Home exercise: The eight exercises you can do while stuck in lockdown

Fitness DVDs

Ah, the humble fitness DVD! From Zumba to Davina McCall, there are so many guided workout DVDs on the market to choose from.

Think of a fitness DVD as your own virtual personal trainer but for much cheaper.

You can even follow Youtube videos for no cost at all.

Think about the kind of exercise you enjoy, as well as how much space you have to work with and your equipment.

During these gloomy times, it is important to do things that make you happy.

If you have a large living area but no equipment- why not try a dance workout DVD?

If you have a lot of equipment, try something that incorporates these.

For example, you might already have dumbbells or resistance bands.

Search on Youtube for a workout that requires these things and make the most of what you’ve got.

If space is an issue for you, try yoga, pilates, barre, or something that includes some simple floor work.
