A Few Useful Examples for Getting in Shape With The Street Workout Technique
Of course, we all have an idea of how to achieve the desired shape and the appropriate results.. But we also very often look for excuses such as “the gym is far away, I don’t have the right equipment, I don’t have time” and the like. However, we forget that we have a natural training room at our disposal, which is right there, in front of us. In other words, let’s go out to a park or forest, which is full of various obstacles, trees, benches or rocks. So, let’s look at some useful examples for getting in shape, with the street workout technique.
1. Sitting against a tree or a wall
Lean against the wall with your back straight and lower yourself down until your thighs are parallel to the floor and your knees are at right angles. Extend your arms by your body. Try to stay in this position for at least 30 seconds.
In this way, you maximally activate the saddle muscles, as well as the musculature of the upper leg.
2. Mountaineering
Rest your hands on a bench or a large stone. Your back remains straight. With strong movements, alternately lift one leg, then the other, in the direction of the chest. The other leg remains extended.
With this exercise, you train the muscles of the buttocks, quadriceps, as well as the abdominal and back muscles –
3. Squats
Your feet are shoulder width apart. You go back with your butt, while your upper body is upright. Then, straighten your pelvis again. Of course, make sure that your knees are always behind your toes and don’t move.
4. Decline for triceps
To perform this exercise, you need support at knee height. For example, it can be a bench. Rest both arms back on the bench with elbows slightly bent. Shift the weight of your legs to your heels. Slowly bend your arms and lower your body until your elbows reach a right angle.
It is clear that the exercise is ideal for the muscles of the upper arm, that is, the triceps.
5. A lunge with a shot
Stand straight, feet hip-width apart. Then, take a big step back with one leg and inhale. The lower leg and upper leg of the front leg should form a 90-degree angle. Exhale, stretch the back leg forward. Change the leg.
6. Raising the knees
Look for a hanging handhold (bar, beam…). Take a hanging position, without swaying. Raise your legs as high as possible and exhale. Repeat the exercise several times.
The exercise aims to strengthen the lower abdominal muscles.
7. Walking lunge
Bring your feet together, put the fingers of both hands on the back of your head. Step forward with one leg. While doing so, make sure that the knee does not come in front of the top of the foot. After that, bend the knee of the back leg on the zenja. Turn your body to the side of the front leg and return to the starting position.
The muscle groups that are activated are the front and back, butt, and side abs.
Important notes
The exercises that we have listed represent only a part of the whole set of exercises that you can perform outside.
However, it is very important to note the following:
Before starting, you need to warm up and prepare your muscles for a certain effort. So, the simplest way to do it can be running, or jumping over a bolt.
Also, in order to achieve the desired effect, it is enough to go outside three times a week and devote up to 30 minutes to these exercises.
And finally, if you have any health restrictions, consult a doctor or sports expert.
