10 Fast, Fat-Burning Workouts

Most busy people don’t have time to spend hours in the gym every day, but almost everyone can find a few minutes per day to get stronger, healthier and leaner.

Do a 5-minute warm-up before you begin and a cooldown after you finish. Grab a couple of friends for maximum motivation or just time yourself so you have a starting point. Pick one workout and get started.

Challenge Your Friends
1. Run 1/2 mile*, then 50 air squats (a squat using only your body weight). Do 3 rounds.

2. Run 400 meters, then 50 air squats. Do 4 rounds.

3. Sprint 100 meters, then walk 100 meters. Do 10 rounds.

4. Do 10 push-ups (replace with bent-knee pushups if unable to do regular pushups), then 10 air squats. Do 10 rounds.

Fast and Fitness
5.
Do 200 air squats for time.

6. Run 1 mile for time.*

7. Do 10 push ups, 10 air squats and 10 situps (or crunches for beginners). Do 6 rounds for time.

8. Run 1 mile, then do 50 air squats for time.

9. Do 250 jumping jacks for time.

10. Do 10 air squats, 10 push ups and 10 situps. Do 3 rounds for time.

*If you don’t have access to a track, you can use internet mapping programs (Google, Mapquest, etc.) or your car to plot a course.

Since these workouts are quick and don’t need any equipment, excuses for not exercising are gone. Pick a new workout each time you exercise and start over when you finish all 10.

Cheers,

Eve :-)
