We are cooped up and stressed out! What we need now more than ever is exercise to improve our physical strength, mental health, reduce our stress and help develop our immune system. But if you can’t leave the house, what can you do?

Great news is that there are literally hundreds of exercises you can do from home with no equipment. Let your body be your gym. Here’s some examples.

Squats, Lunges & Step-Ups

The best exercises you can do to tone your hips, buns and thighs and work your entire core at the same time and they don’t require any equipment. (Pictured here with weights, but all of these exercises are productive without weights as well.)

 

 


Bridging

Works your back side. This power packed exercise is great for strengthening your hips and thighs and you can get down on your living room floor and do it right now.

 


Pushups

Target virtually every muscle in your upper body and core. This power-packed exercise works your arms, chest, shoulders and abs in one easy to do movement. You can do them on your knees or toes or use a wall or bench for an incline to make them easier to perform.

 

 


Planking

A great exercise for your core. There are many variations and you can do them from your toes or knees, hands or elbows. Perhaps try a set on your bedroom floor before bed.


Cardio

Remember that walking is one of the best low-impact activities that you can do anywhere, with no equipment while getting some fresh air and vitamin D.
