• Save time & money<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

  With that said, there are 3 BIG myths about bodyweight workouts that just won’t die.<\/p>\n

  MYTH #1: <\/strong>BODYWEIGHT WORKOUTS ARE AN EASY OPTION<\/h3>\n

  <\/a>Bodyweight workouts done properly hurt. They\u2019re brutal.<\/p>\n

  Don\u2019t believe me? Ask yourself, why do the military and Special Forces rely on bodyweight conditioning to knock recruits into shape?<\/p>\n

  Just think about it.<\/p>\n

  In real life combat situations muscles aren\u2019t isolated\u2026 you use your whole body to run, duck, cover and get yourself into life-saving, combat-ready positions.<\/p>\n

  At the heart of military-style conditioning is the need for a high strength-to-weight ratio. This is developed through mastering the core bodyweight moves, including squats, pull ups and push ups.<\/p>\n

  Going back to basics isn\u2019t a step backwards.<\/p>\n

  It\u2019s proof you\u2019re a master at full body conditioning.<\/p>\n

  MYTH #2: <\/strong>YOU CAN\u2019T PACK ON MUSCLE USING BODYWEIGHT WORKOUTS<\/h3>\n

  <\/a>Just because you\u2019re not lugging weights around the gym doesn\u2019t mean you\u2019re not tough.<\/p>\n

  The reason there\u2019s a perception that you can\u2019t pack on muscle through bodyweight workouts is a lack of understanding. You see, you need to understand how to choose the right progressions to increase your strength.<\/p>\n

  As long as there is tension on the muscle you can grow. Your muscle does not know if the resistance is an external weight or your own body.<\/p>\n

  Oh, and did I mention that it can be really tough.<\/p>\n

  MYTH #3: <\/strong>BODYWEIGHT EXERCISES THAT REALLY WORK ARE TOO DIFFICULT TO MASTER<\/h3>\n

  <\/a>Go on Youtube and you\u2019ll find a ton of \u201csupermen\u201d showing off their bodyweight moves. Yes, these look impressive but don\u2019t be fooled.<\/p>\n

  You don\u2019t need to focus on super-advanced complex moves to chisel a strong foundation of functional strength.<\/p>\n

  You just need to do the right moves with the correct form with the right progressions.<\/p>\n

  Every bodyweight master started from the same point: working on the foundational moves which make up 90% of the strength types.<\/p>\n

  Only by focusing on the core moves which target each of the Four Strength Types will you really develop powerful \u201ctrue strength\u201d.<\/p>\n

  And the good news is these are simple and easy to master, as long as you choose the right training like the workout on the next page.<\/a><\/u><\/p>\n
