yoga Mats
Manduka makes the highest quality yoga mats that will last you for years and years. They are pricey but it’s my recommendation if you want GREAT. They have many types of mats to choose from, including longer versions if you’re tall.
Sleep Quality and Breathing Aid
Breathe-Right Nasal Strips
Nasal strips have been a game changer with how much better sleep I get when I put them on before bed. They are just a tape you put on your nose that opens up your nostrils for more airflow and it’s astonishing how much better the sleep quality feels. This is crucial if you have any snoring, mild sleep apnea, or allergies.
