It is that easy.
You don't need to do crazy exercises.
Bodyweight, dumbbells, barbells, kettlebells, ropes, bands, balls, cables, tires, cool equipment, and other basic pieces of equipment that hold some kind of logical lifting reason are all fair game.
When it comes to using other tools, exercise gets weird. It gets the, "Why???" treatment.
You've seen it: The guy lifting the bench as he does pull-ups. It's on Instagram.
You've seen it: The same guy pedaling a bicycle as he holds himself up on the pull-up bar. It's on Instagram.
You've seen it: Gym members using the weight of a cable apparatus to prople themselves upwards like a strange weighted ballet jump. Let's call it a "whatsthatouette". It's on social media.
You've seen it: Exercises that would through your entire body out of line. Who says:
"Yea, today I have 3 sets of 4 reps of heavy weight plate stack lifts while doing a one-arm pull-up."
Why?
You've seen it: The guy who bench presses while doing a back bend. Why? OK, he's flexible. But, why make this scene in working out? Individuals already have challenges starting a workout regimen. Now, we have to see stuff we would not do anywhere.
These acts lead me to say...
You do you. I'll do me.
