In this blog post, I will talk about my favorite home workouts. Even if I have 2 gym memberships, from time to time I still like to have a sweaty workout at home.
I worked out at home for many years. I started working out at home when I was a young teenager, with a book by Jane Fonda, (if you are curious about the exercises, I found a video here).
In my late 20s, I tried Jillian Michaels’s workouts, and in the past years, I tried A LOT of home workouts.
I home-trained so much, that I decided to share with y’all my favorite workouts because there is good stuff out there – you don’t need a gym to have a badass workout.
Why I love working out at home
- Can give amazing results.
- Is cheaper.
- Doesn’t involve going out.
- You can go straight to shower, in your house.
- You can exercise anytime, and a small space is required.
- Nobody is watching you, besides family or pets.
My essentials from working out from home
Here are my essentials for a proper home workout:
- Mat: don’t save money on the mat, you need a good one, that will stay in place. Gamechanger.
- Dumbbell set: If you have money and space to invest, I suggest you a full set.
- Elastic bands: for booty gains, trust the elastic band.
- Fitbit: This is essential to my life, not only during my workouts. It keeps track of my exercise, steps, calories burned, and much more.
- Jump rope: I have to use it often, I admit it, but the jump rope is one of my favorite tools to use in the summer.
