It’s understandable to be in a pickle on what exercises to do for fitness. Most people resort to going to the gym and doing as they see, and eventually hoping to find a rhythm. If you’re lucky, this approach may work for you, but for most people, it doesn’t, and if this is you, you’re in luck; in this article, we’ll show you 6 exercises you should do, and some of them don’t even require the gym or any equipment.
#1. Walking
This seems rather plain and hard to imagine as a work-out, but walking actually offers a range of health benefits. It improves blood circulation, lightens your mood, leads to weight loss, and according to research, a brisk one hour walk can burn up to 500 calories. Walking also leads to longer life and strengthens the muscles.
#2. Interval training:
Adding interval training to your workout will improve your fitness and help you burn fat quicker. This kind of training basically involves switching from high intensity workout to low intensity workouts. Professionals say that varying the intensity of your workout causes your aerobic system to adapt, and as it adapts and gets more power, you have more capacity to burn calories.
#3. Squats:
This is an exercise you can’t afford to neglect. They are a strength training exercise that targets multiple muscles simultaneously. These include the quadriceps, hamstrings, calves, and the gluteal muscles.
However effective exercise this may be, if you perform it wrongly, you wouldn’t achieve maximum results. To perform a proper squat, keep your feet shoulder-width apart, and your back straight. Bend your knees, lower you rear, and imagine you’re sitting into a chair. If you do this more than ten times, and you don’t begin to feel a strain on your legs, y
These are almost a variation to squats. They also work the quadriceps, hamstrings, calves, and gluteal muscles.
Performing lunges regularly gives you improved balance, and better posture. To perform a proper lunge, take a big step forward, keeping your spine in a neutral position. Then bend your knee at about 90 degrees, with the aim of keeping your weight on the back toes and dropping the knee of your back leg toward the floor.
#5. Push ups
An exercise that should and can be done by everyone. Many regard push ups as the most natural bodybuilding exercise, and similar to squats and lunges, it works multiple muscles on the body, including the chest, shoulders, and triceps.
To perform a proper push up, you should assume a face-down position, place your hands slightly wider than shoulder-width apart (this can be varied). Then place your toes on the floor and position your body diagonally, from your shoulders to your feet.
Your gluteal (butt) and abdominal muscles should be engaged. To perform a push-up, lower and lift your body by bending your elbows on going down and straightening them on coming up.
