E51 - Bodyweight exercise for beginners

In this episode, I discuss how to implement a body weight only exercise program, to kick start your resistance based workouts. Our body weight is a physiological free weight, in that it's not attached to a fixed frame or object for support or function. Our upper and lower body limbs, make up a large part of our anatomy and subsequently we are naturally predisposed to workouts focusing on arms and legs. Whilst this is okay, it's important to ensure our core muscle groups are also challenged for strength, stability and functional movements. The good news is we generally don't require anything to start bodyweight workouts, other than floor space and adequate lighting, therefore most rooms in our homes are sufficient to use for a starting base. A spare bedroom, dining room, kitchen or even the garden can all provide us with enough space for on the spot exercise. Find out in this podcast, things to consider when starting at home, work or outdoors and get moving for a healthier body.
