The best home workout for everyone!
If you are looking for the best in home training, then you have found it here, buddy. As a strength and conditioning specialist and personal trainer here in the Atlanta, Georgia area for over 10 years, I have used the following body weight training methods to instruct people on the best ways to train anywhere and at any time. We like to refer to this as home training, but it really just means being able to train wherever we are!
The best workout at home!
The best in home exercise routines involves training with body weights. In today’s economy, it is very common to hear people’s complaints about prices and concerns about various expenses. This is something that is particularly common in the fitness industry because those who don’t see fitness as a priority often perceive it as a luxury more than anything. Perhaps this is why we in America are the fattest country in the nation, but I digress. The point is that the best workouts don’t require a lot of equipment, if at all. If spending is your excuse for NOT exercising, that’s all you have; an excuse! The value of a truly great training program lies not in the amount of equipment, bells, and whistles you have, but in the effectiveness and dynamics of the training itself.
The really forceful exercise must involve the manipulation and movement of the resistance of our own body. This is the most natural state of the human body, but many of us do not get involved in it. I am a huge proponent of implementing training methods such as calisthenics, plyometrics, and various other movements resisted by the body. You can perform push-ups, burpees, and jumps in the comfort of your own living room if necessary. If you have a job that requires you to travel regularly, this is another great training tactic you can adopt so you don’t have to worry about whether or not you can hit the hotel gym.
Bodyweight exercises like calisthenics and plyometrics keep your nervous system in shape. You maintain strength and endurance throughout your body in your joints, tendons, ligaments, and certainly your muscles. By engaging in whole-body movements that will challenge you systemically as a whole, you can get a much more impactful workout and save a lot of time in the process. It’s not about the length of your workouts, but how much work you can get done in the shortest amount of time. This is the key to getting into good physical shape. To get the most out of it, you need to increase your work capacity. I strongly believe in this and my most successful clients have benefited the most for this very reason.
If you haven’t yet started adopting this style of training for your workouts at home, then you’re missing out. Take the time to learn more by accessing more of my articles on the subject for free. Remember that almost everyone can train hard, but only the best train smart, my friend!
