One of the best home fitness programs out there is Turbulence Training. Author Craig Ballantyne shows you five of the best chest bodyweight exercises:

When most people start training, they follow a typical bodybuilding program they find in some random fitness magazine. Then they wonder why they’re not getting results.

One of the fundamental aspects of Turbulence Training is full body workouts. And I personally believe that you should start out with full body workouts before isolating.

In other words, isolating comes after you’ve developed a solid fitness foundation. For example, lets say after 3-6 months of full body workouts, you realize that your chest is lagging.

This is the time to start training your chest, exclusively. Even then, I don’t believe in devoting a full day to just training your chest (unless you’re trying to be a competitive bodybuilder).

Instead, perform a few chest exercises during an off day, or as a warmup to your workout. You can even use one of the following movements as “finishers.” Finishers are movements that you perform at the end of a workout to failure.

For example, lets say you decide to use pushups as your finisher exercise. Don’t do too many pushup exercises during the actual workout. Keep your chest relatively fresh.

Then, at the end of the workout, go all out. Try to pump out as many as possible, and as fast as possible. You may be surprised. Sometimes you feel stronger at the end of the workout since your blood is already flowing, your adrenaline is tapped.

Overall, I still believe that the best way to train is the Craig Ballantyne teaches: full body, high intensity workouts. You should definitely check out some of his workouts.
