Make Room for Fitness Outside of the Gym
Sure, gyms may be temporarily closed for health and safety precautions, but that doesn't mean your exercise routine is done for. There are plenty of ways you can keep up with your routine, and even add to it! This week, The Lodges at Rolla is sharing a couple of great workout routines that you can do outside the gym, whether in the comfort of your very chic luxury apartment or outdoors! Check them out.

Push-ups: 10 reps
Lunges: 10 each leg
Dumbbell rows (using a gallon milk jug or another weight): 10 each arm.
Plank: 15 seconds
Jumping Jacks: 30 reps
Once you've completed these 6 exercises, take a 20-30 break to grab a drink of water, then jump right back in and do it all over again! Do 3 total circuits of these short exercises.
If you're feeling like you can handle a tougher workout, feel free to add more reps to each exercise and/or add another circuit on. Or try this next circuit workout! This more advanced workout looks like this:
