One of my favorite ways to get cardio in is to do HIIT workouts. HIIT stands for High-Intensity Interval Training. High-intensity workouts have been shown to help burn fat, increase metabolism, and increase endurance. These are just a few reasons why I do these workouts. Another is that the workouts are usually shorter than most cardio. Plus, it’s a good excuse to do sprints. I was a sprinter in college, and this is an excellent way for me to get some sprinting in.
If you follow me on Instagram, you will know that I’ve had to take a couple of weeks off due to injury. This has given me time to figure out what I need when doing my home workouts. Working out at home is the only way I work out, living on an island, there are no good gyms. I’ve slowly been acquiring what I believe are essentials to getting a good sweat on at home.
Here’s my list of must-haves for good home workouts. And even better I was able to get a majority of these on Amazon!
