Your wellbeing: try Sussexsport exercise tutorials

Missing the gym? If you’re adjusting to working out at home without a familiar routine, it can be tricky to know where to start. There’s lots of information online, but it’s really important to master some fundamental movements first.

The Sussexsport fitness team has created a series of video tutorials demonstrating different workouts you can do at home, with minimal or no kit. No weights? No worry! Most of our exercises just use your own bodyweight to provide resistance. If you do need to add some weight to an exercise, you can improvise with household items like food tins and drinks bottles.

We’ll be adding more workouts each week, but you can check out our latest three online now:

What else can I do?

We have online fitness classes running every weekday via Zoom, exclusively for Sussex students and staff. You just need to register with the University's Zoom account using your Sussex email address to get involved. Find out more and see the full timetable.

If you miss a class, you can watch selected workouts on replay on our Facebook page. We have lots of fitness advice and tips on our Instagram page too.

We’ve also partnered with Life Fitness to offer hundreds of workouts that you can watch and download to try at home.

So if you want to keep moving, we're behind you. If you can think of any other ways that we can help to keep you motivated and stay active, just let us know by emailing sussexsport@sussex.ac.uk.
