Image

 Home Workouts is the thing many people always wanted to perform. It is easy, affordable and time-saving. But in order to work out at home and to give a tough competition to the Gym athletes, we need to know the most effective and powerful workouts that are available to perform at home. 

We have to keep in mind that these workouts cover each and every muscle part and help in our muscle growth. 

So, let's get started:


1. Full-Body Stretching- Before starting any workout it is always necessary to warm up our muscles so that we do not encounter any injury during our exercise. So, full-body stretching is always required. You can start off with Toe Touch, Bicep and Tricep Stretch, Skipping, Jumping, etc. Stretching doesn't require any specific workout to perform but any free movement without the use of body weight can be used as stretching.

Perform your stretching for about 4-5 minutes before starting your workouts.

2. Push-ups- Everybody knows about this workout but only very few actually perform it. Push-ups is a very effective workout for your entire chest muscle. This single workout can build a proper definition of the chest if performed properly. I would suggest going with wide arms Push-ups as it will also help to widen your chest muscles. Always remember to keep your hips up and chest down while performing push-ups. Inhale while you go down and exhale while you are coming up.

                         SET: 3 SETS OF 12, 10 AND 8 REPETITIONS.


3. Pull-Ups- If you are looking to train your back at home without any equipment, then this workout is the best deal for you. This single workout will help in training of your entire back including the rear deltoids. At home you can perform these workout at any elevated surface above your head. To start widen your arms in paralle to your shoulders and then bring yourself up till your chin touches the surface. Hold in that position for about 2-3 seconds and then bring yourself back down. Inhale while you go up and exhale while you go down.

SET- 3 SETS OF 12, 10 AND 8 REPETITIONS.

4. Squats- Now we have trained our Chest and Back we will need to train our legs as well. Many of the athletes tend to skip their leg day but I will highly recommened everyone to train their legs once in a week. Squats will not train your entire legs but this is a great workout for your Quadriceps. If you have a dream of getting wider Quadriceps then this exercise is surely for you. To start, keep your back straight and your legs shoulder width apart. Now, bring yourself down in that position and then move yourself back up. You will start to feel the pressure in your Quads right from the beginning. Inhale while you come down and exhale while you move back up.

SET: 3 SETS OF 12, 10 AND 8 REPEPTITIONS.

5. Calf Raises- Now as we are training our legs, we have to train our calves without which our legs will be imcomplete. Calf Raises is one of the most effective workout in this regard. Infact being one of the most easiest workouts to perform Calf Raises stand out to be the most effective workout for legs along with Squats. To start, you need to go to a staircase and then keep both of your toes on one stair and the ankle one stair down. Now slowly lift your ankle till you are standing with with the help of your toes. At this point you will feel the pressure into your Calves. Inahle while you go down and exhale while you come up.

SET: 3 SETS OF 12, 10 AND 8 REPETITIONS.


In this article I have mentioned only the compound workouts which basically targets a bigger muscle group. In the next article I will mention the workouts that are disgned for Biceps, Triceps, Shoulders, etc. Till then try to perform these workouts and I am sure that it will help you in building a muscular physique at home.

Before starting we have to keep in mind that there are three main mechanisms of Muscle Growth: 1. Mechanical Tension. 2. Metabolic Stress. 3. Muscle Damage. Now, Mechanical Tension is something that gets maximized by using heavy compound movements such as Bench Press, Squats, Deadlift, etc. It gets maximized over time as one gets stronger and stronger.

Generally in Barbells, you can lift mor...
