But I hate the gym….

Dude – me, too. That’s why I workout in the privacy of my own home. Now, there are many of you who L-O-V-E the gym. COVID has closed many gyms and alienated a lot of those denizens, leaving them looking for a way to get a great burn. Look no further than your own home.

Gym equipment is super hard to find these days, so here are a few easy ways to make your own resistance.

Obvious choice, free weights/dumbbells. If you can get your hands on these then GREAT! I have a full set that I use daily. If you can’t find any, let’s explore your options:

Fill a milk jug (8.6 lbs)

Cat litter bag (check the bag itself, but you are looking at 10-40 lbs)

Jug of laundry detergent (about 8 lbs per gallon!!)

Gas grill propane tank (a full tank weighs about 37 lbs)

RESISTANCE BANDS are the BOMB

I HIGHLY recommend getting resistance bands for an easy and SUPER EFFECTIVE workout. You can find these online but I recommend the ones from FASTer Way because they have attachments that make it possible to do all sorts of gym inspired moves. Check them out here: FASTer Way Strength Bands
