I've been doing body weight workouts every morning for about 6 weeks now [THREAD]

And I feel strong.. and more flexible.. and more agile.. than I have felt since I played soccer as a teen..

If you have any back/neck/shoulder/leg pains.. like I did.. or have depression

I highly recommend (I can not stress this enough) starting a workout routine at home using nothing but your own body weight.

I'm 30 years old now, and I can once again fully bend over and touch my toes.. whereas before I had excruciating back pain when i bent over at all..

One of the main benefits of body weight over lifting weights is the fact you can't really over lift or strain your muscles. I hurt my back doing too much weight on the squat rack and leg press machines. And for what ?

I have achieved the sames results without the pain..

I also now have so much more energy than I did by not working out at all. And for me, since I workout in the morning, I really feel like my body is more "warmed up" to take on the day.

It's just like the idea that you would never run a race without stretching first.

Another key

benefit is the healing nature this has on your body and mind. Since you are not lifting heavy weights and destroying your muscles in a gym, you can actually do bodyweight everyday. This allows your body to heal itself naturally without over straining it..

And anyone struggling with depression or lack of motivation.. forcing yourself to do 20 mins every morning.. of body weight workouts has proven to have magical effects on your mental state.

Try it for 30 days. See the impact it has on your body.. and on your mind.. GOODLUCK!
