Aping Internet videos can be dangerous. Usually people who are in such exercise videos are really fit; therefore they are at ease while performing a difficult routine, they make it seem very easy. In reality, the situation is different. Many people lack the necessary stamina, and if you try any workout at random, you might end up with a serious injury. So, even for a home fitness routine, consult a fitness trainer first.
This workout routine involves common exercises such as jumping jack, squats, push-ups, lunges and plank. Slow jogging and marching are good for warm-up. Different combinations and variations of these common exercises make your no equipment workout worthwhile.
