Can’t Make it to the Gym Today?

Posted by Dan on February 12th 2007 to Training

Some days things go crazy, and no matter how hard you might try, you just aren’t going to be able to make it to the gym. Maybe you slept in, maybe you have a kid’s concert to go to, either way it would be rather selfish of you to just skip out on other responsibilities and go to the gym. So its time to adjust and do some basic workouts at home maybe just before bed or whenever you can work them in (you might not even have to change!). Here are some ideas:

Do some pushups! Do variations, but get some in.

Lunges! These can even be done without weights, just hold the position longer.

Crunches! You just need a floor to do these anyway!

Concentration Exercises! An example would be to grab a chair (or small child), and hold them in a curl movement (about 90 degrees) for as long as you can. Resist dropping the chair (or kid) for as long as you can and feel the burn!

Of course, there are more ideas than this that you could do, but don’t make excuses, come up with an alternative.
