It is great to see so many people making a real effort to complete strength training exercises in their own homes during the Coronavirus pandemic. Many fitness equipment manufacturers are completely out of stock of equipment as they have been overwhelmed by a sudden rush of people looking to get equipment to use at home. If this happened in the 90's I doubt there would be anything like this which indicates people are more educated as to the benefits of exercise and in particular strength training. While it is great to see so many people making the effort to workout at home, lack of knowledge about how to choose exercises and structure the appropriate method will see many people simply make things up. As much as people are educated about the value of strength training, there is a real lack of knowledge about how to structure a workout that keeps your body in balance and caters to your specific needs. Unfortunately there will be many people in months to come who develop chronic injuries from poorly designed workouts that destroy joint stability, created muscle imbalances, postural problems, and movement dysfunction. To help you avoid being one of these people I have put together a very simple 8 step process for you to follow that shows you all you need to know for creating a great home workout specific to you.

How To Create Your Home Workout

Normally this article would include a ton of information with videos and pictures to help you fully grasp the concept of what I want to explain. This time I wanted to really simplify my message and give you some very simple visual images that you could use instantly without having to digest too much information. If you require more detailed articles to help you complete each step I suggest to check out our INDEX PAGE. This has over 200 of our best articles all sorted for you in specific categories for easy reference.

Some people may think I am over-thinking exercise and that I just want to make it more complicated. Many think exercise is just about getting sweaty and it does not matter what you do as long as you burn some calories. I wish it was that easy and they were right as it would save me a lot of trouble. Unfortunately exercise can be a real problem if it is not prescribed wisely and I know this for my main job is helping people recover from injury with most of these caused by their own training. As much as the public is more educated about the benefits of exercise there is a significant lack of knowledge as to how to use it correctly.
