Just because we’re all stuck at home doesn’t mean we have to skip Workout Wednesday. Fitness coach Helle Hammonds is here to help us stay active with three intensive workouts you can do in just 30 minutes.
With the UK now on lockdown for at least three weeks due to the coronavirus, we can only leave our homes once a day for exercise, or we risk a fine. So, to help everyone stay fit, effective home workouts that get our heart rate up and leave us feeling accomplished are more needed than ever.
Looking for a challenge? Healthista has partnered with Helle Hammonds to bring you a 30-day home workout challenge. These workouts are designed to be quick, efficient, and result-driven. Helle is known for her motivational style and effective sculpting techniques. Try these three home workouts over the next few days and share your progress with us on Instagram @HealthistaTV.
