Exercise at Home!

No Gym Membership? No Problem! In this post we will take you through a workout that you can do right from the comfort of your home. If you can invest in some basic exercise equipment for home workouts such as a mat, some weights or resistance bands, and a stability ball that’s great. If not, you can still have a great work out at home by following these tips.

This comprehensive 30 minute workout from Health.com includes cardio, strength training, and ab work. Check out the link for instructions with pictures.

2 minutes of jumping jacks

24 reps of side lunges on each leg

24 dancing squats on each leg

2 minutes of line hops

Bicep circles – 16 reps on each arm

24 reps of triceps with a twist on each side

If you do not have weights, try putting some heavy cans or a brick in a shopping bag with a handle. If you’re a beginner, you may want to do this workout without the weights to start, until you build up your endurance a bit. This is a great way to get moving – do this routine several times a week for improved circulation and heart health, stronger muscles, and boosted metabolism! Let us know in the comments how it goes!
