Going to the gym can be costly and annoying. You either have to get up at the crack of dawn to get a workout out before work or get home from work and drag yourself there. Once there it can be overcrowded and your favorite machine taken. Also, you can be afraid to experiment with new exercise because you don’t want to get embarrassed. The better alternative is to exercise at home. So what is the best at home workout?
The answer is a fun and fast 15 minute workout called My System that requires no equipment and will leave you with more energy after performing it than before. It also takes care of every health need you can think of and is taught over a easy to learn 6 week video course.
Before we get into the details of My System, let’s look at what you should be looking at with your home workout.
What Makes a Great Home Workout?
First off, you want it to be equipment free. Working out with weights or equipment can get really expensive; you can easily spend thousands of dollars before it’s all said and done. When you just use your body you get so many benefits:
- It’s safer than heavy weights that can be dropped and cause injury
- You gain coordination, balance, and flexibility
- You become more in tune with your body
- It’s completely free and just as effective
Don’t Waste Your Time
Most people have such a busy life and can’t afford to spend hours exercising. Its not even necessary.
I personally know people who spend at least two hours everyday to get 1/4 of the results My System gives you.
So how can you possibly get great results in just fifteen minutes? It’s possible because My System took over 50 years to develop! Every one of the twenty exercises were closely scrutinized, developed and improved over this period of time. Every breath is accounted for and you smoothly move from one movement to another without pause. This isn’t done at a breakneck speed where you’re left out of breath; it’s done at a comfortable speed that will have you feeling deeply relaxed and energized.
Take Care of Every Health Need
When I say every health need, I mean more than just your muscles. All your muscles will be worked out in My System and be developed greatly but your health relies on more than just that. As a matter of fact your muscles aren’t even a top priority for optimal health.
To be truly healthy every single aspect of your body needs to strengthened and made healthy. This includes your lungs, your skin and your internal organs.
Your lungs and breathing are so important. People with weak lungs develop asthma and have a lack energy (your energy comes from your metabolism which comes from the combo of oxygen and food: better breathing = more energy). How you breathe is directly related to your confidence as well. And before your brush this off, its important to note only 1 out of every 50 people breath correctly.
Your skin helps protect your body from bacteria and germs. You partially breath with it and it helps regulate your body temperature too. Bad skin can lead to dryness and sickness. Healthy skin is pimple free and doesn’t wrinkle or sag. It’s also soft like velvet and is difficult for germs to penetrate.
Your internal organs may be the most important aspect of your health. This includes your kidneys, liver and digestive system. If one of these fails it can lead to a very serious disease or even death. What’s the point of having a huge muscular body if you ignore your digestive system and develop sickness from it?
My System will develop and strengthen every single one of these aspects.
How Can My System Possibly Do This?
Before I get into this, I have written about My System a lot on this website and I’m only going to briefly describe each aspect and list some benefits. I’ll include links that go more in depth so you can read more. Here is an article on all the benefits.
My System combines exercise, deep breathing, cool showers and self massage which scientifically relax, strengthen and tone to body and leaves you in phenomenal health.
Here’s how it’s broken down:
The first 9 exercises are normal body weight movements. These include push ups, sit-ups and other movements like that. Your core will be strengthened greatly by doing these movements and any fat will be replaced with lean muscle. There is a big focus on your abs and obliques in these movements.
Deep Breathing
I already mentioned the importance of breathing but did you know breathing exercises can be dangerous? People have ruined there lives by misusing breathing techniques and cause derangement to their nerves. They can be dangerous when you strain or do the breathing too aggressively. There are two important things to keep in mind when doing breathing practices:
- Proper Form
- Never Strain
The deep breathing in My System is safe and easy to use. It is because the breathing is done between the exercises when your breathing is elevated and more air is needed.
Performing the deep breathing will:
- Improve your confidence
- Relax your body
- Improve lung function and capacity
- Reduce nervousness, depression and anxiety
- Cure insomnia
- Cure allergies
- Give more energy
Cool Shower
After you finish the first 9 exercises you will take a cool shower. The cool shower has so many benefits which include calming nerves, improving skin and improving hair.
Don’t worry about how the cold shower feels either. Because you work out before hand your body is warmed up and the cool shower feels so good; much better than a hot one.
Also, it’s recommenced to decrease the temperature of the shower from hot to cold in increments over a period of time. This way your body won’t even notice the difference in the change of temperature.
Trust me, I resisted this part of the workout for a long time. The second I made the change I haven’t taken a hot shower since. Cold feels to good.
Self Massage
The last 11 exercises of the workout are a self massage for the skin and internal organs. There are thousands of tiny muscles connected to vessels of the skin that lose their firmness over time because they don’t get exercised. This leads to wrinkles and sagging.
This massage is the best way to keep these tiny muscles in tip top shape. If your perform the skin massage everyday you will wrinkle proof your skin for life. It will also improve your skin complexion and blood flow. All pimples and blemishes will disappear over time as well.
The massage is a simple stroking and rubbing with your hands to your skin. This rubbing is combined with exercise. For example, you do a toe touch but on the way down rub the back of your legs and on the way up rub the front of your legs.
These rubbings aren’t done in a random order either. They are scientific in nature and are designed to tone and strengthen every internal organ in your body (the deep breathing creates a massage for organs too).

Awesome post. I agree with a lot of the points that you made here. It is way better to work out at home. The reason being is that you can be yourself. You make all the crazy looking faces of exhaustion instead of doing so around a bunch a people. That right there can be really embarrassing. You also have all the water and drinks you need in your home. Its perfect. Just have to have some space where you can workout at.

Working out at home is the best
This is a very intresting post I love that you talk of taking care of every health need too many people just care about how much weight they loose rather than being as healthy as possible. I also agree working out at home is the best I always do my workouts at home why pay so much for something you can do for free in the comfort of your own home!
Thanks for commenting
Its true working out at home is better for many people. Im glad you found the material interesting.
My System looks like a wonderful idea. I used to go to the gym a lot and lift a lot of heavy weights, until I hurt my lower back, that is. This looks like such a good alternative to heavy lifting. Not to mention all the additional benefits you’ve included to help improve overall health. There is so much useful information on your site and I really appreciate you adding the extra tips at the end. Thank you!
Thanks for commenting Pete,
That’s the problem with heavy weight lifting. You sell your long term health for short term gains. Im glad you found this all helpful
Hey Dylan,
I never knew about all of these benefits of working out at home vs the gym. I had read about home workouts before and even tried programs like p90x and similar but was never able to get the results I was seeking because of how intense the programs were. In addition to that, I thought that perhaps these programs weren’t working because I didn’t have all the fancy equipment that gyms have. Its nice to know that I can get a great workout in the comfort of my own home without having to spend a bunch. Im wondering if there are any negative “side effects” of taking a cool shower after a workout vs a hot one because I’ve always been told the heat helps relax the muscles whereas a cold shower can cramp you up. Thanks again!
Thanks for commenting Josh,
That’s the problem with p90x, it is way to intense to keep doing. There’s no point exhausting yourself if you dont have to. And as long as you are warm, a cold shower will only have good benefits.
I have tried a few home workout programs in the past but soon got bored of the long exercises.
My System sure sounds like a fun and very fast way to work on myself every day 🙂
I have never liked using equipment because it costs money as you say, and there’s the storage space to find if you don’t have a spare room in your home.
There certainly are some great benefits to My System, and I like the idea of having a cool shower too!
Neil 🙂
That’s why I like this system. It’s fast, easy and fun plus there’s no equipment needed. Plus it gives so many health benefits
