Just Relocated? Simple Tips to Stay in Shape in Your New Home

More and more people are opting to exercise at home, especially over the past couple of years with so many fitness options available. If you’ve started home workouts, you know it takes some discipline and a dedicated space (and maybe equipment if you want).

Moving to a new house is stressful, and you don’t want to add to that stress by not having a way to exercise. So, we’ve got some great tips to help you maximize your home workouts in your new place.

First off, it’s crucial to keep your mind healthy along with your body, especially during something as stressful as moving. Making the move as smooth as possible can help reduce stress. There are lots of online resources to help, from finding the best mortgage deals through advisers like Trussle, to websites that list the top schools in your new area. Start on the right foot, and we’ll help you set up your new home for effective workouts.

If you’re new to fitness, you’ll be glad to know that you don’t need much more than some open space for many workouts. This is perfect when you haven’t unpacked yet. Even if you do want to use equipment, there are easy ways to incorporate it into your new home.

Physical fitness includes five main areas that you can tackle without ever needing to visit a gym.

Cardiovascular endurance is all about activities that get your heart pumping, and it’s the easiest fitness form to achieve at home:

When you think about building muscular strength, weightlifting probably comes to mind. You can buy weights for home use, but beginners don’t need to go that far. Household items like paint cans, filled gallon jugs, and laundry detergent boxes can serve as makeshift weights.

For muscular endurance, simple exercises like push-ups, squats, and sit-ups are highly effective and require no equipment.

Improving flexibility is easy with just a phone and yoga mat. You can follow countless yoga or pilates videos on YouTube. Plus, after moving, you’ll have plenty of empty counters and surfaces to practice stretches.

Body composition refers to the percentage of fat, muscle, and bone in your body. If you need to improve this area, exercises like burpees, planks, and sit-ups can be done anywhere in your new home without extra equipment.

Remember, you can’t out-exercise a bad diet. Good nutrition is essential for overall fitness. Once you’re settled in your new house, be sure to focus on eating well too.

These tips will help you stay fit in your new home in ways that are easy, inexpensive, and accessible.
