Strength Training
Weight lifting offers a variety of benefits, from more resting calorie burn, to a tight and toned body at any weight. Don’t forget this important part of your at home workout routine.

Developing your muscles makes cardiovascular workouts a little easier, and by doing compound exercises you can strengthen your entire body in just a few short weeks.
