I love Keg Conditioning.
Dave Lemanczyk clearly demonstrates the extraordinary potential of this simple conditioning tool. With no more than an empty keg (or partially-filled if preferred - more on that in a minute), a small training area and a bit of determination there is a wealth of power available. It really is an incredible tool.
Thick Rope is brilliant as a training tool. Whether it's something like the Battling Ropes for conditioning work or an Outlaw 120 for strength, rope training is superb. Highly recommended.
Suspension training is fantastic; particularly when you're travelling. Love it.
