Good simple workouts?




Ozzie


What are some easy at home daily workouts


Answer
Not sure if you have any workout accessories such as dumbbells or anything of that nature. I am going to assume you have nothing but an open space. Do combinations of these things with no breaks keeping the intensity high and I think you will find you get a good sweat and a good workout.

Pushups
Situps
Pull ups (if you have a bar or beam or something)
Skipping
Jumping High
Straight Leg Jumping
Running on the Spot
Burpies
Jumping Jacks
Squat Jumps
Calf raises
Squats
Lunges
Lunge Jumps
Rolling side to side
Lateral Lunges and Slides
Stretch a lot at the end

I would break it down like this
1. Do a hard set such as pushups
2. Do 1 min of easy running on the spot
3. Hard set of Sit ups
4. Easy skipping
5. Squat jumps
6. Running on the spot

and so on. Keep breaking up your hard workouts with skipping and running on the spot to mix the cardio with strength or hard and easy.

Good luck. Get in shape

What is considered a workout?




D-rew


Just curious about what is actually considered a workout to many people.
I'm not sure if protein should even be that BIG of a part in what i do because my workout isn't going to the gym and lifting for a half hour.
Mine is just running on the treadmill and then doing a few different type of lifts with dumbbells.
Would I still need to incorporate protein into MY workout? or is it only for hardcore workouts
also is it better to have protein before or after MY workout? =] thanks to all who respond
good tips so far =]
also what protein do you guys take afterwards? i don't want to eat like a full meal right after a workout but any suggestions on what would be good for a small workout?



Answer
A workout for me is doing any exercise that isn't included in my daily routine, and is for the purpose of exercising. For example, I don't consider walking to school a workout, because I do it no matter what, but if I were to walk to the park and take a run because I wanted to exercise I would think of it as a workout.

Also, only use protein if you are looking to gain weight (muscle) from your workouts.
