Full Body At Home Workout

Here’s a full routine (full video at the bottom) that requires no equipment whatsoever.

It can be done with a minimum of floor space, indoors or out. While some of the techniques are tough, most everything can be scaled for all abilities.

Make sure you properly warm up before attempting this workout.

For a warmup, I recommend doing some joint rotations (main ones listed below) followed by something that will get your heart rate up a little (jump rope, running on the spot, jumping jacks, treadmill, etc.)

  • Wrist circles
  • Elbow circles
  • Arm circles
  • Neck rotations
  • Upper torso rotations
  • Hip circles
  • Knee circles
  • Ankle circles

I’ve made the video so you can follow along. Most of the techniques are done in supersets, meaning you’ll alternate several exercises, back to back. Once you finish the superset, just press pause on the video and try them yourself.

Here’s the full routine written out for you:

  1. SUPERSET 3 TIMES:
    1. Forward Lunges 10 per side
    2. Cossack Squats 5 per side
  2. SUPERSET 3 TIMES:
    1. Hindu Squats 15
    2. Groiners 10
  3. THREE SETS OF:
    1. Bootstrappers 15
  4. SUPERSET 3 TIMES:
    1. Hindu Pushups 7
    2. Supine Leg Raises 12
  5. SUPERSET 3 TIMES:

    2. Supine Hollow Body Hold 20 seconds

  7. SUPERSET 3 TIMES:

Beginner At-Home Workout

Stuck at home and feeling the need to move more? Why not work on your strength and mobility? It doesn’t have to take long — and you don’t need specialized equipment.

Here’s a simple follow-along workout that you can do for 3 to 5 cycles.

Warm up with some joint mobility (mobility can be done daily).

We’ll be doing the following 4 basic techniques:

  • Bodyweight Squats
  • Pushups
  • Banded or PVC Deadlifts
  • Bodyweight Plank Rows

Perform 10 reps of each exercise, once you’ve warmed up with the joint mobility shown in at the start. Once you’re done, rest for 1-2 minutes and repeat for 3 to 5 cycles.
