Our trainers have modified some common strength training exercises, so instead of needing fancy gym equipment, you can use things you already have at home. Think a dining chair, hand towel and rice – yep, even rice!
Give our exercises a try the next time you want to break a sweat from the comfort of your living room. You’ll never look at the stuff around your home in the same way again.
