How to create an effective full-body workout in quarantine, according to personal trainers

By ITS Education Asia


Just because your kids are stuck at home doesn’t mean they should stop exercising. Here are some tips provided by Gabby Landverk from Business Insider on how to create an effective full body workout at home.

While a home workout can't replace an intense bodybuilding session of pumping iron, there are plenty of ways to work up a sweat in your living room, according to certified personal trainer Bryan Goldberg.

"You don't need a gym to be fit unless you're a hardcore weight-lifter," Goldberg told Insider. "The average person can get fit and stay fit in the confines of their bunker."

“With burpees, your goal is to not die. Just finish."

Air squats, for example, can be done just about anywhere and by anyone, Goldberg said. Those, along with mountain climbers, lunges, push-ups (or variations to make them easier or harder) are the basic body weight exercise to combine into various workouts. 

Also try to get creative about using household items as fitness tools.

Stretching is always important, to improve flexibility.

Don’t forget about keeping up good habits such as like hand-washing, getting plenty of sleep, and eating healthy.
