September 24, 2020 Share

The ultimate tools to keep fit from home

We all know that exercise if a key component of a balanced life, but what do you do if you can no longer go to the gym, the park or even your favourite boutique fitness classes? It may be time to start searching for alternatives.

Luckily, we live in an era of innovation, where we can access the very best of the world’s instructors and techniques via the magic of the internet. And with new products being introduced everyday – those looking to keep up with their fitness routines from the comfort of their own homes, we can rest assured that we can stay healthy without leaving the house. 

DDW reviews the best gear for keeping fit to help you avoid the winter weight without overwhelming your living space:

Tangram Smart Rope Pure

Tangram Smart Rope Pure

Sometimes the oldies are the ultimate goodies. Jumping rope has been proven to be one of the very best strength and coordination building exercises out there- outlasting countless exercise fads and machines. Although traditionally a super low-tech item (few things are more basic than a rope with two handles) Tangram has reinvented this age-old workout tool and reintroduced it to the 21st century. With in-handle sensors to track revolutions, a calorie counter, and ball bearings in each handle to ensure smooth jumping, this is a must-have for home workouts.
