Get fit for FREE!

With the increasing rise in household bills it's time to go beck to basics and get fit without worrying about the monthly gym membership! by Matt Kay

There is no avoiding the fact that the cost of living is increasing. As it does one of the first things to go is your monthly gym membership. However, you should not let that stop you getting into great shape this year with my 3D workout that requires no equipment. On top of that you get a great sun tan in the process as these workouts are designed to be done outdoors! In fact this might even be a better option than going to the gym.

As human beings we are designed to move. You just have to take one look at a human skeleton to realise that. With 1000's of bones, muscles and joints we are perfectly formed to move up, down, side to side, forwards and back, twist and turn. However, very few of us allow our bodies to move the way are designed to move!

In actual fact the human body is designed to move in three different ways; linear (forwards, back, up and down), lateral (side to side) and rotational (twist). If you look at most, if not all the movements that you see people do in the gym they involve just one of those movements; linear. This is why the 3D workout series could be just what you are looking for without the expense of shiny equipement that just limits your movement anyway.

The first in my 3D workout series takes the lunge and the squat and tweaks them so that you are moving through all three planes for the perfect leg workout. Here goes:

Complete each exercise 8 times through, with no rest between exercises and complete the entire set 4 times through. These exercises can be included into your current routine, could be a standalone workout or even loaded up with rocks (or dumbbells) in hand for more of a strength training exercise!
