Think bodyweight exercises are for wimps?
There’s a ton of misinformation about bodyweight training, so let’s bust three of the biggest myths around this kind of training:
Bodyweight exercises done properly hurt. They’re brutal.
Don’t believe me? Ask yourself, why do the military and Special Forces rely on bodyweight conditioning to knock recruits into shape?
Just think about it.
In real life combat situations muscles aren’t isolated… you use your whole body to run, duck, cover and get yourself into life-saving, combat-ready positions.
At the heart of military-style conditioning is the need for a high strength-to-weight ratio. This is developed through mastering the core bodyweight moves, including squats, pull-ups and push-ups.
Going back to basics isn’t a step backwards.
It’s proof you’re a master at full-body conditioning.
Just because you’re not lugging weights around the gym doesn’t mean you’re not tough.
The reason there’s a perception that you can’t pack on muscle through bodyweight training is a lack of understanding. You see, you need to understand how to choose the right progressions to increase your strength.
As long as there is tension on the muscle you can grow. Your muscle does not know if the resistance is an external weight or your own body.
Oh, and did I mention that it can be really tough.
Go on Youtube and you’ll find a ton of “supermen” showing off their bodyweight moves. Yes, these look impressive but don’t be fooled.
You don’t need to focus on super-advanced complex moves to chisel a strong foundation of functional strength.
You just need to do the right moves with the correct form with the right progressions.
Every bodyweight master started from the same point: working on the foundational moves which make up 90% of the strength types.
Only by focusing on the core moves which target each of the Four Strength Types will you really develop powerful “true strength”.
And the good news is these are simple and easy to master, as long as you choose the right training like the workout on the next page.

Everyone knows what is going on across the globe. The current pandemic has caused business establishments, tourist spots, 5-star hotels, and even gym and fitness studios to stop their operation. It may be difficult for gym-goers to follow their workout routine without the gym, but there are certain workout plans that are entirely possible to do at home.
There are a lot of possible ways to maintain the strength and muscle you gained from your training. Here are some workout plans you can do at home to keep your body healthy and fit.
While home workouts cannot replace the intensity of bodybuilding sessions at the gym, there are ways you can sweat out at home. One way to do that is by doing a set of burpees, you only need one spot to perform the exercise. This exercise includes squats, push-ups, and mountain climbers. A good starting point is from 5 to 10 sets, however it depends on your fitness level.
If you are not comfortable with performing burpees, there are a variety of other bodyweight exercises. Air squats, lunges, push-ups, mountain climbers are some of the exercises that offer a variety of difficulty. When you combine these basic bodyweight movements, it results in a quick yet effective home workout.
It is not necessary to place your body through intense cardio runs. As long as you are performing bodyweight movements and doing a full workout, you are doing great.
You may have the basic gym equipment at home, but there are some exercises that need the support of benches. If you want to add some variation to your workout plan, you can always be creative. There are several things you can use inside the house.
There are chairs or sofas that can support your squats and other bodyweight exercises. Moreover, if you love weightlifting, you can always customize a full-weighted barbell.

Stay-at-home gym sessions are not an excuse for not observing cleanliness. No matter where you conduct your workout session, it is best to practice the good habits of proper hygiene.
Before leaving your spot, wipe pools of sweat to eradicate possible bacteria. Aside from taking a shower after a workout, it is important to wash hands regularly. Experts suggest washing hands often and using alcohol or hand sanitizers to eradicate possible causes.
Alcohol is a great alternative for handwashing when water and soap are not available. However, with the supply shortage, you may use a hand sanitizer. However, you have to make sure that you choose hand sanitizers that have at least 60% percent alcohol and are made from a well-trusted hand sanitizer gel manufacturer.
While you focus on workout programs, do not forget the importance of a healthy diet. Proper nutrition helps in the recovery and optimization of your body. Make sure that you have the needed nutrition to maintain or gain muscle. As much as possible, maintain the diet you have been following even before the quarantine happened.
Rest and recovery are as important as the workout plans. Adequate rest is needed to build strength, muscle, and endurance. More so, during a workout, your body undergoes microscopic tears to your muscles. Thus, having adequate rest will allow your muscles, nerves, bones, and tissues to rebuild.
Gym-goers are stuck at home and some of them are worried they might lose their sacrificed gains. But, with the mentioned workout programs, it may be helpful and proactive for you while staying at home.
