0202Build a Minimalist Home Gym That Fits Your Work-From-Home Life

A practical guide to simple equipment and short exercises that restore mobility, build strength, and fit neatly into your home office.

Long hours at a desk can leave your hips stiff, shoulders tight, and energy fading by mid-afternoon. Movement helps—but commuting to a gym or setting up a full home gym isn’t always realistic.

This free guide shows how to use just three versatile pieces of equipment to undo the effects of sitting—without cluttering your space or complicating your schedule.

You’ll learn which tools give you the most options in the least space, how to select quality equipment that lasts, and the best exercises to get results in just 15 minutes a day.
