How to get fit anywhere: what really works and why you don't need to train as hard as you think.
"New year. New me." Did you sign up for a gym in January and then only went twice?
Do you look at bodybuilders and think "If only I could be 50% as fit"?
Have you caught yourself giving up training because you're too busy?
If so, then you must know one thing - you have the wrong conception of fitness! It's not all about pouring gallons of sweat in the gym six days a week. It's not about eating only dry chicken with plain rice for the rest of your life, and you won't need expensive equipment and personal trainers to reach your goals.
In fact, all you need is proper bodyweight training. If it sounds scary - it really shouldn't. Most people start their training not knowing their limits, following general routines and making little to no changes in their lives. For some - the lucky few - it might work. But most of us need something more flexible, less straining and… much more effective.
