There are some simple strategies you can utilize if you want to have the most effective workout at home. HIIT workouts give you a chance to do achieve great results in a short amount of time and that’s why we love them. Here’s how to make every workout high-intensity when exercising at home.
Use a Timer
There are useful apps that help you set timer for activity and breaks. They can notify you with a sound when you should start and stop, so you don’t have to look at the phone and can focus on the exercises. Check out Interval Timer, Tabata Timer, and more.
Combination Movements
Depending on what you want to achieve, you may choose to focus on specific movements that isolate particular muscles, but combination movements are great for increasing the intensity of your workout and elevating your heart rate. We’re talking about movements like lunges, squats, rows, deadlifts, etc.
Add Intervals to Other Workouts
When you do workouts that aren’t necessarily high-intensity, such as running, you can add intervals to make things more interesting and challenging. Try sprinting for a minute then running normally for three minutes, or measure the distance instead of the time.
