TOP EXERCISES TO DO AT HOME.

keep it simple, stick to the basics.

So many options, so many fads and information. I know it can be extremely overwhelming. Where do I start? What do I need ? How can I work out without Equipment? You are NOT alone. These are common questions I come across.

KEEP IT SIMPLE

1. Lunges

Challenging your balance is an essential part of a well-rounded exercise routine. Lunges do just that, promoting functional movement, while also increasing strength in your legs and glutes.

  1. Start by standing with your feet shoulder-width apart and arms down at your sides.
  2. Take a step forward with your right leg and bend your right knee as you do so, stopping when your thigh is parallel to the ground. Ensure that your right knee doesn’t extend past your right foot.
  3. Push up off your right foot and return to the starting position. Repeat with your left leg. This is one rep.

2. Pushups

Still one of the top dogs in the fitness industry.

  1. Start in a plank position. Your core should be tight, shoulders pulled down and back, and your neck neutral.
  2. Bend your elbows and begin to lower your body down to the floor. When your chest grazes it, extend your elbows and return to the start. Focus on keeping your elbows close to your body during the movement.
  3. Focus on engaging your core by bringing your belly button in towards your spine.
  4. Make sure to exhale on the way up

3. Squats

Squats increase lower body and core strength, as well as flexibility in your lower back and hips. Because they engage some of the largest muscles in the body, they also pack a major punch in terms of calories burned.

1. Take a wide stance (shoulder width apart)

2. Put your hands out in front of you for balance

3. Sit back as if you were sitting in a chair keeping your feet flat on the floor and your knees behind your toes.

4. As you are sitting back keep your chest up and your head looking forward

These are my Top 3 simple exercises you can do anywhere. No equipment?? No excuses.

Always consult a physician before starting an exercise routine .

Exercising anywhere can help reduce body fat and lower blood pressure and cholesterol levels. Exercise can also go a long way in stress reduction and mental health.
