These 14 exercises are a great introduction to the type of moves your body will be doing as it starts on its fitness journey. And they are equipment free! Take it at your own pace, and if something hurts, ease up or stop the exercise completely. Done correctly, these moves should feel challenging but not painful.
- Begin with a 3-5 minute warmup: walking on a treadmill, jump roping, jumping jacks, jogging in place.
- Start with the first exercise, aim for 10-15 repetitions.
- Move on to the second exercise and complete the same amount of repetitions as the first.
- Once you have completed all the exercises, take a water break and determine if you are ready for another round, or if one complete circuit was enough. Over time you will build up to completing two to three rounds. It won't happen overnight, so give yourself a chance to adapt and recover!
