Just because we’re stuck at home doesn’t mean we can skip Workout Wednesday! Health coach Helle Hammonds has put together three intense 30-minute workouts you can do at home that’ll definitely make you sweat.
So, the UK is officially on lockdown for at least three weeks due to the coronavirus. We can only go outside once a day for exercise, or we might get fined. Well, there goes our plan to take multiple jogs around the block just to get some fresh air.
Now, more than ever, we need effective home workouts to keep our heart rates up and leave us feeling a good kind of sore the next day.
Feeling up for a challenge? The Healthista 30-day workout challenge kicks off today. Fitness coach Helle Hammonds, known for her motivational skills and effective sculpting techniques, has created these high-intensity workouts just for us.
Try these three home workouts over the next few days and share your progress with us on Instagram by tagging @HealthistaTV.
