Tips to get the most out of your at-home workout

  • Mix it up: This isn’t just to avoid boredom, but also to ensure you have a well-rounded routine that includes cardio, strength and flexibility training
  • Stick to a schedule: You probably go to your classes or sessions at the same time every week, so make a commitment to continue doing that. Find a time that works for you, or break up your exercise into manageable chunks throughout the day
  • Motivate from a distance: Talk to your friends about how you’re keeping fit, share at-home workout videos, tips and ideas, exercise virtually together. Encourage everyone you know to keep moving!
