Prioritize Your Health by Finding the Time
Bodyweight workouts are perfect for busy days. One of the most common excuses we hear for skipping a workout is “not enough time.” But here’s a hard truth that is true for most of us: It’s not that we don’t have time. It’s actually a matter of wasting time doing other things. I’m not talking about time spent at work, school, or with the family. I’m talking about the time wasted scrolling social media in the morning or bingeing a TV show at night.
When you really think about it, how much time do you spend doing things that aren’t truly benefitting you in any way? Chances are good that you can come up with at least 10-30 minutes if you’re really being honest with yourself. And since you’re here reading this, it’s probably safe to assume that you’re trying to improve your health!
Take a moment to look at all of the things you do in a day. Is there anything that you can swap or drop to free up some time for a quick workout? We bet there is!
Do-Anywhere Bodyweight Circuit Workout for Increased Fat Loss
This bodyweight circuit workout can be modified to fit your schedule. Simply set a timer for 10 to 30 minutes and cycle through the exercises as many times as possible within that time limit.
Don’t short yourself, though. If you have 15 minutes, do this workout for 15 minutes. If you have 30 minutes, do it for 30 minutes. Don’t just do the bare minimum if you’ve actually got the time to do more! The more effort you give, the better your results will be!
Perform each move for the designated number of reps and rest for the amount of time specified after each exercise. When your rest time after burpees is up, immediately go back to jumping jacks and begin the circuit again!
Before you begin, be sure to watch the instructional videos below in order to familiarize yourself with the exercises.
- Jumping Jacks – 40 reps / rest for 20 seconds
- Air Squats – 15 reps / rest for 10 seconds
- High Knees – 30 alternating reps / rest for 30 seconds
- Burpees – 10 reps / rest for 30 seconds
Note: You can incorporate a push-up into each burpee if you’d like to make it more challenging!
