WHY HOME BASED EXERCISE PROGRAM MORE ECONOMICAL THAN THE REGULAR GYM










If you think that physical fitness can only be achieved in a regular gym workout and by taking body supplements and vitamins could help do the trick, I suppose the notion is totally wrong because anywhere in your house is practically more than good to perform any exercise that suit your workout program. To begin with, I want to share my personal suggestions & exercise program which is part of my daily regimen of maintaining a healthy lifestyle and of slowing down the ageing process without spending much money in a regular gym.

IMPROVISED TOOLS OR EQUIPMENTS
Buying expensive high-end tools or equipments is not an option because you can improvise your own by using recycled materials like empty cans filled with cement for dumbbell; industrial container or bucket filled with water as alternative for barbell/dumbbell; a chair and stool made of wood or any material that can withstand your body weight; a welded iron bars/Dips stand for upper body exercise and last but not the least a Chin Up Bar or Pull Up Exercise which can be placed either inside or outside of the house.

SIMPLE AND EFFECTIVE EXERCISE PROGRAM
Upper body exercise (chest)
Use a strong built chair placed right beside a wall to firmly hold your weights as you perform dumbbell fly, dumbbell curl & dumbbell press in inclined position. Other than the common push-up exercise, you can use stool made of wood for a better chest exercise in push-up position. You can also use bender for more chest muscle.

Bicep, shoulder, posterior, lateral exercise
For arms exercise you can use bucket or industrial container for added muscle firmness not only for the biceps but also the forearms. The bucket or container is also good in muscle build-up for shoulder, posterior/back and the lateral part of the body. Chin-Up Bar or Pull-Up exercise is more than good in building upper body muscles & strength.

Triceps, chest-lift, dips
The welded iron bars or Dips stand is more on building triceps and chest-lift (preventing chest from sagging or the so called “woman’s breast form” in body building parlance). And of course for cardio & stamina, jogging is the best exercise that you can do for a total healthy body.

NATURAL FOOD FOR MUSCLE BUILDER, STRENGTH, GOOD HEALTH
No need to buy expensive vitamins and supplements. Sweet potato, tofu, banana and other fruits & vegetables available in the market will help you realized a chiseled and healthy body.
