Body Weight Exercises To Build Muscle & Blast Fat ANYWHERE .






No time to get to the gym? No problem. You can use your own weight to build muscle.



Here's How:


1- Bodyweight Exercise 1: Push Ups:

How To:

Primary Muscle(s): Chest, Triceps

(1) Extend your legs and get into push up position. Your hands should be slightly wider than shoulder-width. Keep your hips up so your body is in a straight line.

(2) Lower down until your chest hits the floor. Press through the floor and powerfully explode up. Keep your elbows tucked in throughout.

If regular push ups are too difficult, start with your knees on the floor.



2- Bodyweight Exercise 2: Spiderman Push Ups:

How To:

Primary Muscle(s): Chest, Triceps, Obliques, Lower Abs

(1) Move into push up position.

(2) Lower your body, and as you descend, pull your right knee in towards your elbows. Repeat and continue to alternate sides.








3- Bodyweight Exercise 3: Twisting Push Ups:

How To:

Primary Muscle(s): Chest, Triceps, Obliques

(1) Move into push up position.

(2) Lower down, and as you press up, twist your body and extend your left hand up into the air. Your body should be supported by your right hand, so that you form a “T” shape.

(3) Lower back down and repeat for the opposite side.

4- Bodyweight Exercise 4: Incline & Decline Push Ups
