Aerobic exercise at home can be easy if you have the right equipment. For those of us who have nothing but our tennis shoes, at-home workouts can sometimes feel a little tricky. Here are some ideas to help you get started:
-Do jumping jacks.
-Jump rope. Don’t have one? Swing an imaginary jump rope and jump like you would if you were holding a real one.
-Run or jog in place. Instead of lounging on the couch, try this while you’re watching TV.
-Turn your living room into a dance floor. Crank up your favorite music and dance around. 🎶
