7. 6 Bodyweight Exercises To Try at Home

Let’s make the most of this quarantine.

The best part about bodyweight exercises: you don’t need anything for that. Just a lot of will and self-motivation to get that body moving and get fit But now that we’re at home, there’s no better time to push yourself and make the best of your health.

Here are 7 simple bodyweight exercises you can squeeze into your day anytime without dreading:

1.) MOUNTAIN CLIMBERS

Run against the floor like you’re running against the odds. Mountain climbers build upper body strength as well as the core since it makes you hold your bodyweight up for a long time. They’re great for building core strength, agility, and endurance.

2.) PRONE WALKOUT

Begin on all fours with only your hands and feet touching the ground. Engage the core, and then slowly walk forward with your hands but without moving your feet and toes. Then slowly walk backward. 10-15 loops are recommended for beginners.

3.) LUNGES

Lunges work your abdominals, back muscles, hamstrings and calves. You could make use of your hall, or simply while you’re watching TV. Lunges not only tone your body but also help improve posture and mobility.

4.) STAIR CLIMBING

It’s easy, it’s convenient, and requires no special time, place or equipment. Climbing stairs improves heart rate and body balance, tones the lower body especially the legs, and overall helps tone different parts of your body.

5.) PLANK

They’re one of the best core exercises that helps improve posture, flexibility as well as your metabolism. You could start off with the basic most front plank, then side, then reverse. Recommended time for beginners in planks is 30 seconds.

6.) MUSIC WORKOUTS

This is the most engaging way to be! You’re not only working out your whole body but also enjoying good music. Simply go to YouTube and search a workout routine to any music and you’re good to go for the duration. You could even include some Zumba in your routine.
