Finding it hard to work out at home?
We all know the drill… We look forlornly in the mirror and are disappointed at what we see looking back at us and realize (again!) that we need to get fit and get back into shape – and fast!
There are a few problems with this however because as we all know, life gets in the way and we don’t always have time to get down to the gym! Also, let’s face it; the gym scene is not for everyone and especially when starting out you may just want to privately and comfortably work out at home.
The great thing about making the decision to work out at home is that even if you only have 15 minutes, there are plenty of ways that you can exercise using short, high intensity burst workouts which can be done in the comfort of your own home in just a few days a week.
Now don’t think for a minute that short, high intensity workouts won’t help you lose some weight and get fitter. Not only does every little bit help and it certainly helps more than doing nothing at all, but scientific research proves that the right combination of these burst workouts can be just as effective when it comes to increased fitness and fat loss!
Just to get you on the right track, here are a few work out at home tips that you can start to use!
Here’s your 10 Ways To Work Out At Home!
1. If you are already a Turbulence Training user, set your stopwatch for 10 or 15 minutes and try doing as many rounds as you can of the first superset of any of your favourite TT workouts. We like to use the first superset because it is the one that always packs the biggest punch!
2. Kettlebell Swings are a really great and fun exercise that totally gets your blood pumping! Try a 10 or 15 minute session of these bad boys in thirty second intervals which means exercise for 30 and then rest for 30.
3. You could also do the same but use Burpees instead of kettlebell swings. I absolutely love putting burpees in when I am designing routines to work out at home but then I realize how much I hate them when I come to that part! It is a love – hate relationship however because I know how good they are for me and the cardio workout they give is amazing!
4. Dumbbell and Body weight Fusion workouts. This is when you combine a body weight exercise with a dumbbell exercise and do them in supersets. Again use your stopwatch and see how many you can do in a 10 or 15 minute session.
5. Interval Training Workouts are always fantastic to use especially when you don’t have a lot of time. Any sort of exercise which is then complemented with an abdominals exercise such as the trusty old range of planks works great because of the extra effort created by your heavy breathing.
6. If you have a lot of equipment as well as a fair bit of space, you can also get a great 15 minute workout by pairing TRX exercises with any sort of Kettlebell movements.
7. Some of my favourite work out at home routines when I am in a hurry are my Turbulence Training Bodyweight Cardio workouts. They are a heap of fun to do and don’t require any sort of equipment at all apart from what you carry around all day! Just clear a space and get going!
8. Furthermore regarding bodyweight workouts, challenge style routines like the Bodyweight Cardio 1000 that work by actually getting you addicted to working out and ensuring you keep to your workout schedule are always great options to keep you focused and motivated!
9. Taking the standard TT superset method to the next level is a Hybrid Triset workout. It takes just a tad more equipment but basically you choose 3 exercises, a bodyweight exercise, a kettlebell or stability ball exercise and a dumbbell or barbell exercise. Do all three one after the other with no rest between exercises but have a 30 second to a minute rest at the end of the triset. Do this as many rounds as you can in the 15 minutes.
10. To really get your heart started however, have a crack at the Adrenaline circuits, again from TT! These interval training workouts combined with bodyweight exercises in short sharp bursts really gets the blood pumping and the lungs heaving – but only for fifteen minutes so it’s OK! 
Of course 10 or 15 minutes of these great exercises will see you achieve some nice results, but any time you can, try and increase your workout time to 20, 30 or even 40 minutes. Like compound interest, you will reap much higher returns!
