No equipment...roll the dice for some creative workouts

Body weight exercises are a fantastic way to tone muscle, burn fat and even elevate the heart rate.  With a bit of imagination and some motivation there are endless body weight combinations that are sure to produce fantastic results.

Try this mix up game for a fun workout.

You will need a pen, a die and some paper.

Write out the following on small pieces of paper and create 3 piles:

1. (first pile) Body weight movements
2. (second pile) Repetitions ranges that you are comfortable with (i.e between 1 and 100)
3. (third pile) Number of sets that you are comfortable with (i.e between 1 and 10)

Next roll a die, the number on the die will determine the number of body weight movements picked from the first pile.  This will make up the movements and order of the workout.

Roll the die for each movement selected to determine the number of repetitions.

Next pick from the last pile to determine the number of times you will complete each circuit.  Put it all together and you have a creative, new body weight workout.
