• and so on …

This way you can have a mouth-watering meal you can enjoy.

The same thing with formulating body-weight workouts, you need to consider of exercising every muscle in your body and all range of motions that your body joints, muscles can and should perform.

If all you do for your shoulder is using the computer, remote control, holding the steering wheel and similar “limited range of motions”, you're asking for an injury!

Your shoulders need to move upward (overhead), side to side, and all possible angles within the shoulder range of motion.

Another issue when you want to design body-weight workouts is training for symmetrical body development.

For example, training your chest and biceps but neglecting your legs and lower back can create imbalance and weakness. Having strong arms but weak and flat butt is also not functional nor an appealing body.

From the top of your neck and all the down to your toes should be exercised to build balanced, functional, and stronger body.

Here's an example of whole body workout for a week …

- You had a tough day at work or at home managing your family and feel exhausted mentally, then it's ok to take a day off and be fresh for your next workout.

- Ready for more challenge, then step it up one notch

- Should you feel pain during the exercise in that case you should discontinue
