Top Tips For Staying Fit At Home Stuck at home? Need to keep fit? Here are some tips from qualified personal trainer Mike Smith. His local business, Happy Sports and Fitness, offers support and services which promote healthy living. Here are his top five tips on staying fit and healthy at home. Plan and progress your workouts. Firstly, set aside some time to complete your workout. Knowing what exercises and when you are going to complete them is important. If you state that you will exercise later, it usually ends up with non-completion or
a reduced time and effort on task. Motivation is of course important, but when the motivation is absent, self-discipline with organised activity will win the day. Know what you want to achieve and when you are going to complete it. If you can track activities and progress your workout over a period of time, then this is very rewarding and gives the process a sense of purpose. For example, if you can currently plank for twenty seconds, why not set a target of being able to plank for a whole minute within the next two weeks? You don’t want to be completing the same exercises in six months time from now as they will be ineffective. Progressively increase either time, repetition, weight or intensity of each exercise over time.
