Best single exercise for overall fitness \ stacker news ~HealthAndFitness

Honestly there isn't 1 workout that's going to effectively hit your whole body, especially from home. If I wanted to work out, from home, and effectively train my entire body I would do something like this.

It's bodyweight and it's scalable depending on your fitness level.

squats with a barebell

Don’t underestimate walking. If you have time getting 10k to 20k steps a day and watching your caloric intake will have you burning fat but keeping lean muscle mass.

I found this has failed me I have been keeping my steps up over 10k not abusing my diet and yet have found I have fatty liver. I think the lack of some harder exercise is what I may be missing

Nothing compares to running 🏃‍♂️

Running is great but alone not so good in my opinion people that only run seem to lack some muscle

Best workout is any in the sun. I do simple routines. Mostly stretches of the kind. But, pushups (diamond) ab work and thats really it. Eat well (mean, local, seasonal), get light and have a good life.

Pushups if you don’t have any equipment

Push ups are part of a burpee ? Do you find they are better by themselves?

0 sats \ 1 reply \ @Blank 4h

When training -I prefer to do a variety of movements because I find burpies boring. That and I enjoy doing them thought the day.

I thought I'd say squats because it is one of the best possible exercises you can do for your physical health.

Leg strength will be huge into old age as a big issue can be falls so having solid legs and balance is crucial

I think a long 8 mile run is one of the best workouts one can do. I also think it is about what you are trying to do with your body and what your goals are.

Haha that does sound heavy.

It would be at least 1.5x body weight on the bar so it’s recommended you wear a lifting belt
