5 “Anytime, Anywhere” Exercises that’ll Keep You Lean, Toned and Strong!

From time to time, it’s always a good idea to change things up with your workouts.

This prevents your body from adapting and getting used to the same workout that’s done over and over.

That’s why today I’d like to give you 5 exercises you can use to change things up a bit… and keep your body from guessing what you’ll do next.

These exercises can be done anywhere, since they’re bodyweight exercises. Mix and match them between your normal workouts for best results.

Here they are:

Pushup: This old classic is effective since it involves your chest, triceps and shoulders (deltoids). Do 3 sets of 10-20 reps. If you have trouble doing a regular pushup, try a knee (modified) pushup. Do this by placing both your knees on the floor, while keeping the rest of your upper body in the pushup position. If you struggle on bench press, try pushups only for about four weeks. Then go back to benching again. You’ll be pleasantly surprised when you do!

Triceps pushups: Same as above, except bring your hands closer together. Your thumbs should be nearly touching. Now do a pushup from this starting position.  Do them on your knees if necessary.  This will help tone your triceps (the bottom of your arm) and help you get rid of the “jiggly” arm fat many people can’t stand.

Jump Squats: Start in a squatting position with feet, shoulder-width apart. Jump as hard as you can, at the same time extending your arms towards the ceiling OR you can squat and explode up allowing the ball of your foot to stay put and your heels only to leave the floor like you’re on your “tippy toes” if you have knee issues and shouldn’t have impact.  This will help you burn fat like crazy, since this exercise will have you huffin’ and puffin’, burning calories left and right.

Prisoner Squats: Start by clasping your hands behind your head, and try to keep your elbows at a 180 degree angle (push them back, towards your head.) Now, with your feet shoulder-width apart, squat down and then come back up. Repeat 20-30 times.

Plank: Get into a pushup position. Now, let your arms rest on the floor, while still holding yourself up. Hold this position for a count of 30. Repeat 5-10 times.  You can do this on your knees as well if toes if too tough but remember to keep your butt down so there’s a straight line from your knee to your hip then your shouder.

Well, there you have it. Five easy-to-do exercises you can do from anywhere, at anytime!
