As you may know im a believer of getting out of the gym every now and then and having a good workout out of the boring gym enviroment!This can really kick start your motovation and enthusiasm again for your workouts.
So heres 2 more training ideas ;-
Body Weight Workouts -
These are great ways to workout. There really build on your core strength. Body weight workouts can also be done anywhere as all you need with you is your body (your not exactly going to forget that!)
To get a really intense workout try exercising continuously for 30-45 minutes without too much rest or none at all. Try doing one or two workouts a week of just body weight workouts and your feel the difference.
So you want to focus on squats, push-ups variations, lunges, floor abs exercises, tricep dips etc. If your a little more advanced you could also try handstand push-ups, one arm pushups, one legged squats which will really challenge you!
Ring Training -
This type of training incorporates the use of portable gymnastic rings that you can take anywhere. You basically throw the straps over any high bar like a pull-up bar, the top of a power rack, or football goal crossbars are great.
Once you have adjusted the rings you can start doing exercises like ring dips, ring pushups, ring pull-ups, hanging leg raises, horizontal body rows, L-sits and more.
Doing dips and push-ups on the rings will really make them a lot more difficult, whilst also working your stabilizer muscles to a much greater degree. Using the rings allow your joints to move in a more natural pattern and will help prevent shoulder injury.
Try these 2 techniques out and see the difference they can make to your usuall routine. They should encourage your muscle building efforts in a very positive way.
