Bodyweight Training

No equipment? No problem!

Bodyweight training is an incredibly effective and versatile way to build strength, improve mobility and boost your cardiovascular fitness, without the need for heavy weights or expensive machines.

With bodyweight training, you can easily fit in a workout anytime, anywhere - whether you're at home, in the park, or on the road.

Bodyweight training is more than simply convenient, though. The very nature of using your own body as resistance while moving through different positions and planes of movement means that you are constantly working on improving your balance, coordination and global movement quality.

When executed correctly, bodyweight exercises engage multiple muscle groups simultaneously, providing a full-body workout that can be adjusted to any fitness level.

By changing parameters like tempo and work to rest ratios, or through employing static holds in challenging positions, bodyweight workouts can be easily modified to increase intensity as you progress. This ensures that you can continue to challenge your strength and fitness while avoiding plateaus.

WIth those in the northern hemisphere getting ready for summer holidays, it’s the perfect time to embrace the simplicity and effectiveness of bodyweight training. And for those in the southern hemisphere, doing a bodyweight workout at home is a very convenient alternative to going to the gym on a cold and rainy winter’s evening!
