Vacation is a great time to start working out! In this video I show you a fitness routine for the complete beginner that you can incorporate into your vacation, no equipment is required and it can actually make your vacation more enjoyable.

The most important aspect of the workout is the cardio. Park the car and dont get back in it till its time to drive home. Rent a bike for transportation or walk everywhere, not only does it provide exercise but its a lot more enjoyable and lower stress than driving. The workout can be incorporated into your daily tourist activities and doesnt need any special time alloted. The workout is: biking or walking, 1-2hrs per day
crunches for core/abs, 2 sets per day (should take less than 5 minutes)
pushups for chest and triceps, 2 sets per day (should take less than 5 minutes)
pullups for lats and biceps, 2 sets per day (should take less than 5 minutes)

I spend a lot of time in the video showing various places to do pullups, this is because I get an incredible number of emails from people who claim that they have "nowhere' to do pullups. In the video I point out lots of places you can do this key exercise.

The reason many people dont get started in bodybuilding is that it seems to complex and intimidating, thats why I recommend this simple program. Its an easy program and you start feeling better immediately, and your brain starts to associate exercising with feeling good. A recent study showed that as little as 10min of exercise a day can do wonders for you mind and body. Once you brain has made the connection between exercise and feeling good, motivation is no longer a problem and you will find yourself wanting to add new exercises.

If you are overweight and can only do 3 knee pushups, dont be discouraged, its not the number of pushups you can do that is important but the effort. For those of you who are overweight, think of it this way, you are lifting far more weight in your pushups than your lighter counterparts so its natural that you cant do as many pushups. What is important is that you make progress each week, if you did 3 knee pushups last week, try to do 3 1/2 knee pushups this week.

Anyone can be healthier, have more energy, sleep better, and feel better about themselves through bodybuilding. Bodybuilding doesn't have to be expensive or take a lot of time, gyms are great but home workouts can save you time and money. A cheap dumbbell set from a garage sale or walmart is all it takes to get started with your home workouts.

  • Hey Scooby,

    I have seen a few of your videos now and I have decided to start a new diet and exercise plan with the guidance of your videos. I am only young but I still want to gain some muscle because I am quite skinny. I was just wondering, at what rate would I gain muscle using the begginer home workout? I was hoping that I might have some definate improvements in 3 month from now.

    Thanks.

  • You will get stronger every week but dont expect to see visible results for a year or so. Adding muscle is a very slow process.

  • Scooby, does weightlifting decrease one's height? i know that weightlifting does not stunt growth but i'm worried that it might decrease the height. Reply pls.

  • No weightlifting does not decrease your height, its a myth. Check out the myths section on my website.

  • LOLLL haha. what's with the last part

  • i wouldnt ask you jack shit. U cant even spell for fucks sake.and your probably a dumb arse cuz your a boxer.

  • I wont deny that i thought this was extremely DODGY... and i mean really dodgy. but i cant deny after watching it and trying it, alas im not on vacation but i did do it around the. that this regime is EXTREMELY effective, i'd reccomend it to anyone, so dont knock it off straight away

  • No personal attacks or bad language please or you will be blocked.

  • msg for shqipstreetfighter

    dont comment on something you obviously kno nothing about.saying he is full of proteins? u say it like it is a bad thing preotein is an essential body fuel needed for growth and repair. If you put the body under alot of strain thru training thenu need adequate amounts of protein to aid recovery.

    saying your in better shape then scooby after 2 years of training is most likely bull, the average body can only put on 12lbs of muscle a yr so in 2 yrs u look beta yea rite!
