3 Free At-Home Workouts I'm Loving This Lockdown

28.4.20

I've always been someone who's very all or nothing when it comes to fitness and working out. I'm either hitting the gym most days or I'm going months without ever breaking out into a run. Yes, I know it's not ideal, but the last few days I've been trying to break myself back into the exercise scene. I mean, for one, I can't use not having the time as an excuse anymore! Now, I know options are very limited, particularly for those who don't have access to any equipment - like myself - so I thought I'd show you my three favourite at-home workouts I've been doing this lockdown. They are all free and can be done right from your lounge/anywhere with a bit of floor space! 

3 Free At-Home Workouts I'm Loving This Lockdown that require no equipment!


3 Free At-Home Workouts I'm Loving This Lockdown

Yoga by Adriene

If you've ever even considered doing any sort of at-home yoga I'm sure you will already have heard of Adriene. She is the YouTube yoga queen and for very good reason. I find her videos are really easy to follow along with, her voice is super relaxing and she has playlists for all sorts of abilities, workout lengths and yoga goals. 

I tend to wake up, roll out of bed and follow one of her morning yoga videos in my pjs, on my bedroom floor. I don't have a yoga mat, but thankfully the floors in my house are carpeted so it's not too solid to lie on. When I don't feel like jumping around and over-exerting myself, a nice morning yoga sequence is my go-to!


Heather Robertson

Of all of the workout channels I've ever found, I think Heather's is my favourite. She has workouts with no equipment, no repeats and always gets straight into the workout. One of my pet peeves is when a workout video starts with a 7-minute chat about the weather, I mean, I like getting straight into the workout before I get bored and click off and get back into bed! Some of Heather's workouts are less than ten minutes (great for when you can't really be bothered but want to have done something) and she also has a free 12-week fitness plan if you fancy something a little more long-term! 


MadFit

Now, I don't know about you but learning TikTok dances doesn't come very naturally to me (anyone who knows me in real life is probably nodding their head so viciously they might cause some internal damage) but, I do still love a boogie as much as the next person. MadFit has a playlist of videos that are workouts to popular songs including one 15 minute dance party video which is allll of the best songs from the noughties. I don't know about you, but dancing around my room feels like way less of a workout than 100 burpees but is often is just as exhausting! 


And there we have it, three of my favourite at-home workouts... ps I'm by no means saying that you need to be using your free time to work out, this is just something I've been trying to get into as part of my lockdown routine and thought I'd share, just in case anyone else was interested in doing the same!

  4. I love Madfit! Her workouts are challenging and I've done so many of her videos. Her short song challenges are so fun! I've also discovered barre workouts since the beginning of lockdown and they're super fun. There are loads on YouTube, but I like CoachKel, she does easy barre moves but that will make you feel the burn!

  5. Home workouts are one of my favourite things to do during isolation at this time. One of my favourite youtubers to watch is Emi Wong.
