Want to get in shape? Do this home exercises!

Hi guys! long time no post here in my beloved blog.. too busy doing nothing..ahehehe.. ok, on to the topic.. I have so many friends that are too skinny or too fat but doesnt do any exercises at all.. they always tell me that their too lazy to get up from their bed and go to the gym.. so i came up with this post!!! an easy to do guide/routine exercise to sculp those curveless body of yours(just kidding!) right in the comfort of your bedroom or living room.. good eh!? I know almost all of you dont have any weights but thats alright.. in this guide no weights are required, just the floor and yourself are what we need..ready? lets go!

Carlo's Home Exercise Routine

1.Press-up aka Pushups-theres a few variation of this,In the "full press up", the back and legs are straight and off the floor. Several variations are seen, besides the common press up. These include bringing the thumbs and index fingers of both hands together (a "diamond pressup") as well as having the elbows point towards the knees. These two variations are intended to put greater emphasis on the triceps rather than the shoulder and chest muscles. When both hands are unbalanced or on uneven surfaces, this exercise also works the body core. Raising the feet or hands onto elevated surfaces during the exercise emphasize the upper and lower pectorals, respectively.

I can do around 100 push ups everyday.. but for beginners like you, 50 reps everyday should be enough, if its too easy for you, then you should add more repetitions..

it develops the chest(do this to achieved ala Dingdong Dantes' chest),triceps and with ancillary benefits to the deltoids(shoulder), serratus anterior(under the armpits aka "palikpik", coracobrachialis and the midsection as a whole

2.Crunch-Proper starting form is lying face up on the floor with knees bent. Raise your head until your abs is stressed without raising your back from the floor. This is much more effective than the sit-up.Do around 40 reps of this per day, you could divide this into two sets.. example,first set,do 20 crunches, rest for 2 minutes then do another 20.This should be okay with beginners.Add reps if you got the hang of it.

It target the Abs

3.Air Squats- first, spread your legs as wide as your shoulder, put your hands behind your head.Slowly lower your self until your butt is parallel to the ground and raise yourself again.Do this until you cant take it anymore.I do this with a barbell on my shoulder whenever i go to the gym, but at home i just do the air squats because i don't have any barbells at home.

This targets the legs and the gluts also known as the butt

Thats all of the easy exercises I cant teach you for now, you should do this every other day or if you can, you could also do this everyday if you want.Good luck exercising guys!!!;p
