Lebert Bars Bodyweight Workout | Natalie Jill

Hi, guys. Natalie, Jill. Welcome back to Happy, Healthy and Fit. Today we're going to advance your bodyweight workout using some of my favorite bars. Are you ready?

So I am a huge fan of bodyweight exercises and I get asked a lot about do you use any equipment at all? And yes, sometimes I do use equipment. But here's the key. The equipment I use is all stuff that helps to add to your own bodyweight routine. So it's still still all functional training. So there's a few pieces of equipment that I absolutely love and these bars happen to be one of them. They're called libre bars and I'm going to put all the information below so you can see exactly where to get them. They have different sizes and colors and so forth, but you could do your entire workout on them. They're amazing and they help you to advance your stuff to the next level. So I'm going to do a quick workout with you today, showing you a few of my favorite exercises that are going to really challenge you, help you with that ab development and just get you stronger all over. So here's what we've got. The first one we've got is a modified chin up. Now this is great. If you're learning to do chin ups or pull ups for the first time, you can use, you can use a lowered squat rack at the gym or you could use these at home. I love these bars for that reason. You'll put your feet out, you'll choose your grip. A chin up would be when your palms are face to face towards you. If you have them out, that is more of a pull up position. But you're going to work to pull yourself up using this lowered bar. As you master this, you get closer to being able to do an actual real chin up or a pull up. The next exercise is a dip. Now, you can start with these by putting your feet on the floor. But to advance it and take it up a notch, you want to lift your feet up using those tricep muscles. Make this challenging and you've got dips. Now, whether you use full range of motion and go all the way down and up or just do a mini one, either way you're going to work those triceps and you're going to work your core. This is another favorite exercise of mine. After that, this is a favorite for abs. This is an L sit. This is super challenging. It's going to really work those triceps and also your core big time. So you are going to hold with your legs up. You're Using those abs, mostly the lower abs, to hold yourself up. It is an advanced move. I know you can get to it and do it. Just hold it there. And then another favorite exercise I have is a lower ab swing. So in that same hold position, you're going to rock using your abs. Rock your knees forward and back, but use your abs to swing it. It's a great, great lower ab workout. After that, I've got another favorite. This is a tricep ab combo. So you'll want to use a cushion or a folded mat under your knees. You'll put your hands on the bar and you'll lean forward, working those triceps, and push back up. The further out you move the bar, the more you're going to work those abs. So you're working abs and triceps in this move. And then another thing I love to do with bars like this are different agility moves. So here I'm showing you a simple agility hop. You can get really creative with this, but this is a really simple way to get your heart rate up. And you can do these for timed amounts, 30 seconds, a minute, whatever you can do. And then if you're feeling it, you can repeat the whole workout through. So there you have it, some simple exercises you could do with your own body weight, but using some of my favorite equipment levert bars in here.
