You might be saying to yourself: ‘I’m too tired.’ Or ‘I don’t have time’ (no equipment?). Don’t use that ‘I didn’t have any/much time’ excuse now! You’ll see that these workouts are short, easy, no-equipment. Depending on the day, with or without food, just a little movement goes a long way in improving your energy and mood. And the routines are so versatile you can get in a workout on the busiest of days.
Workout 1: 5-Minute Power Burst
Get your heart rate up fast. Do some jumping jacks, high knees or mountain climbers for 5 minutes. Not only will these keep you warm, but your metabolism will crank up for the day.
Workout 2: 10-Minute Bodyweight Routine
No weights? No problem! Push-ups, squats and lunges will help you develop muscle tone and strength. It’s also great if you can find time to fit in an exercise session during your baby’s afternoon nap, or while she’s playing with her toys.
Workout 3: Kid-Friendly Fitness Fun
Turn playtime into workout time! Dance with your kids to a song of freeze dance, play hopscotch, or simply chase them around to get that extra calorie burn while having fun with your family.
Workout 4: Quick Yoga Flow
Feeling stressed? Taking 10 minutes to do a few yoga poses can help. Downward dog, warrior and child’s pose are all very good for stretching and turning your mind off.
Workout 5: Core Strengthening Circuit
Work those oblique muscles with planks, bicycle crunches and leg raises. These are easy to fit in. When the kids are playing or watching TV, you can get your abs done in a hurry.
Workout 6: Dance Party Cardio
Turn up your favorite playlist and dance! Dancing for just five or 20 minutes can be a fun and effective way to get your cardio in and lift your mood.
Workout 7: Morning Stretch Routine
First, do a little routine of stretches: arms over your head, legs stretched, torso twisted – all to align and refresh body and spirit. Almost anything can be a warm-up.
Workout 8: 10-Minute Total Body Workout
String seven or eight of these strengthening drills back to back – for example, burpees, jumping jacks and mountain climbers – for a full-body circuit workout that elevates your heart rate and engages multiple muscle groups at once.
Workout 9: Evening Relaxation Routine
Finally, end your day with a few stretches and some deep breathing. This is the perfect ending to a long day, as the stretching can relax you and aid sleep, while the breathing leaves you energized for the coming day.
