3 Fun And Effective Exercises You Can Do In Your Bed

Every night, you promise yourself that you will get up in the morning, get out of the bed, and start working out. But then, as the morning comes, you just don’t feel like getting up and going away from your cosy and enticing bed. Well, who would, right? So, you hit the snooze and your fitness goals go for a toss, thanks to your love for that bed. What if we tell you that you don’t have to get off that bed to get fit? Now, we are sure, we have all your attention on us. T

1. Side Plank

Side plank is a simple workout, which just cannot get tough if you are doing it on the bed.
Here is how you do it:

  • Lie on your right side. Then, lift your hip off the bed, with your right elbow and forearms firmly on the bed.
  • Balance your weight on your between your legs and elbow.
  • If you want, you can use your left arm for extra support along with the right one. Or, lift it up straight towards the ceiling, to make the exercise a little more challenging.
  • Now, slowly lift the leg on the top as high as you can.
  • As you lift your legs, do squeeze your glutes (butt muscles) as well.
  •  Do 10 lifts on one side, before switching to the other.
You can increase the number of repetitions by each leg as you get comfortable with the exercise.
2. Kneeling-Squat Walk
As Anna says this is a workout move that is meant to be done on a soft surface.
And, here is how you do it:
  • Sit down on your knees and keep your back straight. 
  • Now lift your feet and bring them underneath your knees in a squatting position.
  • After this, come back to the kneeling position.
  • This complete one repetition. Like this do ten reps before taking a break of two minutes.
3. Burpee Roll Up
Now this one is a fun move that requires your full body to stay involved.
Here is how you do this one:
  • First stand straight on your bed. And, then squat on your knees slowly. 
  • After this fall down on your back. 
  • Roll on your back and lift your knees, hips and waist above the bed.
  • And, similarly roll your way back on to your feet; and come back to the first position.
