Quick Anywhere, Anytime Workout

Quick Travel Body Weight Workout:

Try to complete all 5 exercises in a row without resting (just
enough time to move from one exercise to another).

After you complete the entire circuit, rest 90 seconds to 3 minutes
seconds and then repeat the 5 exercises again. You can try this
circuit up to 4 times depending on whether you have 10-20 minutes
to exercise that day.
 


Exercise #1: T-Twist Push-Ups x 10-20 repetitions
(you can modify this without the push-up)



 










 







Exercise #2: Bulgarian Split Squats x 10-15 repetitions per leg
(you can hold onto a chair if needed for balance)

 





 
Exercise #3: Side Plank with Alternate Shoulder External Rotation x
20-30 repetitions
(this is great exercise to fire your postural muscles since it is
hard to target your back using just your own body weight)







 




Exercise #4: Prisoner Squats x 20 repetitions
(for a challenge or variety you could do a "pistol" or 1-legged squat for more
of a challenge)






 



Exercise #5: Mountain Climbers x 30 seconds
(this is a great "finishing move" to crank up the intensity and
your heart rate)
