I love going to the gym, of course I do, I work in fitness, but I don’t always have the time or the childcare to get there, so I spend a lot of time working out at home, either in my little home gym or more often than not, in the living room while my little girl eats her breakfast.
Now I know I can’t be the only person in this position, so i thought I’d share one of my favourite home workouts with you, for you to have a try.
I love body weight training and using small pieces of versatile equipment, and two of my favourite pieces of kit are the Reebok Deck and a resistance band, so I’ve included them in this workout.
You’ll need a stop watch or timer for this workout. I use an app called Simple Interval Timer (SIT) and it’s available free on the App Store.
Once you’ve warmed up properly, set your timer for 40 seconds work and 10 seconds rest and complete the following circuit 4 times through.
A1: Decline Press Up
A2: Band Stiff Leg Dead Lift
A3: Band Pull Down
A4: Squat/Jump Squat Over Deck
Then you can take a rest of up to 60 seconds if you need it before moving onto circuit B.
B1: Band Incline Press
B2: Single Leg Bridge
B3: Band Row
B4: Elevated Split Squat
Then you can take a rest of up to 60 seconds if you need it before moving onto circuit C.
In circuit C you’ll perform each exercise for 20 seconds, followed by a 10 second rest. Complete 4 rounds of each exercise before moving onto the next.
C1: Incline Plank Jacks
C2: Step Ups
C3: Band Press
The workout will take you around 40 minutes in total and you don’t need much space to do it at all.
