Workouts to do at the Gym

Workouts to do at the Gym

Basically not all gym goers have the same mentality why they go to the gym. Most people are trying get something thus they go to the gym for some couple of days. But after experiencing some fatigues, mostly, some would quit right then and there. I gathered some questions on some of the people I know that goes to the gym. They have these questions and are often didn't hear any answers in return. See below questions:

-What are some light exercises that I can perform in the gym when I'm lacking energy but still would want to get some cardio exercises?
-What are some exercises i should do to have my stomach and legs get toned from the gym. Are there any particular foods that I should take to help me toned while working out?
-How do I lose weight around my hips, stomach and other parts of my body in less than 8 weeks?

Well, I have this plan and for sure you will also love it. I myself is 100% sure that this workout will work. Why? Because, I myself already tried this, and not only me, my friend also have tried this workout and I am very greatful for the outcome. Don't in yet, you still need some time to do it. So, what are you waiting for?

Here's the thing that you need to do, if you want to tone and have your legs tighten, if you want to have that flabby hips shrink to a normal sexy size and that bubbling stomach to get flatten. All you need to do is follow this simply exercises or workout guide, and surely, you will be amazed with the results.

Please be reminded also that you only need to have a 45seconds interval in between exercises to achieve that goal. And by the way, before i forgot, you must follow a well balanced meal plan for a faster result.

Workouts to do at the Gym: High Knee Drill warm up exercise- do this for 4-6 minutes.
On this workout, you need to do the following:
-Stand constantly in place having feet hip width apart. Then, drive knee up towards chest and quickly place the foot back on the ground. After that, drive the other knee up in a moderate to fast jog with minimal ground contact time.

It's just a warm up exercise, thus it will not take that long. Next exercises is:

Workouts to do at the Gym: Squat Jump 3 sets of 12 reps
-Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, trunk flexed forward slightly with back straight in a neutral position. And then,  arms should be in a “ready” position with your elbows flexed at about 90°. Then, lower body where thighs are parallel to ground. After that, explode vertically and drive arms up. Land on both feet and repeat. Lastly, prior to takeoff extend the ankles to their maximum range (full plantar flexion) to ensure proper mechanics.

Workouts to do at the Gym: Boxing 2-3 sets of 45-60 seconds
-Start by fitting yourself with the proper sized gloves. Then, next you want to hit the bag with a variety of movements. Let say for example a left jab with a right cross, body punches, right cross only. then, proceed to hit the bag for the required time or however your cardiovascular program is designed. I also include this one on my shadow boxing workout.

Workouts to do at the Gym: Lateral Lunge on Box 3-4 sets of 12 repetitions
-To do this: Position yourself with feet hip width apart. Place hands on waist or out to sides for stability. Next, step laterally 2-3 feet and place foot onto a box 12-24” high. Bend knee into a lunge. Then, pushing off foot, return to start position. Continue with same leg or alternate as prescribed. Lastly, remember to keep head and back upright in a neutral position. Shoulders and hips should remain squared at all times.

Workouts to do at the Gym: Burpees 3 sets of 10-12 repetitions
-You begin in a standing position, jump as high as possible and land down on your feet with your hands on the ground. Then, kick your feet back. Then, for a moment you will be in a push up position and jump back up again as fast as possible.

Workouts to do at the Gym: Hamstring Curl 3 sets of 12-15 repetitions
-To do this: Assume back lying position on floor. Place hands at sides with palms down on floor. Then, start position: Place heels of both feet on top of stability ball. Raise hips off floor. Then curl heels toward glutes by flexing at the knee. Hips should remain off floor.
Return to start position. Then lastly, remember to maintain stability of ball by utilizing muscles in the trunk and core. To increase difficulty, cross arms hands over chest to take away base of support.

Workouts to do at the Gym: Plank 3 sets of 45 seconds
-Do this: Start by placing your forearms on the ground and forming a plank with your forearms and feet. Then, hold this position keeping your body parallel to the ground for the required time.

The last workout would be:
Workouts to do at the Gym: Side Plank 3 sets of 45 seconds
-Start by: Laying on the ground on one side. Raise your body using one forearm and support it in this raised position for the required time.
Lower your body and repeat on the other side. Then, remember to keep your head, neck and body in a straight line.
