Men's 4-Week Home Workout Routine To Get Strong And Lean

Training plan to help you build a healthy lifestyle

Summer is here. It's the perfect time to create a healthy lifestyle.

Whether you want to get big? Lose fat? Get stronger? Whatever your goal is, we will help you achieve it.

In this article we will give you a training plan that will help you build a strong and healthy body at home.

It's that time of the year when you just want to look and feel good. The mission here is not to give you "quick fixes" to help you achieve your goal in four weeks.

The purpose is to give you the right structure, knowledge and content to help you build the right habits necessary to achieve this goal.

At the end of these four weeks, you will not only look and feel good by exercising regularly, but you will also feel confident and competent in your ability to change your body.

There is not only "one way" to get fit, you can achieve your health and fitness goals using various training types.

This is why we included different type of workouts. To give you a taste of these training types and to help you become a complete athlete.

This training plan will include:

  • HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training): This training type will allow you to build stamina and helps burn a lot of calories in a short period of time (more than LISS), which is perfect for fat loss.
  • Strength Training: Getting stronger will help you get that toned look that we all desire. It allows you to build muscle, which will make you increase your metabolism and help you burn fat.
  • LISS (Low Intensity Steady State Cardio): It helps you build endurance and also make you burn calories. It is a great option for people who can't handle high impact movements that HIIT tends to focus on.

If you want to lose fat, you will have to be in caloric deficit, which means burning more calories than you consume.

This can be accomplished by either eating less calories or by exercising more to help burn more calories.

Thus, we've structured workouts in circuits. This will allow you to try a wide range of exercises and it will help you burn more calories since you're doing several exercises back to back before getting a break.

Some workouts will feel more intense than others and it is normal. They all serve a different purpose. Some days we will focus on building a strong lower body and core, while others will aim for speed, which will make your heart rate go high and aid your fat loss.

We all have different lifestyles and schedules. Therefore, it is important to build a routine that can be easily adjusted if necessary.

We've created different training plans to help you find what works best for you. These workout routines all have the same goals: lose fat, build muscle and get stronger.

We will slowly increase the intensity of the workouts on a weekly basis, so you can progress accordingly.

Don't hesitate to add more resistance if you have access to gym equipment.

Achieving your fitness goals will require you to master three key principles: work out regularly, eat well and recover.

It is important to start small by changing your habits in a sustainable way.

It's hard to make many changes at once. Therefore, I recommend you to try exercising regularly first. That's the "easiest" part.

Once you've found a way to work out systematically without burning out (takes two to three weeks), then you may consider improving your eating habits.

This training program can be adjusted according to your preferences and needs.

Here are some of the changes you could make:

  • Change the days you want to train on. Try to keep the same workouts' order, they will allow you to train certain muscle groups while others are resting.
