More and more people are discovering how you can still do a complete workout at home with little space. Modular training is a clever way to do many different exercises with multifunctional fitness products. In this blog, you will discover how modular training works and why it is so useful. We also give you examples of products that help you do this.
What is modular training?
Modular training means you can perform a variety of exercises using just a few pieces of equipment. For example, a barbell set allows you to train both your legs with squats and your arms with bicep curls. This makes modular training a flexible and efficient option for everyone.
Frequently asked questions about strength training at home
- 1. How much rest do I need?
Rest is crucial for muscle recovery. Your body needs about two days to rebuild and grow stronger after a workout. During this time, you can train different muscle groups or do light exercises.
- 2. Can I train at home as effectively as in the gym?
Absolutely! With a solid plan and the right equipment, you can achieve the same results at home. Many exercises can be easily adapted for home use with products like the Tunturi Aerobic Pump Set.

Proper technique is key. Start with light weights and perform each movement slowly and in a controlled manner. Choose products with a good grip and stable design to train safely.
