How to lose weight without a gym

You don't have to go to the gym to stay in shape. We are sure that in every home there is simple sports equipment that can be used for training. Look in the closet, under the bed or on the mezzanine, and you will understand what we are talking about! Keeping yourself in shape without spending a penny is a great idea!

Many things that have long been collecting dust in the far corners of the apartment can be used for training. The main thing is your desire!

Yoga mat

If you have this item, it means you were once into yoga. It's time to return to what you once loved! Start with a few basic poses and later move on to more complex ones. By doing yoga, you rebuild your body to a normal mode of operation, which means that in the end you can even lose weight!

Sports balls

No one to play ball with? Do it yourself! Lying on your back, grasp the ball with your feet. Raise your legs straight with it and return to the starting position. Repeat 10 times. This is a great exercise for the abs.

And this exercise will make your legs slender. Stand straight with your feet together. Take the ball in your hands and lift it above your head. Take a long step with your left foot to the left while squatting on your right leg. Tilt your hands with the ball to the left, tilt your body after them. Return to the starting position. Take a step to the right, squatting on your left leg, and follow the ball to the right. Take your time. Repeat 8 times in each direction.

Rollers

To get results from roller skating, you need to train for 30 to 60 minutes. But can this entertainment be called training?! By roller skating, you develop your gluteal and thigh muscles, ankles and calves. Since the body is subjected to aerobic stress, you don’t have to worry about an over-pumped body. Long skiing at an intense pace burns fat perfectly!

Dumbbells

Regardless of whether your dumbbells are heavy or light, you can use them for your workouts. There are about two hundred different exercises that can be done with dumbbells. To ensure that your workout with dumbbells is aimed specifically at burning fat, take light weight dumbbells - so that you can work with them at a fast pace. But to work on individual problem areas (for example, when you need to tighten sagging buttocks or chest), use heavier dumbbells - ones with which you can do no more than 6-15 repetitions of one exercise.

Stretching: a set of exercises for stretching the body

Bike

Cycling can burn up to 500 calories per hour. But that's just one reason to pedal. During a bicycle ride, the leg muscles are strengthened and their endurance increases, and the activity of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems improves. In addition, a large amount of fat is burned, fat deposits in the thighs are reduced. In this case, cycling should become regular and last at least 45 minutes.

Tennis racquet

Typically, tennis is a game of two or four people. But if you wish, you can train alone. All you need to do is find a wall. Such activities will allow you to always stay in good sports shape. Your muscles will be toned if you actively fight with an imaginary opponent. It won't take more than 15-20 minutes a day, and the result will be noticeable very soon.

Hula Hup

One week of regular hula hoop training helps reduce your waist size by one centimeter or more. However, hula hoop exercises allow you to train not only your waist, but also other muscles of the lower half of the body (buttocks, hips, legs), as well as shoulders, arms, and back. When exercising every day, you need to gradually increase the intensity. Choose rhythmic music for this, then your mood will be high!

Jump rope

Jumping rope may seem like child's play, but boxers say there is no better exercise machine! And all because jumping over a rope works the whole body.
