We all know cleaning isn’t exactly at the top of the list of things we love to get home and do - I can think of exactly 597 things I would choose to do before reaching for the mop and bucket - but sadly part of being an adult means having to do dull things like cleaning the floor (the price we pay for being able to stay up late and eat dessert before mains). Thankfully, gadgets are available to make these chores faster, easier and more enjoyable (if you have ever used a mechanical apple peeler you will know what I mean) and the Kärcher Hard Floor Cleaner F

However, not all of us have the space for a full gym rack and weight set in our homes, so we are going to let you into a little secret: you don’t need a load of gear to work out. The KettlebellConnect is a good example of how a single piece of equipment can provide a whole range of workouts at different weight intensities to target every muscle group.

There are no short cuts when it comes to learning a new skill, be it playing the piano or weight lifting, you are only going to get better through practice, that isn’t to say there aren’t ways that can bring your practice sessions to the next level, making sure you are well rested oh and electrocuting your brain.
