Body Weight Workout
Body Weight Training
There are many individuals looking to get fit and are not sure how to. Society is under the impression that you need to join a gym and get a trainer. Yes, those are helpful but are not necessary. There are many exercises you can do on your own that are weight bearing and can provide similar results to that of which you would get at a gym. Our Exercise Physiologist at Dr. Osborn's office, Fred has put together a great body weight workout that you can do at home or on the go. This workout takes 15 to 30 minutes to complete and is a great overall workout to help motivate you as well as work your core muscles.
No gym, no problem! You can get a great workout with 15-30 minutes of body weight only exercises. Performing body weight exercises are easy to add to any workout regimen because they're easily modified to challenge anyone. Adding extra reps, performing the exercises faster or super slowly, taking shorter breaks, or adding a ballistic movement (like a clap at the top of each push-up) are just a few ways to make the simplest workout tougher. And with each added modification, your progress is obvious. Workouts are very efficient because you can move from one exercise to the next without adjusting equipment. This will help keep your heart rate up burning more calories in a shorter period of time and increasing your aerobic capacity. By limiting rest time in between exercises you can combine a cardio and strength session performing a body weight workout. Sessions can be modified to concentrate on core, flexibility, and balance. Body weight exercise programs are also ideal for injury prevention and you’ll never have an excuse not to work out. No equipment needed and even 15 minutes of constant motion can improve your fitness. At the Center of Health and Sports Medicine our RISE Wellness clients that travel or are unable to get to the gym are prescribed a body weight workout they can do anywhere. See the link below of an example of a 15 minute workout you can try today.
