Description

Want to level up your fitness game without stepping foot in a gym? As we get older, maintaining muscle strength becomes increasingly crucial, but not everyone enjoys the gym environment. That's why I've crafted a workout routine tailored specifically for you, using just a few essential pieces of equipment that you can easily incorporate into your home routine. Around age 30, you start losing muscle mass, which can lead to a decline in strength, power, balance, and flexibility. It's not just about looking good; it's about feeling strong and confident in your body as you navigate daily life. I've put together a program that targets these key areas, focusing on upper-body pushing, upper-body pulling, and hip/thigh hinging exercises. I’ll explain the minimal equipment you need and share a free cheat sheet I made for you to easily get started. Each exercise in this routine is carefully chosen to help you build strength, power, and stability. And don't worry if you're new to this – I'll walk you through each movement, focusing on proper form and technique to prevent injury and optimize results.   FULL show notes: https://www.jjvirgin.com/hometraining Use my Eat Protein First Calculator: http://jjvirgin.com/proteinfirst Hand Grip Dynamometer: https://amzn.to/48OI2a1 Download my free Resistance Training Cheat Sheet: jjvirgin.com/power
