10 Home workouts you can start today

January 11, 2019

1. Squats
You don’t need any weights at all to start this exercise. Simply choose an open clear area and lower your body by bending your knees, bending slightly at the hips and standing back up. Remember to keep your shoulders square (chest out, butt out) and keep your center of gravity parallel to the ground. Try doing sets of 25 repetions for 3-5 sets every day. If this routine becomes too-routine try changing it up with some different variations of squats.
2. Jumping Lunges
Hopefully you live down stairs or your neighbors understand that good things require sacrifice. You can perform this exercise by assuming a lunge position and rather than coming to a standing position, jump while changing your position mid-flight to the opposing leg. Lower yourself and repeat the motion without taking breaks. This workout is sure to burn in your quads and is good for toning your leg muscles. Try this for 3-5 sets of 15 repetitions.
3. Push Ups
This is a classic and timeless workout and is also a great metric for true strength. Push ups are also a great way to build volume in your chest and shred your chest muscles. Go for a set that you can handle, that wont completely exhaust or injure you then slowly increase your repetitions. Try these for 3-5 sets of 20-30 reps.
4. Crunches
Crunches work to tighten up your abs and build your core strength. These can be performed in a number of ways. The simplest way requires you to lay on the floor with your legs elevated and ankles crossed. Once in this position squeeze your abdominal muscles raising your head slightly off the ground each time, without sitting up fully. You may also do the “cross-over” version of this exercise, touching your elbow to your knee on the opposite side your body. This version of the exercise will work your obliques as well as the abdominal muscles in the front of your body.
5. “Pencil” Squats
This is going to be a challenge. Pick any number from 5-10 pencils and line them up in a straight line. Pick the first one up and place it back down. Now pick up the first two pencils, including the one you just put down, placing them back in their original places, i.e placing one one down and stepping back to place the first one down. Repeat this action while adding to the number of pencils you pick up by one, until you have picked up all of them. If you feel up for the challenge you may also work your way down from the highest number of pencils you are working with.
6. Planks
Planks require and build your endurance in your core. The exercise is simple, but challenging. Lay flat on your stomach and using your elbows, elevate your body just slightly while keeping your legs straight and stretched out. Maintain this position for 1-2 minutes, or for the duration of what ever song you are listening to at the time. Do this for 2-4 sets a day and your core is sure to firm up.
7. Leg lifts (Abs)
Lay flat on your back and elevate your feet for 6 inches. Hold this position for 30 seconds to 1 minute. As an added challenge separate your feet while they are elevated and bring them back together to perform scissor kicks.
8. Bicycles (Abs)
This exercise is performed similarly to a crunch. You will lie on your back with your legs straight. Lift one elbow in a crunching position while lifting your leg on the opposing side until your elbow and knee touch. Immediately repeat this motion with your other elbow and opposing knee. to complete one rep. Perform this motion continuously for 20-40 repetitions for 3-4 sets a day or when ever you have are doing abs.
9. Sumo Squats
This lift is performed as a regular squat however the placement of your feet should be wider and your feet will be pointed outward versus directly in front of you. Once in this position, lower your body until your butt almost touches the floor and come back to a standing position. Remember to keep your chest and butt out as much as is possible. Try these for 3-5 sets of 15.
10. Dips
To perform this exercise you will need a little bit more space as well as a chair or some sort  of edge to hold onto. Position your self on the front side of the chair with your back still facing the front side chair. Grip the chair from behind all the while facing away from from the chair. With your legs stretched out in front of you, keep the heels of your feet planted and lift your self up using your arms, to starting position. Lower your self and lift your self back up for 1 repetition. Try this exercise for 3-5 sets at 20 reps per set.

TIME TO GET BIG
I find that butterfly press and upward cable fly’s are the best for building chest volume, vs a traditional bench press. Here I follow up a heavy set with an immediate drop set just to shred the muscle. Don’t mind the rocking or the face lol, sometimes you just have to get it done. Coming for the 15lbs I lost! God bless. .

Consistency has been a challenge, therefore I’m Consistency has been a challenge, therefore I’m not where I want to be physically. However voices of encouragement get me back to doing the things that help me win. Time to get big, just want to do my best, not be limited, think and do big things. We can do big things, we can do hard things, with the right mindset.

More pull downs this time around but it felt good. Push yourself and don’t sell yourself short. And keep lifting, bless. .

Do what you must. But do it, actually do it. 4x12- Do what you must. But do it, actually do it. 4x12-15 on pull downs. Switch to close grip and repeat. This was the last set on the third grip, so 12 sets in total. Bigger backs! .

I do more than just pulldowns in the gym lol (will I do more than just pulldowns in the gym lol (will supply proof). This wasn’t part of a full back day, just three it in to stimulate my back. These videos help me because I’ll see a video and think “oh I was bigger then, what happened” not body conscious but just an observation I make. This was 130lb, I think a good goal would be 175 or 190 for a heavy day and 160 for regular repetitions. Remember to eat right and keep your form, in the gym and out the gym. Healthy bodies, healthy minds, healthy hearts. God bless, well lifting. .

In my Cold Play voice “Nobody said it was eeeaaz In my Cold Play voice “Nobody said it was eeeaazay..”
Honestly though, I’ve said it before, this is my favorite workout. It’s not all I do for shoulders but when it comes to building volume and definition in the deltoids this might be the best workout to do. Set a goal, pray and keep pushing. God bless. .

Close grip pull downs to work out the whole back. Close grip pull downs to work out the whole back. I did these for 4 sets of 12 among other grips on the pull down. I find that leaning back slightly while bringing the weight down helps to engage/target the back muscle. I don’t rock but I don’t remain as stationary as I try to when using a wide grip. .

Arnold Press! My favorite workout, I don’t know Arnold Press! My favorite workout, I don’t know when my healthy obsession with this workout started but I know that I do it every single time I enter the gym, know matter if it’s chest, back or leg day- Arnold Press to finish.

I used to struggle doing 50’s for one rep, even a few years ago 50 still heavy although I was repoing 50’s at that time. Who would have thought that I would be able to rep 60’s sitting down. The heaviest I go even standing is 70 which is on a good day and is a true workout. Who knows will I hit 100 lb. Arnold Press? Time will tell but for now I focus on form and feeling the burn.

If you’re looking for a good shoulder workout, add this to your workout for sets of. 10-20 reps. This is one of the best deltoid/shoulder exercises that I can recommend. Really the effects of any workout are amplified once torque is added to the motion, within reason of course. Ok go get it and stay fit. God bless. .

Leg day had me bout to tap out, only because I’d Leg day had me bout to tap out, only because I’d been out of it for so long. That’s why consistency is important, not only to train the mind but to let your body know what’s up. Anyhow this is a segment of my session, now reposing 275, soon 315+. Good work.

Was a pleasant Saturday morning. Started out slow Was a pleasant Saturday morning. Started out slow then picked up in intensity. When I lift I try to use controlled focused movements vs just throwing the weight and making it move. There are instances where I simply want to lift the weight, e.g very heavy weight. I do plan to increase the weight as high as posible. This is part of a pyramid I did across five plates. .

I used to think back exercises didn’t work for m I used to think back exercises didn’t work for me but I figured out that I had to activate the right muscles to engage the lift. I used light weight for a high number of reps (20-30..40 even) until I felt the burn in the muscles that I was trying to target. This allowed for the right muscles to be involved with the lift and not allow other muscle groups to over compensate. Of course proper form has. Lot to do with which muscles report to duty. For pull downs I like to keep it behind the head for as long as I can it one more thing I’ve figured out is sometimes you just got to make the weight move and get it how you can, which is why I switch up to the front version of this lift. Best of lifting. Healthy minds, healthy heart and bodies. More life. God bless. #timetogetbig #ttgb #gymlife #backday #gains #pulldowns #moreworktodo #morelife #glorytoGod
