"This post wont be for everybody but since posting the pictures yesterday so many people writing to me saying they wish gyms were still open and they cant train etc. Firstly you dont need a gym to stay fit. Bodyweight excercises are just as effective as lifting weights. Some will disagree i know but try the following 2 or 3 times a week until your gyms reopen. Leg Day Deep Squats Lunges Box jumps / step up (use a low garden wall or kitchen chair for this) Jumping Squats Calf Raises. I would normally do 5 sets of 30 second sets for each of the above. 5 second rest between sets I use a weighted vest but trust me a school bag is as good. If you are finding the circuit above to easy do reps instead. 5 sets 10 reps but for each rep on the Deep Squats Lunges and jumping squats do each rep slow. Eg. 5 second down , Pause and hold for 2 second and up to starting point) Fabbers i dont work in the fitness industry and i dont think im joe wicks the bodycoach. I just enjoy to keep active. Healthy body healthy mind. If i have enough individuals who show interest to the above post i will do an upper body circuit next or ye can google bodyweight circuits and loads will show up on the web. Anyway stay safe fabbers during this terrible time & dont forget to keep your distance " Thanks for this OP, i am doing home workouts aswell, i have some small bits of equipment weights/steps, i am doing some weights baring exercises also planks/bridges, etc. But i must admit my training has been uprooted in a big way. Barely tipping away, motivation is dimishing each day on lockdown a little with household things. Of course Netflix and fab are a big distraction also lol. But i am keeping it positive and there is so many different exercises can be done at home on the spot even....  | |||

"last time i tried a box jump i near fell and busted my arse. im sticking with me squats and banded excercises lmao Been there done that myself. All a bit of fun at the end of it though ??" Maybe you could try another box jump and see if you would land on my box.... Lol  | |||
