In December 2024, after a five-year fitness sabbatical (and some less-than-stellar bloodwork), I decided it was time to recommit to movement and rebuild my cardiovascular endurance and strength. I started small, committing to thrice-weekly incline walks and strength training a couple of times a week. In a perfect world, I’d do all my walks and almost-a-jog “jogs” outside, soaking up fresh air instead of fluorescent lighting. Unfortunately, with daylight disappearing before 5 p.m.—and me still glued to my laptop—daily outdoor workouts weren’t realistic (and still aren’t). After all, I knew the only way I’d see results was through gentle consistency—not short-lived stints of HIIT group classes daily.
While body recomposition (losing fat while building muscle) was undoubtedly a welcome side effect along my health journey, for the first time, I approached fitness as a tool for health and longevity rather than just a means to burn calories. I’d tried group fitness classes, hiking, and high-intensity programs in recent years, but boredom or strain always derailed me after a few weeks. Last year, I realized that to stay on track this time, I needed a routine that was procrastination-proof and attainable, and investing in a few smart, space-saving home essentials was key.
