Many people have overlooked the power of bodyweight only workouts to increase fitness, improve health and build an attractive body. Bodyweight exercises and calisthenics have taken a back seat to weight lifting for too long. Let's take a look at what using the weight of your won body can do for you.

Bodyweight Training Helps You Perform, Feel And Look Better

We all know we should exercise more. Our daily lives have become so "easy" that our activity levels no longer "naturally" produce the circumstances for our body to perform, feel and look its best. Our body adapts to the environment it lives in, which in today's society often means walking around in a body that is overfat and undermuscled.

So, an easy way to crank up your activity level and create an environment that builds a better, stronger, more athletic body is to use bodyweight exercises and calisthenics. It is the most natural form of exercise and you can get started right now.

For Some People, Bodyweight Training Is Better Than Weight Lifting

I've talked to people that have lifted for years, but only started to reach their fitness, fat loss and physique building goals with bodyweight exercises. There was something missing in their weight training... bodyweight workouts. And once they added these natural movements, they instantly got results they could see, feel and use.

If you think about it, there are two types of movement that should be addressed in your workout program. The movement of your own body, and the movement of added resistance. Many people have been ignoring the training of moving their own body weight around. And once they fix this error, the benefits quickly become evident.

Bodyweight Training Empowers You

Look, most people think they need something to become fit, lean and muscular. The say they need a gym. Or they need a piece of equipment. They RELY on something exterior to themselves for their success. And this is very limiting.

The fact is, you don't "need" anything besides a functioning body and the desire to improve yourself. And when you realize YOU already have the power to make your fitness, fat loss and physique building goals a reality, it is empowering.

Don't limit yourselves... get what you want with what you have!

You may have worked out before, or are just starting out. But answer this question, "Have you used bodyweight workouts to their full power?" For most, the answer will be NO, and fixing this problem is your first step to creating the body that performs, feels and looks great!
