5 Exercises You Can Do With A Chair

Trainer Charlee Atkins has done the hard work for you, enlisting her dining room chairs to help her stay ripped during lockdown. 

But before you launch into any of her exercises, make sure your chair isn’t one from yesteryear and it has stable enough legs to hold your excessive load. 

In her circuit, Charlee has five exercises, aiming to fit in as many reps as she can for 30 seconds. 

  • Elevated Pushup
  • Feet-Elevated Hip Raise
  • Toe-Tap Kick-Back
  • Reverse Tabletop
  • Plank Jacks

The workout should be 3 rounds of the entire routine, limiting your rest between exercises and to just 1 minute between rounds. And if you’re finding pushups a little too easy, you can try elevating your feet to sit on top of the chair.
