My At-Home Essential Workout Kit

Are you interested in my Tone Up classes but prefer the convenience of working out from home? Whether you're joining us in person or online via Zoom, you can achieve fantastic results with just a few essential pieces of equipment. Here's my suggested at-home workout kit to help you get started:

Dumbbells (3kg, 4kg, 5kg staples)

Dumbbells are a versatile and essential part of any home workout kit. They allow you to perform a wide range of exercises targeting different muscle groups, making them perfect for both strength training and toning.

Where to buy: Argos offer a great selection of dumbbells at competitive prices, making it easy to find the right weights for your needs without breaking the bank. https://www.argos.co.uk/search/dumbells/?clickOrigin=searchbar:home:auto:dumb:dumbells

Fabric Resistance Bands

Resistance bands are excellent for adding variety and intensity to your workouts. They are especially useful for lower body exercises, helping to target and tone muscles in your hips, glutes and legs.

Why fabric bands? Fabric resistance bands are more durable and comfortable than plastic ones. They are less likely to roll up or snap, providing a more reliable and effective workout experience.

Where to buy: Best place is Amazon! https://www.amazon.co.uk/Elvire-Sport-Resistance-Exercise-Physiotherapy/dp/B07NK18M4J/ref=sr_1_7?crid=39YNRPOZVV2RI&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.3SEQssC6dUbFHRB9RDkAZBUIb6pGxW256SwDEajCQlZ7tcUatol4uCxam6-5R8-V9auQD_JK6pKXzr6ztI09lb_xrEgpt4Db3JXbj5VPZmllvPS9GuXwn8AOBheXy7o3gfL7IjwiTrh8W5vWJp_8yUw1Da3Na_nMFhhF7n9vQrd4TfVB_ktqZJbyOd9N6CKqk4KdNCDVb_PLrcO0uQ1rpTKRrQJNgh2aS8PntWddCpbVJYEuzmdlIOE8OxygOiDEj7xDOebhKfZqAOchWrA6t0t9koJpqMiC-tlMMRbchM0.Fwd0uFJqLfcqzcMByAzUTsaBYAYF9E0wO06lvgyp018&dib_tag=se&keywords=fabric%2Bresistance%2Bbands&qid=1717864809&sprefix=fabric%2Bresistance%2Caps%2C78&sr=8-7&th=1

A Comfortable Mat

A good quality exercise mat is essential for providing comfort and support during floor exercises. Whether you're doing pilates, yoga or strength training, a comfortable mat will protect your joints and make your workout more enjoyable.

Features to look for: Choose a mat that is thick enough to provide cushioning but not so thick that it affects your balance. It should be non-slip to ensure safety during your workouts.

Where to buy: My recommendation albeit on the pricier side would be Lululemon 5mm mat - It will last you a lifetime! https://www.lululemon.co.uk/en-gb/p/the-mat-5mm-made-with-fsc™-certified-rubber/prod10990033.html?dwvar_prod10990033_color=61911
