Bonus points for low impact and cheap/free. I have a foot injury and can’t run/bike/hike for a bit.
Editing this to say:
- Thank you all for the suggestions, I love the Lemmy community, and,
- I know a lot of workouts can be done at home, and these are all great ideas. However, I bike/hike because I have trouble motivating myself to just work out as an activity. I trick myself using fun, but I don’t know how to make indoor excercise exciting.
Bench and dumbbells with weights. You can do bro splits adapted to dumbbells and skip legs (no one actually cares about legs 🙃) Personally I don’t think that workout can be fun by itself, there bound to be exercises that you will hate but you can have fun while exercising.
Strengthen your legs for yourself, not anyone else
With leg injuries it’s better to be cautious, especially if someone isn’t even able to hike or ride a bici.
Absolutely, just saying they are still important to work on for people who can, even if you are more likely to be complimented on arms, abs, etc.
It was a light joke about gym culture and leg day obsession.
