It should enhance it in every aspect: give you more energy and keep you healthy in the long run. Save the time you spend going to the gym and use that extra time to do other meaningful things. With this book I want to give you my best advice on how to get fit at home with minimal equipment and use of time. Instead of just giving you training advice only, I will equip you with: • Training tool which you can use to plan and log your workouts and track your progress. All the programs presented in this book are pre-made to the tool so all you have to do is follow along and log your training sessions. • Rep calculator to estimate your progress and how many reps you could possibly do for the harder bodyweight exercises. • Calorie and macro calculator to estimate proper calories and macronutrients depending on your goal. • Meal planning tool and example meal plans that helps you to plan ahead some basic meals. • And also a weight tracking tool to track your bodyweight. • Cheat sheet including all the exercises and progressions with youtube links.

But I will also present alternatives if you don’t have some of the equipment available and also give you instructions on what household items you can use for exercise. Such as the kitchen counter, sturdy chairs and a dining table will get you going. And if you wish you can do weighted bodyweight exercises by simply using a weighted backpack. What's new compared to the first edition: • Updated training tool with some visual upgrades • New alternative exercises you can use for progression and some exercises were removed • Three approaches to get your first pullup • Ring training is included in the training tool for dips and push-ups for those who like to train with rings. Also progression to full ring dip with rings only if you don’t have parallel bars available. • Improved exercise and video library • More content. More detailed chapter on dieting for fat loss, muscle gain and maintaining. • About 50% more content compared to the previous version. • Updated units to support both lbs/kg and cm/inch units in the book.

After mastering this guide, you will understand the importance of having a balanced workout rotation as well as when it is best to use compound over isolation and vice versa.

| compound and isolation exercises: Physical Fitness and Wellness Reena Rani , 2021-05-17 A person who is fit is capable of living life to its fullest extent. Physical and mental fitness play very important roles in your lives and people who are both, physically and mentally fit are less prone to medical conditions as well. Fitness does not only refer to being physically fit, but also refers to a person’s mental state as well. If a person is physically fit, but mentally unwell or troubled, he or she will not be able to function optimally. Mental fitness can only be achieved if your body is functioning well. You can help relax your own mind and eliminate stresses by exercising regularly and eating right. People who are physically fit are also healthier, are able to maintain their most optimum weight, and are also not prone to cardiac and other health problems. In order to maintain a relaxed state of mind, a person should be physically active. A person who is fit both physically and mentally is strong enough to face the ups and downs of life, and is not affected by drastic changes if they take place. Becoming physically fit requires a change in life style as well. You will have to incorporate a regular exercise routine in your life and also eat healthier. By avoiding junk foods, fizzy drinks, bad habits like smoking and alcohol and by getting adequate amount of rest, you will be able to become physically and mentally fit. Just by eliminating all these food substances from your life, no matter how temporarily, you will allow your body to detox and become stronger. Make sure that you spend more time outdoors in the sun, and fresh air and take part in more healthy activities. Fishing, bicycling, swimming, hiking, and even playing foot ball with your kids should be a part of your physically fit lifestyle. |

Take a strategic approach to your workouts by using a proven system that trains strength through each joint’s true full range of motion.

| compound and isolation exercises: Massive Iron: The Rep Goal System Steve Shaw, 2014-07-01 This is not a book of magic secrets. Instead, it’s a book that boils away the nonsense, leaving you with the mechanisms that truly drive gains. This book presents my core training philosophies and principles, and the Rep Goal System. Future books will build off these principles, and show you many other workout programs and systems that will help you to build muscle and strength. Never waste a set. That is what this book is about. My lifting philosophy is simple: When you maximize every set, you maximize every workout. When you maximize every workout, you maximize progress. It doesn't get any easier than that, does it?

| compound and isolation exercises: Must Be On 'Roids Mathew James Barnett, 2013-02 Mathew James Barnett explained that his book is a light year away from when he first started using weights to increase his size and strength. He said there is twenty years of working out between his first workout and this book. He has a stack of books and magazines that all promised they had something to offer. He recalls following all the systems with none really standing out from the rest. Trial and error in the gym, lead him to the methods in his book. He stated that he knew he was onto something when he heard people asking those people around him, if he was using steroids. Eventually people also began to ask him directly. He stated that there were people in the gym's he used, who were using steroids. To his surprise, Mat recalled that people were starting to copy his methods, including the steroid users. He explained that people in the gym saw his results and saw that he did some things differently to what everyone was doing. Also, that it was easy for them to copy him. Mat explained the name of the book is from true events, but he agreed it's an odd name for a bodybuilding book. Mat stated that when people know his story, they'll agree there's only one name for his book. Mat said there isn't a person in the gym, anywhere in the world, that wouldn't benefit from following his humble little book. |

I have good news for you: Getting into awesome shape isn't nearly as complicated as the fitness industry wants you to believe. You don't need to spend hundreds of dollars per month on the worthless supplements that steroid freaks shill in advertisements. You don't need to constantly change up your exercise routines to confuse your muscles. You don't need to toil away in the gym for a couple of hours per day, doing tons of sets, supersets, drop sets, giant sets, etc. (As a matter of fact, this is a great way to stunt gains and get nowhere.) You don't need to grind out hours and hours of boring cardio to shed ugly belly fat and love handles and get a shredded six-pack. (How many flabby treadmillers have you come across over the years?) You don't need to obsess over eating clean to get ripped, and you don't need to completely abstain from cheat foods while getting down to single-digit body fat percentages. Those are just a few of the harmful lies and myths that keep guys from ever achieving the lean, muscular, strong, and healthy bodies they truly desire. And in this book you're going to learn something most guys will never know... The exact methods of diet and training that make putting on 10 to 15 pounds of quality lean mass a breeze...and it only takes a few months. In this book you’ll learn things like... How “flexible dieting” works and how you can use it to finally free yourself from the dietary prisons many people confine themselves to. A simple solution to “metabolic damage” that easily and painlessly speeds your metabolism back up to where it should be. The “deadly” training mistakes most people make once their “newbie gains” are spent and how to avoid this pitfall. The most effective exercises for building and strengthening every major muscle group in your body. A “paint by numbers” workout program that will force your body to get bigger and stronger. Why most “six pack” advice is completely wrong and what it really takes to get a lean, defined core. What type of cardio you should do to maximize fat lass, how much is enough, and how much is too much. A no-BS guide to supplements that will show you what works, what doesn’t, and what’s just outright fraudulent. And a whole lot more! Imagine...just a few weeks from now…finally seeing progress in the mirror and in the gym… Imagine enjoying the added benefits of high energy levels, no aches and pains, better spirits, and knowing that you're getting healthier every day... The bottom line is getting big, lean, and strong isn’t nearly as complicated as the fitness industry wants you to believe. This book makes it simple. Scroll up, download this free eBook now, and begin your journey to a more muscular, stronger, and healthier you! |
