Many of us would like to lead a healthier lifestyle and exercise, but lack motivation and energy. If you consider yourself to be in the “laziest” category, then this article is for you. I offer several simple exercises that can be performed at home without special equipment or spending a lot of time.
-
Squats. Stand straight, feet shoulder-width apart, arms extended forward. Squat down slowly as if you were about to sit on a chair, but do not touch the seat. Return to the starting position. Repeat 10-15 times. This exercise will strengthen the muscles of your legs and buttocks.
-
Plank. Rest your elbows and forearms on the floor, straighten your legs and torso. Hold this position for 10-20 seconds. The plank will strengthen your abdominal and back muscles.
-
Bridge. Lie on your back, bend your knees, place your feet on the floor shoulder-width apart. Using your legs and shoulders, lift your pelvis as high as possible. Stay in this position for 5-10 seconds. This exercise stretches the back muscles and improves flexibility.
-
Lunges. Stand straight with your feet together. Take a step forward with your right leg and squat down on it, straighten your left leg back. Return to the starting position. Repeat 10-15 times for each leg. Such lunges train the muscles of the thighs and buttocks.
-
Push ups. Place your palms on the floor shoulder-width apart and straighten your body. Bend your elbows and lower your chest towards the floor. Straighten your arms and lift your torso. Do 10-15 push-ups. This exercise will strengthen the muscles of your arms, shoulders and chest.
Here are 5 simple exercises that you can do at home in just 10-15 minutes. To begin with, it is enough to do 1-2 approaches. Over time, you can increase the number of repetitions. The main thing is to start and make exercise a habit. Good luck!
