Must Do Exercises

Bodyweight Exercises…

You don’t see a lot of these being done nowadays in the gym. It bothers me to see every cable crossover machine taken in the gym, but no one bothers to use those pull-up bars right above your head. Incorporating bodyweight exercises into your training WILL get you stronger, so don’t ignore them.  Bodyweight exercises should be the staple to anyones training program. No matter what your training goals are, I feel you should be using them. Use them in your warm-up as well as in your training.

There are three bodyweight exercises I feel should be used consistently in your training:

Dips

Push Ups

Pull-Ups

Below is a short clip of my training performing one of my sets of weighted dips!!

When it comes to performing bodyweight exercises, there are numerous variations that could be used to make them more difficult. A few variations you could use in your training as you progress are:

Stability Ball Dips and Push Ups

Weighted Dips and Pull Ups

Chain Push ups, Dips, or Pull ups

BOSU Ball Push Ups

Elevated Push Ups

Med Ball Push Ups

Hope you enjoyed this quick post, be sure to use these bodyweight exercises as well as many others in your training!

GET AFTER IT!
