hi everyone i'm kay johnson and i'm a my
0:02
protein pt and today we are going to
0:04
talk about if you can build muscle with
0:06
only body weight so no equipment no
0:08
machines just you or maybe some stuff
0:10
around the house like a chair or tins of
0:13
food let's get started
0:18
[Music]
0:19
the answer is yes if you use the
0:21
following principles increase reps
0:23
decrease press time perform variations
0:26
train to failure or increase time under
0:28
tension you will build muscle over time
0:31
i would say start to introduce these
0:32
changes if you feel your workouts are
0:34
getting easier or you haven't noticed
0:36
any changes to your body body weight
0:38
exercises are movements that only use
0:40
your body and your weight as a
0:42
resistance and the way you can build
0:44
muscle is increasing how challenging
0:46
these movements are with body weight
0:48
training you'll be able to gain muscle
0:49
by toning and becoming more defined but
0:52
you wouldn't be able to gain extreme
0:53
muscle like a bodybuilder as there is a
0:55
lack of progressive overload on your
0:57
muscle and you only have physical body
0:59
weight to work with if you can't afford
1:01
the gym or want a quick workout at home
1:03
and you don't have a lot of space to
1:04
complete this hit workout or a quick
1:06
bodyweight ab session is perfect this
1:08
kind of working out is suitable for all
1:10
levels of fitness if you're a complete
1:12
beginner and wanted to start your
1:13
fitness then body weight training is a
1:15
perfect starting point and will reduce
1:17
any injury but also if you're an
1:19
advanced trainer you can increase the
1:21
levels of intensity with the exercises
1:23
and really push yourselves to your
1:25
limits for example if you're a beginner
1:27
you can start with a half burpee and
1:29
then advance to a full chest to floor
1:31
burpee for beginners if you start to two
1:33
to three workouts per week around 30
1:35
minutes at a time and then build up to
1:38
around three to five workouts a week
1:40
increasing the time frame to around 45
1:42
minutes to one hour bodyweight training
1:44
is the cheaper option it costs nothing
1:46
to use your body as a resistance and you
1:48
just need a little bit of space anywhere
1:50
at home in the garden or at the gym or
1:53
even on holiday to perform these types
1:55
of training plus during lockdown 2020
1:58
most people didn't have access to the
1:59
gym and had to rely on bodyweight
2:01
workouts and of course sometimes you
2:03
might not even want to go to the gym so
2:05
here are some examples of household
2:06
items that you could use a dining room
2:08
chair or stool for tricep dips or
2:11
push-ups 1.5 litre bottle for squats and
2:14
detergent bottle for arnold press or
2:16
just get creative with anything you can
2:17
find in the house in summary as long as
2:20
over time you are increasing reps
2:22
decreasing rest time performing
2:24
variations and training to failure then
2:26
you will be able to build muscle so what
2:29
do you think are you going to try
2:30
detergent bottles or dining room chairs
2:32
to work out if you have any questions
2:34
