Here is how you can get in a short workout even if you only have 10 mins.

 

What you will need:

  • Your body
  • Running shoes
  • Water
  • Timer
  • Towel (optional)

 

Here is what you will do:

1. Do a quick warm up for 1-2mins. Its short because the workout is short!

Some examples:

-Light jog

-Jumping jacks

-Arm circles

-Leg Swings

-Inch worm

-Side to side lunges

-Hip openers

 

2. Choose 4 body weight exercises

Some examples:

-Squats

-Push-ups

-Jumping jacks

-Lying leg lifts (abs)

-High to low plank

-Skaters

-Burpees

-Mountain Climbers

-Floor Tricep Dips

-Side Plank

-Lunges

-Bicycle crunches

 

3. Complete each exercise for 30s, rest for 1-2mins and repeat 3.

4. Cool down & stretch for 1-2mins.


BOOM! A workout in less than 10 mins will have you feeling pumped up and ready for the rest of your day.

A time efficient workout means short rest periods. This is a GREAT way to get your heart rate up and burn a ton of calories in a small time period.

By performing HIIT intervals (high intensity interval training) and periods where you get your heart rate up (the 4 exercises) and then your heart rate back down (rest period), you are going to be burning more calories even AFTER you have worked out!
