The good news is you can get an athletic and fit body without going to the gym and do it in the comfort of your own home and we will give you the workouts to get it done.
Let’s break down the athletic body and give you the workouts now, shall we?
What is an Athletic Body?
This is a simple question, but the answer really isn’t that simple. When you think about different athletes from different sports they all have different body types, shapes and sizes.
For the sake of this article, we are going to say the athletic body is built for performance. This means that it is strong, lean and has good endurance. It isn’t just muscles for show like a bodybuilder, it is about more of an overall fitness and strength. It means if you join in a game of volleyball or run an impromptu 5K with friends, you will be able to hold your own or even excel.
How to Get an Athletic Body
To get an athletic body you don’t need to train just like a pro athlete but you will need to need to follow a couple of principles they use.
Athletes train using mainly compound exercises. These are exercises that use more than one muscle group at once. An example of a compound exercise would be the bench press because you use your chest, shoulders and triceps during the exercises. These are the types of exercises we will be focusing on, they also give you more bang for your buck.
Another aspect of an athletic body is endurance. You can’t be someone who just lifts weights and that’s it and still consider yourself an athlete. You need a body that shows and goes, that means you are going to need to have some level of endurance as well. You don’t need to be running marathons or anything like that but you should be able to play some basketball or go on a jog without huffing and puffing and coughing up a lung. While athletes may lift weights they are not just weightlifters if you get what I mean.
The great part is we can do all of this with home workouts since they are all bodyweight exercises you can do at home or in a hotel or most anywhere really. Don’t think you can’t build muscle with bodyweight workouts. After all, Herschel Walked did nothing but bodyweight training and he was a beast. So, without further ado let’s get to the workouts.
Benefits of Working Out At Home
The benefits of home workouts are plentiful and often underrated. First off, they’re incredibly convenient. There’s no commute to and from a gym, saving you time and potentially money on gas or public transport. Plus, your home is always open, so you can fit in a workout whenever it suits your schedule, be it early in the morning or late at night.
Cost-effectiveness is another big plus. Gym memberships and boutique fitness classes can get pricey, but home workouts require little to no financial investment.
Sure, you could splurge on some dumbbells or a yoga mat, but there are countless effective bodyweight exercises that require zero equipment. Over time, those savings can really add up.
Let’s also talk about privacy. Some people feel self-conscious while exercising in a public space. Home workouts offer the comfort of a judgment-free zone where you can go at your own pace, try new things, and make all the funny faces you want without fear of judgment. Plus, no waiting for machines or negotiating with others for space.
Another benefit is customization. At home, you have the liberty to create your own workout routine that targets your specific needs and goals. You’re not bound by the group classes or trainer-led sessions that may not entirely suit what you’re looking to accomplish. You can focus on what really matters to you, making the workout as easy or challenging as you like.
Lastly, home workouts can lead to greater consistency. The fewer barriers there are to exercise, the more likely you are to stick with it. When the gym is just a room away, it’s a lot harder to come up with excuses not to go. Consistency, after all, is key when it comes to long-term fitness gains.
