Now, more than ever, people are turning tobodyweight exercises.
While there are benefits to doing these types of workouts, there are some points to keep in mind.
In particular, it can be easy to make mistakes.
You aren’t looking in a mirror at a fitness studio, studying your form.
You don’t have a personal trainer, instructing you what to do and when to do it.
It may seem like a bodyweight routine would be super easy, since itdoes not require any equipmentor machines.
In a plank, some may let their shoulders or hips drop down towards the floor.
Hips can drop in push-ups, too, and elbows can be too wide and high.
With any form of fitness, though, there are rules to follow and guidelines to keep in mind.
Warm up your body before moving.
Make your movements progressive, as you prepare your body for what is to come.
We also hope that if/when you opt for bodyweight-focused exercises that you remember these tips.
