Exercises For Lazy People Who Hate Working Out
If you want a slim body but hate exercising, know that you are not alone! Especially if you are a homebody who loves spending more time in your bedroom than outside, it's going to be even more difficult to get in shape.
That doesn't mean it's impossible, though. Here are some exercises (great for lazy people) that can be done in the bedroom and will only require your bed so you won't even have to take a step out of your haven.
Check them out below!
Lie down on the floor near your bed and position yourself so that your legs can be rested on the bed for the following exercises.
#1 Push-up

Rest both legs on the bed and support your upper body with your arms in a push-up position. You know the drill - tighten your core and keep your legs straight while doing the push-ups.
Each set should consist of 12 push-ups. Do four sets and remember to take a break in between to not overexert yourself.
#2 Leg stretch

Lay down on the floor with both legs resting on the bed. Then, lift one leg up in the air, keeping it straight. Move that leg to the side and stretch it as far as you can manage. Repeat on the other leg.
Each leg should be stretched 12 times and two sets on each side.

Face the bed diagonally and place your left leg on the bed. Fold your right leg and rest it above your left thigh. Tighten your stomach and core area, then lift your upper body upwards to feel the stretch on your stomach and leg. Turn the other side and repeat for your other leg.
Each set should consist of 12 stretches. Do two sets on each side.
#4 Kicking

Position yourself on the floor so that your calves are resting on the bed. Lift one leg up and stretch towards it to touch your knee with both hands. Do the same for the other leg.
You should feel a stretch on your core just like when you do a regular sit-up.
Each set should consist of 12 sit-ups. Do four sets and remember to take a break in between to not overexert yourself.
#8 Stretching

Lastly, end off your exercise routine with a good stretch to loosen your muscles and prevent any aches the next day.
Rest your lower body straight on the bed and upper body resting on the floor, with your arms stretching outwards. You should feel a stretch on your stomach and back.
Stretch for 10 seconds then relax. Repeat four times.
