Back again this time with another vid and in this video you see me perform some dive-bomber push-ups. You might be wondering why I have this song with the video, lol I don't coincidence this song came on when I was performing the exercise. But yeah sorry guys it might not be guy approved, but lol Dive-bomber push-ups are awesome and fall into the category of using your body-weight into your programs. Here are some benefits of Body-weight training:
Benefits of Body-weight Training?
I love bodyweight training for a number of reasons, but I’ll just list the top 7 reasons why bodyweight training is so great:
1. Bodyweight workouts help you drop fat like magic. I usually organize bodyweight exercises into high intensity circuits, and they work better than steady state cardio. They work even better than interval cardio!
2. Gymnasts train with bodyweight workouts, exclusively. Yet they’re stronger than most bodybuilders. They have a nice, lean physique to compliment their athletic skills. This is because body control is an important aspect of overall fitness.
3. Bodyweight training doesn’t take long at all. You can train for as little as 10 minutes a day and burn fat in the comfort of your own home. Sometimes I’ll just drop down and do a few pushups while I’m working, just to get the blood flowing again.
4. Because the workouts are performed at such a high intensity level, you’ll effectively boost your metabolic rate. Your metabolic rate is what determines how many calories you burn at rest through out the day.
5. My aerobic conditioning is better than when I used to run 45 minutes a day, 5 days a week. When you perform bodyweight exercises at a high intensity level, you also train your heart. And so the low intensity of a jog or run does not tire your body out, no matter how long you do it.
6. The most important aspect, especially in this tough economy, is the fact that you can save a ton of money on expensive gym memberships or fancy equipment. We know by now that all those fancy gizmos do nothing for a sleek body.
7. Finally, have you ever seen the difference in physique between a sprinter and a jogger? High intensity exercise is the way to go for a nice, athletic physique. If you want to look like a scrawny jogger, then go ahead and continue your steady state cardio.
