For the average person, finding time to go to a gym can be difficult when balancing time for a job and/or children. Depending on circumstance you may not make it as often as you like.
Not every workout has to be on a treadmill or weights machine. If you have weights at home that’s great as you can do things like arm curls without leaving the home. But there are home exercises that are just as effective as those at the gym.
Here’s a home workout that is ideal if you don’t have a gym, or you are away travelling.
One of the best plyometric exercises, as it will increase your heart rate and put a burn to your legs. This exercise will require balance and coordination, as it is more difficult than the standard lunge.
For more burn on your chest than the standard press up provides, the wider press up is a great option. Moving your hands out to three or four inches wider than shoulder-width will turn out to be a greater muscular workout, as it is the result of the strain due to lack of leverage.
A great leg exercise to do at home, that will definitely work your glutes and even your abs. It can be done with both legs at the same time or one leg simultaneously. To ensure maximum intensity on the legs make sure your head, shoulders and arms are pinned to the ground.
The back extension exercise both stretches and strengthens your lower back. It’s the perfect complement to crunches to develop a strong, balanced midsection.
