You may notice that people usually train for a couple of months then get bored and quit.
If you really want those ripped abs and a toned physique, then you must exercise and stick with it.
How to do that is to find different exercises you enjoy doing so that you look forward to your exercise routine.
Here are 5 different exercises than the usual bunch you do at the gym to keep you working out when you feel unenthusiastic about the same old routine.
1.
Staircase workout All you need is a set of stairs, which can be found most everywhere.
If you do not have stairs at home, go to a football stadium, multi-floor building or shopping mall.
For a full body workout, try mixing stair sprints with upper body exercise such as pull-ups or pushups.
Try sprinting, climbing fast or walking up and down the stairs until you build up to completing them several times.
This will increase your heart rate and build lean muscle mass.
There are ways of doing creative stair climbing exercises as well.
2.
Hill or wind sprints Find an open field such as a park or athletic field and do 50, 75 or 100-yard sprints.
Rest at the end of each sprint to catch your breath usually 1-2 minutes.
Try doing 6-20 wind sprints per workout.
If you cannot find an open field, try finding a hill.
Walk or sprint up the hill as fast as possible, and then walk back down the hill to rest.
Repeat this until you have given out.
These will definitely build muscle mass, burn fat and increase your metabolism.
3.
Body weight workout Try doing exercises that only use your own bodyweight one or two times per week.
These can be done in just 15-30 minutes and do not require equipment.
These would include squats, pushups, lunges and floor abdominal exercises such as crunches.
Take only small rest periods between exercises.
If you are advanced, you may want to try handstand pushups, one-arm pushups and one-legged squats.
4.
Swimming Swimming one to two times per week can really enhance your physique.
Try doing sprint type swimming exercises such as swimming from one end to the other end of the pool as fast as you can.
Make sure to take a rest between sets for 20-40 seconds.
If you do not have a swimming pool available, you can use a lake or the ocean.
For a more diverse workout, try mixing strokes such as the crawl, breaststroke, backstroke, butterfly or sidestroke.
This will give you a more toned build without the soreness the next day.
You can get a great workout in 30-40 minutes of sprint swimming.
5.
Skipping rope You just cannot beat skipping rope for a full body exercise.
It is great for a warm up or for a stand-alone exercise.
A cheap plastic speed rope will do just fine.
Once you have practiced, you can incorporate more involved rope skipping techniques such as arm crossovers, one-legged jump, two legged jump, or double jumps.
Try doing 15-20 second high intensity burst jumps as fast as possible followed by 15-20 rest periods where you jump much slower.
Keep skipping until you are too tired to skip rope anymore.
This is only five of fifteen different exercises that can increase your efforts to get that ripped, tight body.
