Going to the gym is not the only way to get fit and healthy

 Going to the gym is not the only way to get fit and healthy as a home workout is just as great and effective. The busy work life, rush of traffic and the added monetary cost dampens the goodwill for gym visits, not to mention the on-going COVID-19 pandemic that keeps coming in waves, limiting our outside activities to bare necessities. Keeping that in mind, let's see how we can get started on home workouts.

Pick the right reason and room

It's very important to first decide why you want to workout at home. Home workouts not only save time and money, but also give you the freedom to tailor your fitness plans according to your needs. From losing weight to bulking up on muscles, or staying healthy, make sure you choose the right kind of exercises that benefits you most.

You need to pick a room that has enough space to place at least a yoga mat, like the living room of your apartment where you can safely stretch and exercise. Any other room that has sufficient space is also okay as long as air ventilation is a top priority because it's difficult to move around in closed spaces.

Get the right equipment

The best thing about exercising at home is you can do it without any equipment at all, just a free space and maybe a pair of bluetooth headphones with a good workout playlist! But you can also get affordable gears like skipping rope, resistance bands, hand exercise balls to incorporate in your workouts, all of them costs between Tk 30 to Tk 150 each.

On the other hand, if you want to start with strength training, get dumbbells of 2 to 5 kg categories which will cost from Tk 350 to Tk 1000 and upwards. In addition, you can also get kettlebells with prices starting from Tk 1200 for the 4 kg variant.
