Portable Home Gym

portable home gym
Paying high prices for a gym membership? Perhaps you like working out, but hate doing it in public? Exercising at home has many advantages, but it also requires having the right equipment in your home setup. Before you go out and buy any products to put in your home gym you should consider what might be the best option.

You should have a room you can dedicate mostly to the home workout station. It is better to put the equipment on a wood floor for stability, but if all you have is carpet make it work for you. Make sure you have the set up as stable as possible to avoid injury. A garage could work if you have one.

The most popular type of home gym is the multi- system in which you have an adjustable bench, stacked weights, pull down bars, press bars, leg extension options, leg curls, and a cable row. A multi- gym provides you with the ability to work the entire body with one machine. There are a plethora of these on the market. BowFlex is one of them.

During the exercise period you can work your shoulders, arms, back, legs, thigh muscles, hamstrings, and calf muscles. There are other options if you prefer running or portable machines.

Portable equipment includes such things as balls, steps, dumbbells, benches, mats, and abdominal machines. With portable options you can have everything listed or get what you prefer to work out with. In this section it all depends on what parts of the body you want to work out and how hard you want to work out. For instance, you could get a pull up bar and do push ups to work your shoulders, get a better grip, and your arms, then combine it with some of the smaller pieces in the list like dumbbells. Portable equipment for the gym can also be a treadmill, stair stepper, and other one piece machines that fold up and store under a bed.

Your current fitness level also needs to be factored in. Are you already in shape because you have used machines at a local gym? If your muscles have definition you can look for intermediate or upper skill level machines. A beginner would need light exercises combined with less weight on the equipment. It is always a good idea to have multi level weights in your overall system to help you increase the weight as you workout more.

Back Exercises at Home

back exercises at home
Lower back pain afflicts too many people, and one of the ways to alleviate it is to strengthen your core muscles – front and back.

Luckily, your abdominals are some of the easiest muscles to exercise. The results come from consistency in exercising and to continue to challenge yourself during each and every session. And doing back exercises at home is fairly easy with noticeable results in only after a few sessions.

Lower Back
Your lower back has two sets of muscles: one for the heavy lifting and one for stabilizing the part of your spine that carries all your weight.

In addition, weak abdominals affect your lower back’s strength. Therefore, many of the lower back exercises that you can do at home, are actually designed to work your lower abdominals.

I have three key exercises that you can do at home, they are: Toes To Sky, Knee-Up and Push-Up Hold (or Plank).

  • Toe To Sky requires you to lie on your back, legs at 90-degrees and to lift your pelvis as high as you can, while keeping your legs vertical; this works you Lower Rectus Abdominis Muscle.
  • Knee-Up also has you on your back and bend your hips and knees 90-degress, so your upper legs are parallel to the floor. Bring your knees to your chest, then lower/extend your legs… but don’t let your legs touch the floor when they’re fully extended.
  • The Push-Up Hold requires you to hold your body in the “up” Push-Up position, and to hold the position for 10 second. To really address and exercise your lower back, lift one leg, then the opposite arm, then do the others. You’ll feel a substantial burn in your lower back. See? Lower back exercises at home that are easy to do and effective.

Upper Back
The Upper Back is another story; the most potent upper back exercise is PULL-UPS, hands down this is best way to strengthen your upper back. It’s quite difficult to do at first, so you must stick with it to get the most out of it.

However, if you didn’t get the Pull-up/Chin-Up, you can use the Exercise Band for your upper back exercises; basically you’ll be doing Lat Pulldowns where you use the tension of the Exercise Band to work your lats. Wrap the band around your hands, raise your arms above your head, and pull down.

Make sure that you pull your shoulder blades in and down as you bring your elbows down in the same motion you would do if you were doing lat pull downs at the gym.

With the Exercise Band, you can also perform Bent-Over Rows, which is another great upper back exercise that hits your lats and your rhomboid muscle.

Working your back (upper and lower) is crucial to obtaining a sleek look in clothing, and we just discussed some quick and simple back-sculpting exercises that you can do at home.

To learn more tips and techniques on how to put together a home workout, check out Turbulence Training Program where you’ll find loads of information on how to more effectively exercise at home.

Leg Exercises at Home

How can I tighten my flabby inner thighs?

The thighs, in addition to the butt, are a fat collection area. But don't despair. The secret to thinner thighs is to stop obsessing about them and start using them. Four muscle groups comprise the thighs. The quadriceps (quads) are located at the front of your thighs; you use them to straighten your legs. You use your hamstrings, at the back of the thigh, to bend your leg. The abductors, the outer-thigh muscles, pull your legs sideways away from your body; and the adductors, the inner thigh muscles, pull your legs sideways back to your body.

The area that you mention, the inner thighs, is a particularly troublesome spot. Unless you play sports like basketball or tennis, which involve lots of side-to-side motion, these muscles get very little use. The result is that they lose their tone and become flabby. Fortunately, by cutting back on super-size portions and snacks, you can shed the excess fat. And with the simple exercises described below, which target the inner thighs as well as the surrounding muscles, you can firm these muscles for toned, sleek legs.

Do two sets of 10 to 12 reps on each leg (unless otherwise indicated), two or three times a week. Leave a day of rest between workouts.

Inner-Thigh Lift

  1. Lie on your right side, supporting your head on your hand. (If this position bothers your neck, fold your arm down and rest your head on it.) Bend your left leg, placing your foot flat on the floor. Your right leg is extended and slightly forward.
  2. Using your inner thigh muscles, lift your right leg toward the ceiling at least 6 inches. Hold, and then slowly lower. Repeat on the other side.

Seated Leg Raise

  1. Sit on a sturdy chair. Rest your feet on the floor with your knees bent 90 degrees. Rest your hands on the chair at your sides.
  2. Exhale as you lift and extend your right leg. Hold for 30 seconds as you breathe normally. Then inhale as you lower your right leg and exhale as you repeat with your left leg. Hold for 30 seconds while breathing normally.

Single-Leg Squat
Standing with your feet together and arms by your sides, shift your weight onto your right foot. Rest the toe of your left foot next to your right foot for balance. Keeping your back straight, bend at your hips and knees, and slowly sit back onto your right leg, raising your arms straight in front of you as you lower (hold onto the back of a chair for balance, if you need to). Stop when your thighs are almost parallel to the floor, and hold for a second. Then press into your right foot through the heel and stand back up.

Seated Pillow Squeeze
Sit on a sturdy chair. Rest your feet on the floor with your knees bent 90 degrees. Place a pillow between your thighs. Exhale as you squeeze the pillow between your thighs, as if you were trying to squeeze the stuffing out of the pillow. Hold for 1 minute as you breathe normally. Rest 30 seconds to 1 minute between sets.
