Want to exercise but don’t have any equipment? Here is a brief list of exercises (with descriptions) that only require your body!
Push-Ups
1. Lie prone (facing down) on the ground with your hands slightly wider than shoulder width apart.
2. With your back flat and body rigid and using the toes and the pivot point, press upward from the ground, fully extending the elbows to the starting position.
3. While maintaining a straight body, (back straight, head up) allow yourself to slowly lower to the floor until the chin makes contact with the floor/mat. Inhale during the downward movement.
4. Reverse the movement and press your body up to the starting position, again maintaining a flat back with the head up. Exhale during the movement.
Burpees
1. Starting position: Standing up right with your feet hip width apart, arms by your side.
2. Quickly squat down and put your hands on the floor in front of you.
3. Kick your legs out behind you, ending in a push-up position.
4. Quickly bring your legs back to the squatting position and stand up and jump into the air. Repeat. Breathe normally. Read more of this article »
