If you think you need a pill to get into shape, think again.
Since diet pills may vary in their effectiveness and may be unsafe for use. You
can be fit with a consistent set of exercises on a weight bench. With the aid
of the force of gravity, you can strengthen your core muscle groups. Here are
five tips for workout with a weight bench:
1. Use milk jugs to replicate free weights if you do not
have one. Work your biceps and triceps on your weight bench with plastic milk
jugs which are emptied of milk and filled with water. Experiment with a
different kind of liquid has a different result.
2. Sit upright on the end of your weight bench with your
legs together so that your feet are flat on the floor. Keep a jug or free
weight in each hand and let your arms hang limp at your sides. Start with the
right hand, bring the milk jug on your chest, bend your arm at the elbow. Lower
your arm slowly to the starting position. Repeat with your left arm. Count one
repetition. Repeat this process until you complete 12-15 repetitions. Finish a
set. Complete three sets of arm curls before moving to the next exercise.
3. Strengthen your triceps by lying with your back flat on
the bench. Pull up your knees so your feet are flat on the end of the bench.
Grab a milk jug in each hand and hold them near your ears. With elbows bent,
straighten your arms so that the milk jugs directly extend above your
shoulders. Pull them slowly close to your ears. Count one repetition. Repeat
this step until you complete 12-15 repetitions. Finish a set. Complete three
sets of this before moving on to the next exercise.
4. Strengthen your legs by performing dumbbell lunges. Grab
a milk jug or free weight in each hand. Place your left leg on the couch while
bending and your knee directly above your left ankle. Step up, leaving all your
weight on your left foot. Slowly return your right leg back to the floor.
Repeat 12-15 times, then switch legs so that your right foot is up on the bench
and perform 12-15 right leg lunges. Finish a set. Complete three sets of lunges
before moving on to the next exercise.
5. Strengthen your abdominal muscles by performing flat leg
crunches on your weight bench. Sit on the bench so that your legs extend over
the end of the bench. Grasp the sides of the weight bench with your hands on
the bench and just above your hips. Lean back so that your elbows rest on the
couch. Push with your hands while pulling up your knees to your face. Make sure
you feel the tension in your abdominal muscles. Perform 12-15 reps and add a
set. Complete at least three sets.
