3 Easy Daily Exercises You Can Do at Home Without Equipment

 3 Easy Daily Exercises You Can Do at Home Without Equipment

Fitness doesn't have to involve going to a gym, purchasing expensive equipment or spending hours working out. All that sometimes is needed is a bit of space at home and 15-30 minutes of your day.

If you're a complete beginner, a busy professional, a student or just looking to get more active, simple home exercises can help you make a difference. It's consistency that is key. Don't have to exercise 100% of the time each day. All you have to do is keep on moving!

Here are 10 simple, at-home exercises that don't require any equipment. Most of them can be done in your bedroom, living room, balcony, or any open area where it's safe to do them.

Note: If injured, have a medical condition, or not exercising for a long period of time, consult a qualified healthcare professional and/or health expert before beginning a new exercise program. If sharp pain, dizziness or unusual discomfort occurs: STOP.

1. Walking in Place

• Walking is one of the easiest forms of exercise to do.
• You don't have to venture outdoors. While staying in one position walk by lifting the knees lightly, keeping the arm motion natural.
• Begin at a moderate rate, at 2 - 5 minutes. Repeat the procedure, increasing the time as needed until comfortable.
• This is particularly beneficial for those that sit for a lot of the day at their desk. Even short breaks in sitting, between work sessions, can help reduce length of time sitting.

2. Bodyweight Squats

• Squats are an easy-to-perform move that engages multiple muscles in the lower body.
• Place your feet about shoulder width apart. Sit on a chair as you bend the knees, keep your back comfortable. Next stand back up.
• If you're new to squats, don't be concerned in how low you go. Practice controlled movements.
• Try 8 to 12 repetitions to begin with.
• A useful tip is to imagine that there is an invisible chair behind you. This can facilitate the understanding of the movement.

3. Wall Push-Ups

• When you're just beginning, regular pushups can be challenging. Wall Push Ups are much easier to do.
• Facing a wall, position hands on wall at chest level. Slowly bend elbows and lower upper body towards wall. Slowly lean back.
• Try 8 to 15 repetitions.
• As this becomes easier, you can then move onto push-ups on a firm table or other appropriate surface and then finally onto floor pushups.

Final Thoughts

• It's not necessary to be a gym member with expensive equipment to be more active. These 3 simple daily exercises at home are easy and will create simple, basic exercise routine with little equipment and space required.
• Do exercises that are easy at first and build up gradually; listen to what your body is telling you. More important, make moving a part of your everyday life and not just a short term objective.
