  People train with the bare equipment and can be as strong as an ox.

  why not? Of cuz!
  
  A pull up bar, a set of parallel bars, or just the floor, along with a bag filled with some weights should suffice.
  
  It's just that a good gym gives better convenience, comfort and ambience to train in.

  The average caveman is stronger than the average man on the street.
  
  They didn't have gyms back then.
