I'm a personal trainer who swapped hour-long gym workouts for short home sessions - and the results have surprised me

Home vs gym workouts: Abbi rolling out her mat at home.

I know I'm not alone when I say that, come Autumn, I struggle to be consistent with my gym routine. Whether it’s the wet and chilly weather or the dark evenings, the drive I had to train in the gym in summer has, along with the temperature, dramatically declined - which is why I started researching the difference in home vs gym workouts.

While the verdict's still out on whether home workouts are as effective as home workouts (PT's seem to be divided across the board), one thing's for certain: more people than ever are opting for home sweat sessions post-pandemic. They're affordable, time-efficient, and help you avoid gym anxiety altogether as you're working out from the comfort of your own home. What's not to love?
