I am sure a lot of you are struggling without the gym but I can assure you that you can get an excellent workout at home. Some of our most well-known clients use virtual personal training with us, just using bodyweight, as it can be so effective.

If you read these pages regularly, you will know I am an avid strength training fan.

Why? Because at age 41, strength training is the fountain of youth.

It has changed my shape, improving it by adding enough muscle to look lean yet not bulky, creating balance in the body and improving my fitness levels. I generally use a mixture of weights and bodyweight depending on time and where I’m training.

This week, I focussed on bodyweight training in the garden with a mixture of bodyweight and weights workouts.

Funnily enough, it was the bodyweight workouts that have really pushed me to my limit, which always reminds me just how tough bodyweight can be.

Repeat each exercise for 15 reps or 15 reps on each side. Complete all four exercises — this is one set. Aim for 3-4 sets.

Press up

Start on knees or toes with hands under chest and back flat in the plank position. Lower yourself to the ground, then back to start position. Keep the back flat throughout.

Reverse lunge

Stand upright with your arms straight.

Take a step backwards, dropping your back knee to the floor and leaning your torso slightly forward with your weight on your front leg.


Push off your front foot to return to the start position.

In & out squat

Start in semi-squat position with feet wider than shoulder-width apart, jump into the air changing your foot direction to split squat, before landing then dipping toward the floor and then jumping back to a squat position and completing a squat, repeating as you go.

Plank jacks

Start on your toes and hands with your arms straight back flat and your feet together. Then jump your feet out to the sides without moving hand position. Immediately jump back to the middle and repeat. Keep your back flat throughout.

Cocooner’s corner

Never move beyond what is comfortable and move steadily and carefully. Always check with your GP before beginning any new exercise regime. Do two to three times daily

Seated squat

Start with your feet hip- to shoulder-width apart and arms crossed or down by your side. Sit back and down to a chair and then simply push through the heels to return to the start position. If you need support, choose a chair with arms and hold for balance. If you prefer, you can begin in the sitting position. Repeat 8-12 times

Hamstring stretch

Stand upright with your arms by your sides. Bend forward at the waist, lowering your hands towards the floor, or as close to the floor as you can; stop at your knees or calves if you need to. Keep legs straight and don’t jerk or bounce. Hold for as long as is comfortable.

Hammer curl

Start by holding two bottles of water with your palms facing your body and slowly pull them up, keeping your elbows close to the body by your side. Return to start position and repeat for 10-12 reps.
