How to do Plyometric Work out

Some people don’t mind working out in a gym. Others might rather get exercise in the comfort in their own home. Don’t have any weights at home? Are you tired of going to the gym? Well, here is a great plyometric work out to get in shape. This will help you stay fit and sculpted. Forget about buying unnecessary gym machines and weight sets; start using your body weight to improve your health.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Dedication
• Discipline

1. First, do some stretches before performing your exercises. It wouldn’t be any fun pulling a muscle trying to get in shape. Stretch for at least 5 to 10 minutes before working out. Start off by jogging in place for 2 minutes to get your heart rate up.

2. Next, do the exercises. Perform 25 push-ups, 30 crunches, and 3 squats and complete all the exercises without resting. This counts as one rep. After completing one rep, rest for at least 20 seconds. Count to yourself 1 Mississippi, 2 Mississippi, and so on to 20 while breathing. Do at least 4 reps.

3. Afterward, stretch after completing the work out. This is so you don’t become inflexible. If you stretch after working out you stay limber and mobile with your muscles.

4. At last, meditate for 5 minutes. Relax to cool down and slow your heart rate. Your heart rate is beating fast after working out so take time to loosen up.

Tips & Warnings

• Try different style of push-ups for each set to strengthen your arms more.
• As a replacement for crunches, to make the work out more difficult perform sit ups
• Instead of regular squats to make the exercise hard do squat jumps
• Set up a schedule to know when to work out
• Always do stretches, rather be safe than sorry.
