Busy and no time to hit the gym? No problem. You can stick with your workout routine easily and get a killer workout without leaving your house! Here are five ways to workout at home.

1. Use your own body weight

Do a circuit of exercises with your own body weight. The possibilities are nearly endless – try this sequence:

20 squats

15 sit ups

10 push ups

Do this three times without resting.

2. Use dumbells

Add a pair of dumbells and you have almost all you need to get a fantastic workout at home. Now you can add resistance to do exercises like shoulder presses, bicep curls, tricep extensions, rows, and much, much more.

Start by adding in a couple sets of fifteen each of bicep curls and tricep extensions to the previously listed body weight sequence.

3. Incorporate kettlebells into the mix

Incorporating kettlebell work into your program is one of the best ways to workout at home. A single kettlebell enables you to work your entire body in a really short amount of time.

One of the most basic kettlebell exercises is the kettlebell swing. Take a look at this YouTube video of me demonstrating .

4. Jump Rope

If you need to get in some pure cardio work, jumping rope is another one of the great ways to workout at home. You can do single jumps, alternating feet jumps, hand crossover jumps, lunge jumps, double jumps – I’m no jump rope expert, these are just a few different jump rope moves that I try to mix into my routine. All I know is that after about five minutes of jumping rope I’m pretty smoked!

5. Stretch
