Bodyweight Workout at Home with charleeatkins
If you don't have a plan, basic home workouts usually fall into one of two categories: lethargic, uninspired rounds of simple movements like pushups and situps, or some crazy on-site activity with jumps, belches, and any speed you can imagine until you're burned out. Neither path is necessarily bad - the important thing is that you move around anyway - but they could certainly be more efficient.
She wants to show that you can increase your heart rate at home without swinging around or hurting yourself on endless burpees. You can be smart and sweat at the same time.
Atkins shares her tips for body weight training here:
- Choose exercises that use more than one muscle group. For example variations of lunges and squats.
- Add plyometry to some exercises at the beginning of your workout to increase intensity.
- Complete at intervals, but don't make the intervals too long. Work with a ratio of 1: 1 or 2: 1.
- The exercises should not take longer than 60 seconds without properly recovering.
- Always include mobility in your training.
- With these tips, Atkins shared one of her favorite body weight HIIT routines. To try it out for yourself, all you need is some freedom of movement and a mat.
Do each exercise for 40 seconds and then rest for 20 seconds. Do not take an extra break between rounds.
- 1.5 Squatting and jumping
- Plank and arm extensions
- Limits
- Lunge and rotation of the runner
- Lunge step matrix
Complete 6 laps of the routine for a full 30 minute sweat session.
