SaYou don’t need expensive equipment to develop an effective, diverse routine that builds muscle strength.Β Exercise should be a mix of strength training and cardiovascular training. Both modes of exercise burn calories and, in turn, lead to stored fat being used as a source of energy. Resistance bands are my go-to for a killer full body workout at home, giving you the versatility to play around with speed, while working on your cardiovascular system and providing you with several resistance options for you to build the strength.
