In this video I will be going over the top five exercises for beginners that will help you to never plateau. This isn’t for people who have never worked out before. If this is you, master the basics first (push ups, pull ups, dips, etc). Build a good foundation and then move on to this.
The first exercise is the half muscle up. This is a complete upper-body movement. We are mainly focusing on the technique here and making sure we maintain proper form throughout the entire exercise. You will want to find two dip bars for this, although you might could get away with using two chairs. Place your hands towards the end where the bar starts to curve downward. Keep your thumb wrapped around the bar. Bring your feet down so that you can use them for assistance. Pull as much as you can while slightly pushing off with your legs, and then go into a dip.
Next exercise is a single leg squat. Find a bench that is at a comfortable height for you. The higher it is, the easier it will be. In order to ensure good form, do not look down at your feet. This will cause you to round your back and neck. Be sure not to let your knee rotate inward. Keep the pressure in the middle of your foot and push your knee out. Try to use the bench as little as possible.
The third exercise is practice planche push ups. Go into a push up position, retract and depress your scapula, keep everything tight and straight, and lean forward. Hold this position for a few seconds. This will work your upper chest and anterior delts a lot. Rotate your wrists outwards if you feel any pain.
Now we will move on to forearm swings. Try to find a thicker bar and squeeze with your pinky and thumb. Swing back and forth while stabilizing in your core. Be sure to push and pull using your wrists. Hold this for time and you will see incredible results in your forearms and grip strength.
The final exercise we will be performing ab rotators. Lay down on your back and keep your knees as far out as possible. This is a core strengthening movement. Tuck your legs in, keep your lower back on the ground, then rotate your entire body around in a circle. To make it harder, put your hands behind your head and extend your legs further out.
As a bonus I will show you how to do multi plane romanian dead lifts. We will be focusing on one leg at a time, which works your gluten and hamstrings. Go down to the left, middle, and right. Don’t let your other leg touch the ground.
These are incredible exercises to start adding in to your routine. Follow me tips and watch your body transform each day! If you like this style of training, check out our Body Evo Program here – 0
