GPP Workouts at Home

GPP Workouts at Home

Can't get to the gym? Don't sweat it, instead use it as an opportunity to get back to the basics.

Many today have 'home gyms,' whether this means a full-on power rack situation, or some bands and modest square footage the significant other allows you to use.

Using this inability to get to the gym of choice might be in your benefit, not only immediately, but for long term gains as well. Remember, in the Westside Conjugate System, one's ability to reach max potential is designated by the GPP (general physical preparedness) of the individual.

 The grander this base, the higher the potential. Below are some workouts to help build that base using only bodyweight, mini, monster mini, light, average, and strong bands!
