Sports at home. Don't know where to start? Atletas.lt specialists advise!

Quarantine has taught most people that you can exercise at home, if you want to. Learning to adapt to changing conditions is essential to staying in shape and healthy.

What to do if you can't get ready to exercise? Most likely, you simply don't know where to start. It's elementary that all athletes or neighbors with beautiful figures started somewhere to achieve the results they have.

Try out some small exercise machines and sports equipment that don't cost much, but create an opportunity to discover your favorite way to exercise. Below we provide short descriptions that can help you choose.

We share with you one of the main tips for beginners: exercising at home should start with a mat, so that it is more comfortable to perform all the exercises, and you do not want to end the workout prematurely.

How to choose a rug?

The main difference between mats is the material. They are usually made of NBR (nitrile rubber) or TPE (thermoplastic rubber). These mats are usually soft, non-slip and anti-allergic.

NBR mats vary in rubber density. Cheap ones are usually less dense and are very soft, even too soft, as they easily press into the floor and can cause discomfort, especially on the knees. PRO series mats have increased density and are stiffer, which provides a more comfortable workout.

TPE mats are immediately stiffer and do not split into house or pro levels. These are the next generation mats that are slightly more expensive than NBR but are no less inferior.
