Practicing social distancing? Try this quick at-home workout while you're at it.
The gym doesn’t exactly scream “social distancing.” A workout in the living room while catching up on your favorite show is probably safer. Plus, I think it’s truly the best way to resist becoming a couch potato. Though the weather is warming up and a lot of people would rather take their workout to the streets, current circumstances are motivating us to break a sweat at home and near the closest piece of furniture to collapse on.
Intermediate: 1 and 1/4 Squats. Increasing time under tension. At the bottom of the squat on the return, only come up one-quarter of the way and go back down until thighs are parallel to the ground and then return all the way up to standing position. This counts as 1 rep. Advanced: Alternating split jump lunges. This is the same as traditional lunges, only when coming up from the bottom of a lunge, you’ll switch legs forward and back in the air prior to landing.Beginner: The easiest version of this would be a classic hip bridge. Lying on your back, lift your hips into the air while holding your arms flat onto the floor. Lower the hips and repeat.
