There are lots of great ways to stay active at home, including fitness DVDs.

We know the importance of exercise for your mental and physical wellbeing, and you don't have to head to the gym to keep active. There's plenty of evidence that exercise helps you feel younger too.

Whilst restrictions are no more, many of us still aren't comfortable going to that yoga class or hitting the gym just yet. This is why things like fitness apps and fitness DVDs are so handy, and they have the added benefit that you can complete them from the comfort of your home.

We’ve found a range of fitness DVDs that you can order online, allowing you to stay fit and healthy in your own home.

• The more you practice, the better you'll get!
