Three Easy At-Home Workouts

It’s no secret that physical exercise is a very important component of mental wellbeing, let alone all-around bodily health. To get started, take it back to basics or turn to YouTube for simple and fun workouts that you can do from the comfort of your Highlands Ranch apartment, no matter your skill level. Here are some ideas for at-home workouts that’ll get your blood pumping and adrenaline flowing.

Bodyweight Exercises

Let’s take it all the way back to gym class. Sit-ups, push-ups, planks, wall sits, lunges, jumping jacks — these are all effective and simple exercises to get you started. You don’t need any equipment other than your own body and a comfortable workout outfit. A quick search on YouTube will give you hundreds of results for bodyweight workouts for any experience level. This workout video from LuLuLemon features both high- and low-intensity exercises and is a great place to start.

Dance It Out

Not only is dancing lots of fun, but it’s also a great cardio exercise. Put on your favorite tunes and get moving! If you want a little more structure in your dancing workout, check out YouTube videos from POPSUGAR Fitness for energizing Zumba-esque sessions, or learn some basic jazz or hip-hop moves.

Yoga

Yoga is a great way to take care of your body and mind. Get your blood flowing and center yourself with Yoga with Adriene on Youtube. Adriene offers yoga videos that are great for all experience levels. If you don’t have a yoga mat, don’t worry — you can make do with a soft towel or rug.

After you’ve enjoyed one of these at-home workouts, treat yourself to a delicious meal or curl up with a new book, all from the comfort of your Legacy at Highlands Ranch apartment. Contact us today to learn more about our community.
