This summer I was asked to write a 10-minute express workout for all the busy wives here at HWC.
I decided to go ahead and do it again. I’m sure life hasn’t slowed down for most of you, and if you are like me, it’s probably even more hectic.
Don’t let the lack of time or money stop you from moving your body and getting healthy.
It’s time to stop the excuses and start working out.
In this 10-minute express workout I have included all of your major muscle groups. It even has a little cardio so that you have a complete workout.
This is not designed to be done daily, save it for the days that you are in a pinch.
Feel free to do this one day, and another day you can workout using the express workout that I shared this summer here.
If you have bands and a stability ball another great short workout can be found here.
One last note before giving you the workout plan, this is an intermediate workout, so if you need to modify it, please do. Don’t be a hero. Always check with your physician before starting any new routines. If you have pain or feel weird stop immediately.
Equipment: None required, but if you have a workout mat your knees and hands may thank you.
