]]>Doing exercises incorrectly isn’t only hurting your progress, but it can also lead to pain and injury. It’s difficult to correct your form when you don’t have anyone to tell you what you’re doing wrong, and that’s why you should consider booking at least one session with a certified trainer or do your training in front of a mirror.
It’s very common for people to put less effort into their home workouts because there isn’t anyone watching. If you’re doing the same thing, try to change your mindset by imagining your workout is taking place at the crowded gym even when you’re alone at home.
Working out is one of the main components of a healthy lifestyle, but it’s not the only one. It’s also important to have a healthy diet and stay on the move throughout the day, and if you’re only working out to make up for not doing any of these things, it’s time for something to change.

]]>While cardio is a lot easier to do at home, you need to also incorporate resistance training with bodyweight or weights. Some exercises to try are squats, lunges, planks, and deadlifts.
Make sure you continue challenging yourself with the weights you are lifting, but don’t lift too much that your form starts to suffer. Sure, you can increase your reps with less weight, but you won’t see results as quickly as you would if you were lifting heavier weights.
You don’t need to train every day to build muscle, but you should strength train at least two times a week. Train on nonconsecutive days and the workout should have eight to 10 exercises targeting different muscles.
While a person should be consuming .35 grams of protein per pound of body weight per day, if you’re trying to increase muscle mass, you need to consume .5 to .8 grams of protein per pound of body weight.
After intense exercise sessions, your body needs 24 to 48 hours to repair itself. You can still workout between these rest sessions by focusing on different muscle groups. During these rest periods, you should be doing activities like yoga, foam rolling, and stretching.

]]>Even though you’re not going out to exercise, wearing good and comfortable shoes is a must. They should be designed for the activity you’ll be doing, whether that’s running on the treadmill, riding the stationary bike, or doing yoga.
Never start a workout without warming up. Warming up your muscles and joints is the best way to prevent injuries that may happen from sudden movements. It’s also important to cool down after you finish so your body can adjust.
You can’t come up with more space than you actually have, but it’s important to have enough room to move, especially on a cardio machine. Don’t risk bumping into sharp objects like table edges and doorknobs. Don’t exercise on the bare floor as you can slip; stand on a mat instead.

]]>If your schedule is always packed and you don’t have a lot of time for training, find exercises that fit into your busy lifestyle. Look for shorter, full-body workouts, because focusing on a single muscle group may lead to overload and injuries.
Don’t overestimate yourself when it comes to home workouts, especially since you won’t have a trainer by your side. Look for videos that fit your current fitness levels, preferably ones with clear instructions so you wouldn’t end up performing exercises with bad form.
If you live in a tiny apartment, look for workouts that don’t require too much space. Also, search for equipment-free workouts if you don’t have any equipment at home or can’t afford to buy it right now.

]]>Dumbbells are probably the easiest item to replace. Simply fill two bags with rice or beans or, even simpler, take two bottles of water.
Pantyhose are stretchy so if you tie them in a loop you can get resistance bands that will work just like the ones in the gym!
A bag of laundry detergent is great for the exercises that require a medicine ball. You can do many different things with it, from overheat situps to Russian twist.

]]>You don’t need any equipment and you can simply put on your favorite tunes and wear your ugliest gym clothes in the comfort of your own home. Here are 5 great exercises for you to do at home and feel great after.
Stand straight with your legs a little wider than hip-width apart. You want to make sure your knees are in line with your toes when you go down. Squat down and then straighten to start position, squeezing your glutes at the top. Do 3 sets for 15 reps.
Stand with your feet together and then take one leg back behind you. Bend the back leg and go up and down on that leg holding the core and squeezing the glutes on each rep. Do 3 sets for 12 reps on each leg.
This exercise works on all of your body but mostly your core. Go down on to your elbows, on a comfortable surface, straighten your legs and flex the feet. Engage your abs and glutes and keep the back straight. Keep the plank for 30 seconds-1 minute.
This exercise can be done on your knees if you find it too difficult to do with straight legs. Make sure the core is engaged at all times and the hands are slightly wider than shoulder-width apart. Start in a straight arm plank then bend the elbows back, not out, and go down with the chest to the floor. Push up through the arms and chest to start position. Do 3 sets for 10-12 reps.
Lie flat on your back with your knees bent and the feet flat on the floor. Squeeze your glutes and bring the hips up and down in a controlled manner. Do 3 sets for 15 reps.

]]>At the beginning of the year, gyms have deals on memberships, but you can always stream workout sites for more affordable options. Home gyms are usually more cost-effective as you’re investing in products like free weights or treadmills that can be used over time.
Anyone who’s new to the gym knows how intimidating walking into the gym for the first time can be. You may feel more confident going to the gym if you’ve already started working out at home.
If you’re looking to use a lot of equipment especially cardio machines like ellipticals, rowing machines, and stair masters, gyms are a better option. Just make sure you hit the gym at a time when it’s not too crowded.
Between travel time, parking, and waiting for machines, the hour you hope to spend at the gym can quickly turn into almost two hours. Home workouts are better if you have a tight schedule and you’re worried about finding time to exercise.
By spending the money on a gym membership, it may increase your motivation to go to the gym. There are lots of distractions at home that make it hard to get the most out of your workout or even workout at all.
