Get Moving at Home with These 30-Minute Fat-Burning Workouts

Just because we’re all stuck at home doesn’t mean we have to ignore Workout Wednesday. Health and fitness coach Helle Hammonds has three intense 30-minute workouts for you.

So, we’re officially in a lockdown for at least three weeks due to the coronavirus. We’re only allowed out once a day to exercise, so we need effective home workouts that really get our heart rate up and leave us feeling like we’ve done something.

Healthista has teamed up with fitness coach Helle Hammonds to offer you some great at-home workouts. Helle is known for her motivating methods and professional-level sculpting techniques. Try these three home workouts over the next few days and share your progress with us on Instagram @HealthistaTV.
