]]> If you are a beginner to the world of fitness and weights are a little scary to you, fear not. You can start by doing bodyweight exercises until you feel stronger and more comfortable picking up a little weight. You will still get the benefits and you’ll develop strength, plus you can do these exercises anywhere with no equipment, so you don’t even need to enter a gym.

Here are three bodyweight exercises for you to start withβ€”no weights required.

Push Ups

If you are new to push-ups you can either do them against a wall or with your hands on a bench. Or instead, start on your knees instead of straightened legs. There are loads of different variations of the body weight push-up, you just have to find what is right for you.

Pulse Squats

These are a little harder than the regular body weight squats but more effective and will get your heart rate soaring. Stand with your feet a little wider than hip-width apart and go down into a squat, instead of coming all the way up, straighten the legs halfway and go back down to the bottom of your squat then straighten to the start position.

Single-Leg Glute Bridge

This is a great hamstring and glute exercise. It can be a little challenging on one leg, but that’s how to get the best results. It also works your core and helps to keep your body balanced. Lie flat on a mat with your knees bent and feet on the floor, straighten one leg to knee level and push through the foot on the floor to lift your hips, squeeze the glutes at the top.

Single-Leg Glute Bridge

Lie on your back with your knees bent and your feet flat on the floor. Extend one leg up to the ceiling and on your exhale squeeze your glutes and push your hips up as high as they can go. Pause for 2 seconds then lower to the floor and repeat 10 times per side. You can add weight for more impact.

Single-Leg Dead Lift

Stand on one foot and with your other leg bent in front of you, knee at hip height. Engage your glutes as you bend forward, hands reaching towards the ground and extend the bent leg straight behind you. Return to starting positing and repeat 12 times on each leg.

Sumo Squat

Stand each foot on step wider than shoulder-width apart, toes are slightly angled out. Take a kettlebell or dumbbell with both hands and squat down, hips back and knees in line with your toes and then come up and squeeze your glutes. Repeat 12 times.
