How to lose weight simply at home if youre avoiding the gym during coronavirus – Daily Star

Just last week, a coronavirus expert warned Brits to stay away from big blokes in the gym as those who regularly pump iron could become super spreaders.

Pandemic expert Dr Norman Swan fears that gyms are the perfect place for COVID-19 to spread because there is so much sweat.

So if youre in need of a good workout to get you through this tough time, heres a simple circuit to try which could help you maintain your weight loss.

From YouTube videos to free apps and Instagram, if youre lacking inspiration you could always follow a personal trainer for ideas.

Otherwise, here are some simple moves to try at home to lose weight and burn calories.

How to do: Set your feet shoulder-width apart, toes slightly turned out. Slowly bend at the knees and drop your hips to lower your body.

You must slowly bend at the knees and drop your hips to lower your body, then at the bottom of the exercise pause for a moment and strongly push back up to the starting position.

If you want to make it harder for yourself and have some equipment at home, use weights or resistance bands.

How to do: Starting in a high plank with a flat back, lower your chest to the floor by bending your arms and sending them back at 45-degree angle.

Make sure you keep your neck in a neutral position and then push everything back up in a straight line, breathing out as you lift.

How to do: Make sure you have plenty of space when you try this. Start by standing, then jump down into a plank and quickly lowering yourself to the floor.

Push yourself up from the floor, jump your feet towards your hands as you stand up, finishing the move with another standing jump at the top.

How to do: Use a bench or a chair, place hands on the outside of your hips, fingers pointing forwards.

Then you should slowly lower your upper body down, making sure that your back is as close to the bench as possible.

Lower until your arms are at 90 degrees, then use triceps to push yourself back to the starting position.

Again, if youve got any weights lying around you could put them on your lap as you slowly lower your upper body down.

How to do: Start with your feet together and step forward, lunging with your right leg. Stand up, then repeat with your left leg.

This is a great workout to use with booty bands if you want to increase the resistance as you lunge.

How to do: The isometric core strength exercise involves maintaining a position similar to a push-up for the maximum possible time.

If youre new to planking, try it for 30 seconds then keep increasing the time to boost core strength.
