TL;DR - All you need to build a good physique is a pair of dumbbells and bodyweight movements.
Cons of going to the gym:
Instead of wasting money on a gym pass, you spend $30 on a pair of dumbbells on amazon and work out at home.
All you need to do in order to build muscle is focus on a bodyweight or dumbbell movement and do it until failure. Rest, and then do it again until you hit your desired amount of sets.
It is that simple.
The problem is that most people are too lazy to work out till failure so they go and buy themselves a gym pass and undertrain themselves so they feel like they’re actually working out.
Why working at home is better than going to the gym.
Dumbbell movements are obvious so I won’t add them here. If you need help picking dumbbell movements to target a certain muscle post a comment below and I’ll reply to it.
Cons of going to the gym:
- Spending $50 dollars a month on a gym pass (depending on where you live). Some gyms trap you into paying for a membership with mandatory contracts.
- Waiting for other people to finish using gym equipment.
- Having to fit your schedule around a gym’s opening and closing times if you don’t have access to a 24-hour gym.
- Wasting time having to travel, pack and sign into your gym.

- Consistent results since you can work out anywhere. There’s no excuse not to work out.
- Quicker recovery times since you’re not frying your CNS nervous system with super heavy sets.
- Increased strength gains due to the fact that bigger muscles produce more force. If you want to exclusively train for strength go to a powerlifting gym, not a shitty commercial gym. Also, you’re not going be lifting shit with an FFMI less than twenty, you need to gain muscle in order to do that.
- Increase productivity since you can fit your workout around your daily tasks.
- Press-ups
- Dips
- Lungees
- Air Squats
- Burpees
- Standing calf raise
