6 BENEFITS OF BODYWEIGHT EXERCISES & WHY YOU SHOULD DO THEM TOO.





 Bodyweight workouts have been something we’ve been doing for many years and still enjoy them. We personally have seen a huge improvement in our strength through bodyweight exercises.  By using just our bodies to get a good workout in empowers us inside and out. Just go do a headstand and you will see what we mean.

YOU CAN build strength by using just your body!

You will also notice your balance improve, your posture, even your mind will be sharper when doing more bodyweight exercises.

Some of the basic bodyweight moves are plank, push-ups, mountain climbers, lunges, etc. But as our Purely Fitters know, there are many other ways to use your body to challenge yourself.



1) flexible -do anywhere – limits your excuses, convenient, ”No time” really becomes no excuse.

2) cheap – non expensive way to workout

3) no limits – you control your tempo and intensity, as easy or as hard as you want

4) your body provides all the resistance you need.


5) highly efficient –> little time in between sets so keeps heart rate boosted and keep burning those calories, you don’t have to take as many breaks

6) both cardiovascular and strength training – win/win! You burn calories after you finish your workout

7) overall stronger core, be more flexible, and have better balance  –> can help with better posture  and improve overall performance.
