I’m a big fan of the at home workout. No, it’s not ideal. I love the focus that going to a gym provides. You can’t be distracted by the laundry or the kitchen. However, life is rarely ideal, so we choose to make the best of less than perfect situations. Hence, the home workout. Go outside, throw some rubber matting in the garage or rock the basement or living room. Put your headphones in, get your gameface on and CHOOSE to give yourself an effective workout. Build some strength with this simple and awesome workout. Do it 3x a week till it’s too easy. Then we’ll do something else. Simple.

Repeat the whole workout twice or three times if you are able. Skip for another 15-25 minutes depending on your ability level. This is a fun, easy total body workout containing great cardiovascular development and strength building.
