How To Pick a Workout Program
There are three main types of exercise systems you can select from to enhance your fitness objectives and each has its advantages. You can go to health club set up exercise gear in your garage, basement or spare room or use body-only exercise. We'll provide a quick scan of each to get you started on choosing which type most accurately fits your exercise situation.
The Gymnasium
The club gives you the benefit of having a wide range of equipment, classes, and recreational exercise activities available. This is generally a good choice for the individual who might not be so self-motivated and can gain benefit from a community to work out with on an everyday basis. In spite of the undeniable fact that more people are working out at home, the health centers remain very popular.
Workout Equipment
Another great option is to buy an all-in-one exercise machine you can set up in your house. You don't have to drive anywhere and you will have all that you need to get a full workout program going in the comfort of your home. Exercise equipment always includes video directions and step by step workout programs you can follow.
One very popular all-in-one machine is the Bowflex, which uses resistance bows in place of weights. It's handier to work with in the home than a conventional weight machine and can be stored in a small space, for example under a bed.
The Total Gym, which you might have seen publicized on Tv by Chuck Norris and Christie Brinkley, is also highly regarded right now. It isn't as pricey as the Bowflex, and the Total Gym uses gravity and resistance instead of weights.
Body-Only Exercise
My two favorite body-only exercise routines are the Insanity Workout with Shaun T. and the Body Gospel Workout. The Body Gospel is geared to Christians and is a first of it's type to mix Christian beliefs with a workout routine. The Insanity Workout is a seven week program that's sure to change your body if you stick with it and give it your all. I've done the Insanity and it does indeed work.
The advantages of these body-only workouts is that they are quite a bit less costly than a gym membership or a piece of exercise equipment, they take up only a small amount of space in your place, there's nothing to store or move around and I find it more likely to be incentivized to do them, even after the newness wears off. It's very easy. You only need to start the DVD and follow along. And even better, these can give you a trim, fit and muscled body just as the health club or an all-in-one machine can.
Now you just need to do it!
