Bartendaz

They call themselves the Bartendaz (because “it’s better to be behind this kind of bar than the other kind”), and they rely only on calisthenics and pullup bars that can be found in pretty much any playground in Harlem. Just because you can’t afford to join a gym doesn’t mean you can’t stay fit, and these guys are more fit than any gym rat we’ve ever met. Plus, they’ve turned this into a community-wide movement (“Health is wealth and movement is medicine”), encouraging the younger members to keep their grades up and stay in school. Yet another creative way to express your own unique individuality, through the moves you make on the bar and the creative names everyone is given, like “Transformer” and “Honeybee.”
