Body Building: Can I Do It At Home?
Many aspiring bodybuilders want to know if they have to join a gym to get a good workout. Of course, the answer to that is no. While there are both advantages and disadvantages to working out either at home or at the gym, there's no reason you can't get just as good of a workout at home as at the gym-if you do it right.
Usually if you go to a gym, you'll have access to lots of different equipment and there will be professionals there who can provide you with good training advice. It may also be safer because other people are around. On the other hand, it can get annoying waiting for equipment you want to use or listening to other users at the gym just sitting around gossiping.
As regards working-out at home, there are many benefits to this: no fee (my favourite), no hassle travelling there and parking, workout with your shirt off, you can play your own music, no queuing for equipment and you don't have to worry about what other people are thinking about you when you are shouting at the bar for motivation.
The biggest drawback to a home gym is that you have to buy all the equipment, and that can be pricey. (Although you may be able to resell it in the future if necessary.) The other downside is that other people who live with you may not appreciate all the space it requires.
Working-out at home allows you to build muscle mass at your convenience and if you go by the following how to build muscles fast at home guidelines you should not have a problem working-out at home:
1) Find a suitably large space, such as a garage, basement or spare room. You should always have a solid ground floor which means that a ground floor is a much safer option. A bonus would be a well ventilated area. Fully water proof your garage, this will stop them your weights from rusting and becoming damaged.
2) Permanently remove any easily damaged objects. Youtube provides and amusing clip of a young guy swinging his barbell into the fish tank which splinters into pieces! Funny of course unless it is your tank. Try to get a permanent set training spot, this will prevent any future mistakes like this. Imagine slipping a barbell into the screen of a plasma tv ot dropping a dumbell on a new laptop, not too much fun.
3) Buy the basic equipment to start. You will want to purchase a weight bench, a workout mat, a set of cast iron barbells/dumbbells, a pull up bar, and a squat stand. Be sure you select a good brand of high quality for long life and durability.
4) Create a workout for yourself. Using the equipment you've purchased, design a workout to build your muscles. Do compound exercises that combine squats, pull ups, bench presses, and dead lifts with sets of upright rows, lunges, barbell curls, shoulder presses, bent over rows, and lateral raises, among other exercises.
5) Keep it safe. Always lift with a spotter-even in your own gym-or take extra safety precautions. For instance, don't push for extra reps when you're getting tired. And install pins on lifts so that you can set barbells down above chest level and extricate yourself from the machine without crushing yourself.
