Strengthen Up at Home with Bodyweight Workouts

Get Stronger with Bodyweight Exercises

You don’t need fancy gym equipment to get stronger. Bodyweight exercises use your own weight to build strength. These exercises are easy to do at home and are great for all fitness levels. Let’s look at some simple bodyweight exercises you can start today.

Squats

Squats are great for your legs and bum. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart. Bend your knees and lower your body as if you are sitting in a chair. Keep your back straight and don’t let your knees go past your toes. Stand back up. Try doing 10 squats to start.

Why Do Squats?

Squats make your legs and bum stronger. They also help you balance better and improve your overall fitness.

Push-Ups

Push-ups work your upper body. Start by lying face down on the floor. Place your hands on the floor, a little wider than your shoulders. Push your body up with your arms until they are straight, then lower yourself back down. Try doing 5 push-ups to start.

Benefits of Push-Ups

Push-ups strengthen your chest, shoulders, and arms. They also help to build a strong core, which is important for overall strength.

Lunges

Lunges help tone your legs. Stand with your feet together. Step forward with one leg and lower your hips until both knees are bent at about 90 degrees. Return to the starting position and switch legs. Try doing 10 lunges on each leg.

Why Do Lunges?

Lunges make your legs stronger and improve your balance. They also help you move better in daily activities.

Planks

Planks are excellent for your core. Start by lying face down on the floor. Lift your body up onto your toes and forearms, keeping your body in a straight line. Hold this position for as long as you can. Try holding for 10 seconds to start.

Benefits of Planks

Planks strengthen your core, back, and shoulders. They also help improve your posture and balance.

Glute Bridges

Glute bridges target your bum and lower back. Lie on your back with your knees bent and feet flat on the floor. Lift your hips towards the ceiling, squeezing your bum at the top. Lower back down. Try doing 10 glute bridges.

Why Do Glute Bridges?

Glute bridges help strengthen your bum and lower back. They also improve your hip flexibility and can reduce lower back pain.
