10-minute Workouts
Let’s face it. We all have great intentions, but sometimes, life happens, and we can’t fit our 20-30-minute routine into the schedule. Your mom can no longer pick the kids up from school; Bobby has a science project, and your boss wants your analysis on his desk tomorrow at 8 am. How in the world are you going to get a workout in? The good news is, it’s not always all or nothing; sometimes, it’s get it in where you can fit it in. Check out a few 10-minute workout solutions you can do at home or in the office below.
Workout 1
Pile squat: 15
Incline pushup (use a sturdy surface such as a desk, coffee table, bench)-15
Modified dips - 15
Repeat 1-2 x. Here is a video demonstrating these exercises.
Workout 2
Let’s go rucking! This is just a fancy way of saying weighted walking. You can walk around the neighborhood or at work with an 8-15 pound dumbbell in your backpack or wear a weighted vest. This adjustable vest is my favorite!
Workout 3
Climb the stairs, but don’t make it boring. Find the creepy back stairs at your work building and do this fun stair circuit. Start the clock!
Walk up and down a flight of stairs - 2x
Walk up one flight, skipping each stair, then walk down one stair at a time - 2x
Step ups - 15 each leg
Run up and down 1 step for 60 seconds
Repeat until 10 minutes have passed and time is up!
