Good exercises for abs and pecs out of gym?
i need good exercises for my pecs and abs that i can do at home
One of the best exercises for pecs is push-ups. If you can do them easily from the toes, then you can make them even harder by elevating your feet on a bench or stability ball. If that’s too easy, you can do them on the floor and get someone to add resistance by pushing on your back. You can also add instablilty by placing one or both hands on an unstable surface such as an inflated disc.
These types of push-ups also do work your abs. Especially these…stagger your hand positions. One hand at shoulder level, and the other above your head (still on the floor). Do a few, then switch hand positions and do the same number again.
If push-ups from the toes are too difficult, you can do them from the knees.
Some good ab work to do at home are V-sits with torso twists. To add resistance, do them while holding a weight or weighted ball.
You can do a great push-up core combo as follows…Do a full push-up. Rotate your body into a side bridge position* and hold for a few seconds. Rotate back into push-up position and do another full push-up. Rotate your body into a side bridge position on the other side and hold. Repeat doing push-up, side bridge, push-up side bridge until you can’t do any more.
*A right side bridge is when your right hand is on the floor, your right arm is straight, your hips are stacked, your legs are straight, your right foot is on the floor and your left foot rests on top of your right foot. Your left arm is straight up in the air. Your body looks like the letter "t".
Good luck!
