And whilst lots of us love going to the gym, you can’t argue that it’s not particularly convenient. Getting there, sharing equipment during rush hour, monthly fees, and not to mention cold winter mornings when you just can’t be bothered. Cue home workouts. It’s not easy to have a good routine and exercises may be confusing so if you need that extra push, we have the solution.
