There are tons of reasons why you should be training with your bodyweight.
However, one of the most important reasons is the fact that bodyweight training teaches you muscle control.
I know guys who can bench press 400+ pounds, but can't do a single proper pushup.
Why is this the case? It's because bodyweight training activates more muscles and muscle fibers than you can count on three hands.
There are dozens of stabilizer muscles that are not activated when exercising on machines and free weights.
Now let me tell you one thing - bodyweight training is NOT easy.
It's hard work and maybe that's why most individuals choose to ignore it.
Don't ignore it.
I'm going to give you a really simple training technique you can use TODAY to help you manage fatigue and get the most out of your bodyweight training.
Drop the Repetitions as you Progress with the Workout A typical bodyweight program looks something like this:

• Bodyweight Squats, 3x20
• Pushups, 3x10
• Pullups, 3x5

What usually happens is that the first set is easy.
The second set is a little hard.
And the last set is the toughest.
So you're actually doing only one valuable set.
You're not only wasting a lot of time, but your...
yeah you're actually just wasting a whole lot of time.
A better workout can be constructed using the descending repetitions method.
This method is exactly what it sounds like - decrease the repetitions after each set.
The key to making this technique useful is to perform a high number of repetitions for the first set.
For example, a push up workout modified using the descending repetitions method would look something like this:

• Set one - 15 reps
• Set two - 10 reps
• Set three - 5 reps

With this scheme, you are performing the same amount of work, but each set is going to be harder than the one before it.
Try this method out and let know what you think.
