The living room usually has a mood-brightening atmosphere and all the entertainment options that will pump you up for the workout. Also, the Living room is the most frequently visited area of the house; putting your Gym equipment there will give you the ease of access. Though it may not be a dedicated area to exercise, it’s all you need to keep your workout routine intact and on top of your mind every day. Start by defining an area in your living room either visually or physically. For example, you can put a pretty rug to keep all your equipment and kit for the workout. Put some aesthetic mirrors or motivational posters in that area to go well with your living room ambience.

When choosing your equipment for workouts, choose them according to your needs. With a hectic lifestyle and rising stress levels, your heart is suffering the most. Start your everyday routine with cardio, and for that, you can get either a foldable treadmill, an indoor cycle, or a cross-trainer. After good cardio, you need strength training tools for your joints and your muscles. Get a set of dumbbells and kettlebells. Put a routine chart in your workout area that you will follow religiously, or consult a professional trainer to design a custom workout chart for your needs. And finally, get an exercise mat because no workout is complete without stretching and some yoga.

You don’t need to sweat for 3 hours in a gym to keep yourself healthy and fit. That’s for professional athletes. You only need a daily routine of basic exercises that you can comfortably do in your living room. It’s much more comfortable, and you can focus better. Motivation for self-care and keeping yourself healthy comes from within. Even in a gym, you may get motivated to work out by looking at others, but it won’t last long. True change comes from within. And in today’s world, self-care is more than healthy living; It’s a survival instinct. You owe it to yourself.
