Swap the gym for this trainer’s six-move kettlebell workout to build full-body strength at home
How to build body strength at home, with minimal equipment
- Certified personal trainer Amanda Capritto says it is possible to build full-body strength at home with minimal equipment.
- Ms Capritto, a full-time traveller, maintained and even improved her strength using resistance bands, a single dumbbell, and a kettlebell while living full-time in a van.
- Her workout includes single-arm bent-over rows, single-leg Romanian deadlifts, kettlebell swings, close-grip press-ups, alternating reverse lunges, and suitcase carries.
- Ms Capritto emphasises progressive overload, achieved by manipulating sets, reps, rest, time under tension, unilateral exercises, power focus, and range of motion.
- Beginners can make significant progress with minimal equipment as their bodies adapt to the new stimulus of resistance training, she says.
