How does one work out at home?
I'm completely new to working out, and I planned to go to the gym, but I kinda picked a bad time to start getting my shit together.
push ups
Check out the pinned messages above, prison workouts one to start with for no weights / kit at home. I've a couple of body weight books, plus a load of old plates and a couple of bars. No bench so make do with kick pad and axle stands. How is your general health? Weight etc? Any underlying issues or injuries?
1) Thank you for helping my stupid ass. I suppose I should have checked the pinged messages first.
2) I had asthma when I was younger, I'm 16M 6'0ish and 155ibs last time I checked, Not horribly obese, but not fit or anything. I have this thing on my shoulder that my doctor couldn't identify, but I cant feel it, nor does it bother me.
Here's where I started 7 years ago:
Thank you again. I'll pay it forward
Set yourself time and goals, nothing should deviate you. Be insistent, this is not a chore, it is improving both your mental and physical wellbeing. With asthma (I was / am) watch your upper cardio limits when you need a lot of O2. I rarely use my inhaler but 30 years on I still keep one in date.
I'll keep that in mind. I live in a place with very high altitude, so I have little air comparatively. But I've learned to live with it. And now that I's been around 3 or 4 years seince its bothered me
One good thing for motivation is track what you do in a notepad. Start small, then a milestone feels like an achievement than going all out and making yourself ill and risking injury. Good luck!
I thank you for your help. Good luck to you too : )
np 😀
@itstooslim Pin this wise mans workout plan, its very nice
@HaroldShand how can I sprint if Im fat af should I lose weight by walking first and then implement it?
@Mr. Verboten - you have access to stairs? Climb stairs for strength, steady descent for coordination. Lift weights. You should look at diet tbh. I started running and switched the ‘healthy’ snacks and meals but in truth I was still smashing carbs that I had no muscle to burn. Went paleo / Atkins (wtf you wanna call it) and lost 2lb a week steady over 5-6 months. Giving up sugar was harder than stopping smoking tbh.
If you can hill or trail walk is good too. Lower impact on knees and steady cardio load. @shazoooo says a lot of sense, useful cardio and lifting. Clearing veg beds and orchard is proper hard graft. Fucking brambles.
Thank you both, I started walking 4 miles in the morning and my neighborhood is built on hills so thats a plus
Also, you can't escape genetics
Then focus on exercise
My dad and mom were skinny
Dad had a chad bacck
My mom and dad are fat, my brother and I are not.
I'm getting in the shower now, I'll take a pic of my build and document my intake
I don't work out, I don't exercise other than manual labors
I know see why you're Chad
Bro
