How To Build Muscle At Home: The BEST Full Body Home Workout For Growth

In todayâ??s video weâ??ll go through a science-based full body home workout routine. When we think of a home workout, we assume that theyâ??re inferior for muscle growth. For many bodyweight workout at home routines out there, this is true. But, this is simply because they arenâ??t designed properly. You can make comparable gains in muscle mass by using either lighter loads (like bodyweight exercises), or heavier weights in the gym. But there are a couple key points that people overlook when it comes to home full body workout routines.

First off, is that you need to push to near failure for every single set you perform in this full body home workout routine. If you stop well short of failure during your sets then youâ??ll fail to fully activate all the motor units within your muscles. And you wonâ??t experience the same amount of growth that you would when using heavy weights. Secondly, you need to be working with a weight or resistance that is at least 30-40% of your 1 rep max if you want to maximize growth. So 30-40% of your 1 rep max equates to around 30-40 reps per set. So, make sure you canâ??t do more than that for the following exercises.

All that said, weâ??re now ready to dive into the full home workout. The first exercise weâ??ll use here are narrow grip push-ups with the hands placed in a diamond shape, which will be used to target the chest and triceps. Next, weâ??ll use the inverted row to target our overall back with most of the emphasis on the mid back for thickness. Then, the third exercise is pike push-ups, which mainly target the shoulders and triceps. Now, itâ??s time to target the back, primarily the lats, with a vertical pulling angle through the sliding lat pulldowns.

The fifth of the bodyweight exercises is the bicep towel curls, which allows for arms isolation. Then, to target the long head of the triceps, you can simply switch over and perform tricep extensions in your setup for the bicep curls. For most of us, bodyweight squats just arenâ??t going to cut it. Which is why weâ??ll use the towel set up again to perform assisted pistol squats to target the quads and glutes. For the eighth exercise, weâ??ll move onto the Bulgarian split squat with your rear leg elevated on a platform, which will again further target the quads and glutes. Lastly, weâ??ll use the sliding leg curl to work the hamstrings through both hip and knee extension.

Now, as for your home workout routine, just like your exercises in the gym, itâ??s vital that you get adequate rest of roughly 2 minutes between each of your sets. And to do so in this workout while saving time, you can perform the following upper body exercises in a superset fashion:

Home workout (superset):

SUPERSET:
Diamond Push-Ups: (4 sets â?? 2 flat, 2 decline)
Inverted row (4 sets)

SUPERSET:
Pike Push-ups (3 sets)
Lat pulldowns on floor (3 sets)

SUPERSET:
Biceps towel curl: 2 sets
Tricep bodyweight extensions: 2 sets

Assisted pistol squat: 3 sets each side
Bulgarian split squat 3 sets each side
Hamstring leg curls: 4 sets

Iâ??d recommend performing this full body home workout 3-4 times a week.

Guys I hope you enjoyed this one and I also hope you were able to see that itâ??s the little details like what I went through in this video that really are key to maximizing growth and to actually see progress with whatever workout routine you choose to do. And for a step-by-step program that takes care of all the guess work for you and shows you exactly how and what to work out and eat week after week so that you can fuel your body and build muscle most effectively with science, then simply take the analysis quiz to discover which science-based program would be best for you and where your body is currently at below:
