Here are the top three tips I give to my clients when they complete their own home workouts. 1. Get a timer and work to the clock One of the main reasons people get results with personal trainers rather than training by themselves is increased intensity.This is easy to fix if you use a timer and are strict with yourself.

Say on your home workout programme today you have squats, burpees and lunges with 4 sets of each and no real strict timings.

It's easy to text, switch the music too often or even stick the TV for this. - but we can do better than that. Here's an AMRAP 10 (As Many Rounds As Possible in 10 minutes) to try: 4 burpees 8 bodyweight squats 12 alternating lunges Try this instead and I guarantee when that timer is counting down for 10:00, you'll work so much harder and rest a lot less.
