[QUOTE="Feicarsinn, post: 514469, member: 22777"] If you want to strengthen your core you've got to go longer I'm afraid. You should start off at the minute mark and build from there. That works as a good segway for a point I wanted to bring up. As some of you know, my leg is currently crocked. This means that I have to give quite a bit of time to doing rehab on it and of course it means I'm completely unable to train. The thing is, the rehab is better done at home for a number of reasons and considering that it takes around 40 minutes, I'm not really arsed trekking of to the gym after. So, I was wondering how good a work out I'd be able to achieve at home ie. weight free. As far as I can see there are only two pieces of equipment that are needed for the process; a pull up bar and an ab roller (both of which I happen to be in possession of in any case.) So essentially the workout would entail lots of: Chin ups - working the back, shoulders and biceps Push ups - chest, shoulders and triceps Handstand push ups - shoulders and arms Ab roller - Abs (this thing is monster btw!) Hyper extensions - lower back, glutes, hamstrings (This one is really dependant on how strong my leg is) Obviously reps are something that I'm going to have to figure out as I go along, but they going to be pretty big sets. Bear in mind that I'm not looking for massive muscle gain here, merely to keep on top of everything while I'm out of action. Thoughts? [/QUOTE]
