If you ever find yourself at a loss for workout ideas, don’t feel like using weights or machines, or traveling, or looking for some great workouts to enjoy at home then you’ll be happy to know that you’ve already got everything you need.

What I mean is that by simply using your bodyweight you can enjoy incredible workouts that will not only help you burn fat but sculpt and tone your body as well.

Bodyweight workouts are not only great for beginners – they can even by used by the fittest people. To this day, some of my most challenging and calorie-crunching workouts revolve around nothing more than push-up and pull-up variations, some full body cardio movements, and some great core and abdominal exercises.

I’d like to share one such workout with you. So if you’re sick and tired of going to the gym and would like to try something new and fresh at home (or even while you travel) then give this bodyweight workout a shot. Believe me, it might be tougher than it looks so pace yourself.

Please note that this workout is designed for beginners so stay tuned for more advanced variations.

Bodyweight Workout Structure:

After your warm-up you will be performing a 6 exercise bodyweight circuit where you will perform as many reps as possible (where applicable) in 30 seconds. You will then rest 30 seconds before moving onto the next exercise. Repeat this circuit 2-3 times.

WARM-UP – Jogging on spot, jumping jacks (3-5 minutes)

CIRCUIT WORKOUT (30 seconds work, 30 seconds rest)

1. Y Squats

2. Plank

3. Standing Lunges

Imagine the convenience of having a trainer right beside you as you do your workout.

Your trainer plans your workout, tells you which exercise to do next, gives you constant tips on form and provides constant motivation to get you through your workout.  We have all read stories about celebrities using fancy personal trainers to get in shape fast for a film.

But hiring a personal trainer can get very expensive.  At roughly $75 per session, the cost of a personal trainer can quickly add up to hundreds of dollars per month.  Once you even find a trainer, then you have to schedule a time with the trainer, drive to meet the trainer and so on and so on.  Sounds inconvenient and expensive.

Here is where audio workouts can help.  Just like an in-person trainer, audio workouts keep you on track by putting the trainer right there in your mp3 player.  You get the benefits of a well-planned and effective workout,

Audio workouts are portable.  Your workouts fit inside your mp3 player and you take them wherever you want.  No more driving to the gym at inconvenient times.

Audio workouts are infinitely customizable.  You can choose from hundreds of different audio workout programs – from walking, running, yoga, strength training – even martial arts. The cost of each workout program is low so changing your workouts often is easy and affordable.
