Basic Home Workout for Starter

Starting is always hardest, no matter what you do.

Before coming up with this basic home workout for starter, I had a great feeling of doing something like this because I found many people, including myself, had a tough time trying to begin with exercising or workout at home due to many personal reasons and therefore, many had failed to start with it. There are many reasons behind failing to begin with some workout. The common reasons I found are below:

• Not sure what type of workout is suitable for own self and environment
• Not sure when to perform those workout
• Sweating out is inconvenient if there is activity later (Example: Work, Going out)
• Taking bath after workout is troublesome
• There is a need to clean the floor or exercise mat after you sweats out
• You had taken your bath so you don't want to take another one
• Too busy, so leave it for next time
• Feeling tired today, so leave it for next time
• Don't have time or idea to plan what type of workout I should do
• It's bored to do it alone
• I don't think it will be effective
• I prefer to do something else now
• My room/place don't have enough space
• I'm actually thin and healthy
• I'm fat so my body is heavy to perform any workout
• I'm feeling not quite well
• I need more sleep instead

Summarizing all the common reasons above, the main obstacles for not starting or performing any workout is because of laziness, lack of self control, and unable to see the benefits behind exercise or workout. This is why, before you thinking what type of workout you should do, where and how you should it, you need to ensure that you overcome the three main obstacles. All you need is "just do it" and don't tell yourself "but..." or "however...".

Anyhow, if you still wondering what type of workout you should do when you are at home, here are some simple workout that doesn't required any tools and consume very little space.
