So for those of you that don't have access to a gym, are you getting the most from your training?
In my opinion I would say it doesn't matter as long s you are pushing yourself quite hard. There are so many variations on pushups that can work your upper body muscles. So many variations of abdominal work and leg work. Once the static bodywork stops challenging you, you can start to make it more dynamic. Add more movement, but controlled movement into your programme.
Try taking less time between breaks, or doing more reps and sets to complete a higher volume. You can add things like rucksacks or weight vests, or make your own sandbags and attach them to your body. You can buy some equipment for your home, dumb-bells or kettlebells are the most cost effective for versatility I have found. Increase your range of motion in all exercises. You can try isometric or superslow training. Circuit training instead of sets, or vice versa.
You can also train like this in the gym, but there is no reason why you cannot train like this in an incredibly small space. If you have a bed in your room and you can place it on its side or upend it without causing too much problems, you have more than enough space.
Challenge yourself to adapt your whole body and recognise which muscles are firing and when. This solid foundation will help you in all activities, not only sports based.
Keep Training Hard Guys!
