You should condition at home 2 days per week to keep your progress. Whatever works for your schedule.

At home workout should only take about 30 minutes and consists of: dynamics workout,  12 min run, 5 min cool down and core workout. * SUGGESTED WORKOUT BELOW

You don't need a large area to run as it paced intervals. Running up and down your street will suffice.
