Build Strength with these Jefit Beginner Home Workouts

The number of people working out at home or from their apartment complex has increased since pre-pandemic. As a result, more people are keeping fit with their own version of a home workout using apps such as Jefit. Forbes reported the two most purchased items since the pandemic have been home appliances and gym equipment. From a consumer standpoint, it can be a difficult task choosing the best exercise products for home use. Hopefully, this article will shed some light on that and more.

Most Often Purchased Home Workout Equipment

ResearchAndMarkets.com previously published an article on the state of the health and wellness industry. During the pandemic lockdown, fitness equipment sales jumped by 170 percent. The equipment mentioned in their report were more big ticket items like treadmills, rowing machines and bikes. To put this in better perspective, online sales of fitness equipment from last year rose 70 percent from February to March. As a year to year comparison, sales increased 535 percent during the same period this year, according to Adobe Analytics.

The numbers below represent the increase in home exercise equipment since 2019 according to ZDNet. This is a good starting point in terms of possible products to purchase for the home, depending on needs and space requirements.

Bodyweight Home Exercise Routine for Beginners

The idea behind this home bodyweight circuit workout is to pair each two exercises together. Exercise A1 & A2, for example, are performed back-to-back before resting, then do cardio, take a breather and repeat the exercise sequence for a second set. Then transition to the next series of exercise, B1 & B2, and so forth.

A1. Exercise Band Squat, 12×2

A2. Exercise Band One-Arm Row, 12-15×2

Jump Rope 2:00

B1. Push-Ups, 12-15×2

B2. Prone Back Extension, 10×2

Jumping Jacks 1:00

C1. Forearm Plank, 30 sec. to 1:00 hold x2

C2. Glute Bridge, 12×2

Mountain Climbers, 30 sec.

D1. Bodyweight Dips, 15×2

D2. Arm Circles, 20 reps forward/20 reps backward

Perform one set of each exercise and then go back through the circuit and repeat for a second set (or round) following a 2:00 rest period. As your fitness level improves, increase to three rounds. Good Luck and Stay Strong with Jefit!
