I was guilt trapped to buy something completely unnecessary by my father
walking around the store, no toiletpaper, had a good chuckle
got the goods and went to the counter
3 seconds after i got in the line some ***CLEARLY SICK*** guy lines up behind me
stood there 50 cm away from me for 2 minutes, sniffing and coughing
I probably got the gift now, for an utterly stupid reason
and because of that reckless bastard behind me
Since the Gym closed I am trying to come up with a home workout plan, keep in mind I don't have any equipment. This is what I have atm any advice would be appreciated. Once this gets too easy I suppose I will increase to 12 each or add additional sets
10 Push Ups
10 Crunches
10 Squats
10 Seconds of Plank
10 Leg Lifts
10 Punches' Each Arm
10 Jumping Jacks
those rep amounts are nothing <:jej:612818843672379396>
it's not a terrible start but it's far too scattered
also no back exercises at all
hmmm
I'd cut the cardio
and add more sets
so you'd have something like
3 sets of 10 pushups
3 sets of 10 pull-ups (or as many as you can do, replace with chin-ups if none)
3 sets of 20 squats (holding a weight if possible)
3 sets of 20 crunches immediately followed by 30 seconds of plank
rest one day in between
maybe do cardio in the rest days
jumping rope is great cardio but really intense if you do legs the previous day
50 pushups out of bed, 3x10 pull-ups, 3X10 Dips, stretch, 2X60M strikeouts, run 6 400M sprint intervals, 4 mile cool down run, core work, and that’s a decent workout, works for me.
50 pushups out of bed seems excessive
Not really, wakes you right up, plus gives you the gratification of completing a task, thus making your day easier.
no I mean it's a lot of strain on the muscle
from what I understand the goal shouldn't be to do 69 million pushups
but to consistently increase the difficulty
Depends on your fitness level. I’ve been doing this stuff for about 4 years.
so if you can do 3 sets of 10 pushups, you should look into doing 3 sets of more difficult pushups
(incline, triangle, etc)
H Y P E R T R O P H Y
progressive overload etc
400M sprint intervals are the hardest part of my COVID-19 daily workout routine.
I don't have equipment for pull ups
I also don't have a ton of muscle mass tbh
I don’t have giant muscles either but you can still get stronger and acquire more muscle tone. Plus I only weight like 160 LBS.
"muscle tone" is just lowering your bodyfat %
so that what little muscle you do have shows better
The assumption that everyone has a pull up bar kind of irritates me when I am looking up workouts
usually done by lowering your caloric intake and doing more cardio
you still always need resistance training though
or else your muscles atrophy
