The HOTEL GYM Workout – Don’t Leave Muscle Building At Home!

Monday, September 13th, 2010

http://athleanx.com Trying to get a workout in at a hotel gym can be quite the challenge. Usually travelers will just leave their muscle building efforts at home figuring that they just won’t be able to get a good workout in at the hotel gym. Not so. But, you’ve got to know WHAT to do while you’re there.

Simply relying on the machines and exercises that they’re expecting you to do at the hotel gym is a recipe for disaster. You’ve got to understand that there are so many more options.

For instance, have you ever walked into a hotel gym and seen that the rack of dumbbells only has 5 pound dumbbells up to say 50 lb dumbbells, or even worse…35 lb dumbbells? What are you supposed to do if you’re looking to workout with heavier weights?

Plenty. You can vary the rep speed that you’re working out at, you can decrease the rest time between sets, or you can even perform compound sets…all ways to increase the intensity of the workout.

Let celebrity trainer Jeff Cavaliere show you straight from his AthLEAN-X Training System how he puts his athlean x workouts to the “road test” and proves that you can still get a great workout and great results even while traveling on the road.

When you’re done watching, make sure you head over to http://athleanx.com to grab your own copy of the training system that is changing the way that busy guys are working out. Get the AthLEANX Training System today.

Killer Home Chest Workout

Saturday, August 7th, 2010

Here is a great chest workout you can do at home with a cheap dumbbell set. Big gyms are nice but when you can get a killer workout at home without the overhead of getting to and from the gym. In this chest workout we are going to do pushups, then with no rest immediately do flys, then with no rest immediately do dumbbell press. Make sure and use a much lighter weight than you usually would on the flys and dumbbell press because after the pushups you wont have much left in you. After doing this set of three exercises, wait 2-5 minutes and do it again. Do 5-8 sets like this and you will be sore the next day.

As with all dumbbell exercises, form is key if you want to maximize your muscle building efforts and minimize the chance of injury. Don’t use too much weight, if you can’t do the exercise slowly then you need to go lighter. Count aloud “one onethousand, two onethousand, three onethousand” on the way up and the way down, if you cant do this on this exercise then you are using too much weight. The reason this exercise method maximizes your muscle growth is because it confines the motion to the muscle you are trying to work out, if your body squirms, swings, and kicks, all you are doing is taking the focus away from the muscle you are trying to exercise.

Anyone can be healthier, have more energy, sleep better, and feel better about themselves through bodybuilding. Bodybuilding doesn’t have to be expensive or take a lot of time, gyms are great but home workouts can save you time and money. A cheap dumbbell set from a garage sale or walmart is all it takes to get started with your home workouts.

Chest Workout: Dumbbell Flys

Friday, July 2nd, 2010

How do you get a massive chest? Most bodybuilders say “do lots of heavy bench press” – I disagree. There are two types of chest exercises, pushing exercisees (like bench press and pushups) and squeezing exercises (like pec deck and dumbbell flys). You need to do both to maximize your chest development. For me personally, the squeezing chest exercises have given me much better mass and strength gains than the pushing type exerciess.

The king of the squeezing exercises is the dumbbell fly and its easy to do at home with just a used set of dumbbells. Heres how you do it.:

lay on floor
together)
knees up, abs flexed (lower back support)
shoulder back, shoulder blades together
arms perpendicular to sides
elbows slightly bent
go sloooooly up and slooooowly down
flex you chest at top of rep

Warning straight armed is much more difficlut than elbows bent because of leverage. Decrease your weight till you can do these with your arms almost straight. Many times you will see people doing WAY more than they should and they do them like this (demo). No, use less weight. Why? Because then you can spot yourself. At about rep 6 when you cant do another straight armed one, bend your elbows slightly. This increases your leverage and makes it easier on your pecs, now you can do 2 or 3 more. When you cant do any more reps, bend your elbows a bit more. This way, you can do forced reps safely.

The reason I do this on the floor is for safety, please see this video for more info:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vkuPpbDgVzQ

This video is in preparartion for my advanced killer chest workout video where dumbbell flys will have a prominent role.

Anyone can be healthier, have more energy, sleep better, and feel better about themselves through bodybuilding. Bodybuilding doesn’t have to be expensive or take a lot of time, gyms are great but home workouts can save you time and money. A cheap dumbbell set from a garage sale or walmart is all it takes to get started with your home workouts.

Advanced Killer Home Chest Workout

Monday, June 14th, 2010

Here is an advanced chest workout you can do at home with a cheap dumbbell set. Big gyms are nice but when you can get a killer workout at home without the overhead of getting to and from the gym. This workout is a complete 70 minute workout and consists of four supersets.

superset 1: incline dumbbell press and flys
superset 2: dumbbell press from the hip and thumbs up flys
superset 3: incline flys and ultrawide pushups
superset 4: pushups, flys, and dumbbell press

We will do each superset three times and take 2-3 minutes rest between. Use a weight that lets you do 5-7 reps with good form. This is an intense workout and this is not meant to be used every week, just do this workout now and then to shake things up.

By the way, I’m not a very original or creative person, I get all the ideas for my mock-infomercials from real-life ads – isnt that scary? I just assemble them in a way so that its clear how ridiculous the claims are. There are people, who shall remain nameless, who comment on my vids and claim results as ridiculous as PecFuel5000 – I’m sure these people are just acting as sales people for these scam companies. Remember, be a critical thinker. Never believe those anecdotal “amazing” results stories at the gym, in magazines, or on the internet. … and remember, your Grandma was always right. If it SOUNDS too good to be true, then it IS. Dont be a sucker. Demand real evidence before buying any fitness product/supplement/program. If it is as great as they say then there will be a published ,peer-reviewed article in a respectable publication about a double blind study with a large sample size proving how great it is. Be wary of those “research studies” paid for by the company itself that “proves” how effective their product is.

As with all dumbbell exercises, form is key if you want to maximize your muscle building efforts and minimize the chance of injury. Don’t use too much weight, if you can’t do the exercise slowly then you need to go lighter. Count aloud “one onethousand, two onethousand, three onethousand” on the way up and the way down, if you cant do this on this exercise then you are using too much weight. The reason this exercise method maximizes your muscle growth is because it confines the motion to the muscle you are trying to work out, if your body squirms, swings, and kicks, all you are doing is taking the focus away from the muscle you are trying to exercise.
