If you want to gain muscles you probably think the gym is the right place to do that.

Of course, that’s logical.

But what if you are on a budget, or you don’t have time and you can’t go to the gym?

Can you build muscles at home without equipment?

Of course, you can.

You just need to do the right exercises, be creative, and be persistent.

So, let’s see what are the best exercises for muscle mass you can do at your home.

These exercises are the best bodyweight exercises you can do.

How to build your muscles at home?

Here are the best exercises for every muscle group:

Squat

A classic exercise for your legs. (2)

How to do it?

You can do it with your bodyweight to start.

After a few days, you can do it with dumbbells if you have some.

Or simply fill a bag with some heavy things you have and put it on your back.

Split squat

How to do this exercise?

Keep your back straight, your legs together, and your arms close to your body.

Step up and squat until you form a 90-degree angle.

Go back to your starting position and then repeat the same with your other leg.

Like with squat, after a while add some weights.

Standing calf raise

This is the best calf exercise. (3)

You just need a doorstep for this exercise.

What’s important here is to raise your heels so that you stand on your tiptoes and then to lower your heels to feel a stretch in your calves.
