I will begin this post by acknowledging the fact that at some point or another, I have already written a post about my own at-home workout routine. As of late, however, I have had a few people asking me to share it with them, and for this reason, combined with the fact I have made some tweaks and modifications to it over the years, I thought this would serve as an opportunity to update said at-home workout routine and share it with all of you.
For this workout routine, you don’t need any equipment. But, I do recommend a mat of some sort for the ab component so you don’t destroy your back on a hard floor.
I’ve broken my workout routine up into three main categories: arms, legs and abs. I do this daily, but keep in mind that if you’re new to exercising, you may not be able to complete my entire routine, and that is absolutely okay. Go at your own pace.
