Being stuck at home doesn’t mean we need to skip our workout routine. Fitness coach Helle Hammonds has three intense 30-minute workouts that you can do at home. With the UK in lockdown due to the coronavirus, we’re limited to leaving the house just once a day for exercise, so finding effective home workouts is more important than ever.
These workouts are not only designed to get your heart rate up but also to make you sweat and feel slightly sore the next day. If you’re up for a challenge, try the Healthista 30-day home workout program. These sessions are created and led by Helle Hammonds, known for her motivational skills and professional sculpting techniques.
