If lockdown(s) and tier regulations have meant that you’ve missed out on time at the gym, mat work and strength training recently, never fear – because there’s a lot you can at home. Many exercises don’t even need weights or bands and instead simply use your own body weight to maximise effort. Get your metabolism racing with these at-home exercises; they’ll have you jumping, pedalling, pushing, climbing and lunging to new heights of fitness.
