If you're the type of person who does not want to spend too much time in the gym to do exercises, or you do not want to spend too much on the services of a personal trainer to develop a training program for you, here are five types of exercises that you can do to make the muscles of your body work in harmony and produce a balanced athletic body shape.
# 1 Squat Squat exercise is becoming less fancied among many men as they are more focused on the upper body muscles and other muscles which are easily visible. Although the focal point of this exercise is on leg strength, it also serves to build core strength and body weight control. This means squat exercises entails full body workout. This exercise also significantly increase natural testosterone levels in your body so as to enhance the growth of new muscles, improve sexual performance as well as the hormonal balance in your body.
# 2 Push up Although it looks easy, push-up exercise requires solid core strength to keep your body straight during the exercise. It would be helpful if you already have the strength in the muscles of the abdomen, chest (pecs), triceps and shoulder muscles. Push up is not about how much movement you can do. What is important is maintaining slow and controlled movements as well as holding the body straight and parallel to the floor.
# 3 Dumbbell Clean and Press This one is a very effective exercise in the sculpting of the body because works on your whole body.
Grasp a pair of dumbbells with both hands, position the dumbbell slightly above the floor with the body in a squat-like position where the knees are bent approximately at 90 degrees, thighs parallel to the floor. Raise your body slowly while lifting a dumbbell upwards to align the shoulders, and then push the head upward. Keep holding your elbows, and knees should not be locked, then return to starting position.
# 4 Pull-up Pull-ups are one group exercise (compound) in which the first movement will work on several muscle groups. This exercise works on almost all muscle groups in the upper body, especially your back muscles outer part (latissimus dorsi) and bicep muscles. To do pull-ups, grab a bar with both hands facing forward (as opposed to your face). Your grip should be slightly wider than your shoulders. Lift your body with the shoulder going past the bar. Hang on a minute (pause) and then slowly lower your body.
# 5 Hanging Leg Raise This exercise is performed by hanging on a bar, then lifting your knees toward your chest. This exercise works on the lower abdomen muscles (lower abs). Do variations by rotating the knee to the left and right side when the position is already above the knee to develop the abdominal muscles side.
