Sometimes we feel like we don’t have the time or energy to exercise.

This is a normal experience that most people live with daily.

But, there is hope! Bodyweight Exercises.

If you can perform just a few simple exercises every few days you will magically find some energy and time lying about your home.

Prove me Wrong!

Just Do it for 2 weeks and experience the change.

So, take a few minutes and perform these exercises at home, Now!

Here are 3 kick-butt bodyweight exercises you can do anytime, anywhere to burn fat, stay energized, and avoid overeating.

 

These Bodyweight exercises help you burn fat shockingly fast, without any fancy equipment.

    • Any Single-Leg Exercise

      The pistol (single-leg squat to the floor) is the most advanced 1-leg exercise.

      But you can also do assisted single-leg squats with a band, or onto a bench, or even with a Stability Ball between your back and the wall.

      If you aren’t ready for single-leg squats, you can use Bulgarian Split Squats, Reverse Lunges, regular split squats, or lying 1-leg hip bridges if you are a beginner.

  •  
    • Decline Push-ups

      These are harder than normal push-ups, thanks to your elevated feet.

      In this position, you can still use a close grip to fatigue your triceps, a “piked-hip position” to build your shoulders, or even the Spiderman leg motion to work on your abs.

  •  
    • Bodyweight Inverted Rows

      I choose these over chin-ups and pull-ups because bodyweight rows let your chest rest, while your back is strengthened.

      It’s the perfect compliment to a push-up.

      Do 8-12 repetitions per exercise.

      Don’t rest between exercises.

      Go through the circuit up to 3 times, resting 1 minute after each circuit.

 

For a once-per-month challenge, do each exercise to failure in your final round through the circuit.
