If you’re in need of some inspiration for your at-home workouts, use our workouts as a starting point. We are giving you some basic exercises and different ways to turn them into a workout. To spice it up, use your own favorite exercises to customize our plan.
Warm Up
To prevent injury, be sure to warm up properly. Try some dynamic stretches or general movements, like a brisk walk.
Choose Your Exercises
Push Up: Enter a high plank position and steadily lower your chest to the ground. Push through your palms to end in the high plank position.
Squat: Place your feet shoulder-width apart. Keep your toes outwards as you lower your booty. Push through your heels to come up.
Tricep Dip: Sit on a surface a few feet off the ground. Scoot your booty off, and bend your elbows to lower your body. Push back up.
Plank: Enter a low plank position on your elbows. Keep your core tight and tuck your pelvis up into your belly button. Hold.
Pick a Format
Circuit: Do each exercise for 15-30 repetitions with little rest in between exercises. Repeat the whole circuit 4-6 times for a complete and efficient workout.
HIIT: Complete as many repetitions of each exercises as possible in a set amount of time, followed by a short period of rest. For example, 30 seconds of work with 10 seconds of rest before moving onto the next exercises. Repeat.
AMRAP: Short for “as many reps as possible,” this method is a doozy. Complete repetitions until failure before moving onto the next exercise. Rest in between each cycle and repeat.
