What is the BEST home workout routine? One you’ll actually DO!
This full body training program has it all — from strength training to HIIT, cardio, barre, yoga and stretching routines. We’ll hit every muscle group and allow proper rest time to focus on mobility and recovery.
Plus — every workout is 30 minutes or less. You can do anything for 30 minutes! That’s what makes this workout plan attainable.
This 14-Day Workout Challenge includes a variety of workouts to help you build muscle, burn fat, and avoid a fitness plateau so you stick to good habits!
14 Day Workout Program Details
1. Gym Equipment Needed:
A Set of Dumbbells. Most of the daily workouts require a set of dumbbells. Each weight training workout will have a recommended dumbbell weight, usually between 8-20 pounds for the strength workouts and 2-5 pounds for the barre/yoga workouts. Remember muscle building happens with lifting weights.
Optional Exercise Equipment:
Mini Loop Resistance Band. You can add a resistance band to the leg exercises to increase the intensity. These are the mini loop resistance bands I have (DISCOUNT CODE: NML).
Foam Roller. A great way to release sore muscles post workout or to use on active recovery days.
2. Time Requirement:
30 minutes a day (or less), 5 days per week. You can always take more rest days as needed!
If you’re a runner and want to incorporate running into this full body workout plan, I suggest completing three of the strength training workouts each week. Choose three full body workouts OR choose:
- One Leg Day (lower body)
- One Arm Day (upper body)
- One Full Body Training Day
You just want to make sure you are strength training your major muscle groups three times per week. Add running on the other days or add a run to arm days if time allows. You also have the option to follow our 2-Week Strength Training + Running Workout Plan.
3. Fitness Level:
Intermediate-to-Advanced with modifications offered for all fitness levels.
If you need to adjust this plan for pregnancy/postpartum, modifications are noted next to the daily workouts to make this fitness plan accessible for all fitness levels. If I don’t recommend a workout for pregnancy, I’ve linked an alternative, pregnancy-friendly workout.
4. Cost:
FREE! No sign up needed, this is a FREE 14-Day Workout Plan.
This 14-Day Challenge is for Anyone Looking To:
- Build Lean Muscle (increasing muscle size and strength)
- Burn Calories and Lose Weight
