Happy New Year! Now that 2017 is in full swing, it’s time to take on the new year. If I can share one piece of advice, it’s this: Make it a point to change your lifestyle, rather than checking off your resolutions. I’m confident you’ll find it easier to achieve your goals that way!
To further help you, I’ve created a quick workout series that will transform your fitness game! I know you won’t always have an hour to spend at the gym, but you’ll probably have at least 5–10 minutes to spare. You won’t need any equipment and the exercises are short and sweet.
Let’s get started!
MORNING WORKOUT
Try to fit this in before noon. (Personally, I like to do this before I shower or eat breakfast.)
Warmup
30 seconds side-to-side hops
30 seconds alternating lunges.
Complete as many rounds as possible in 4 minutes.
10 jump lunges (each leg)
15 supine scissor kicks (each leg)
10 high-to-low planks
-------------------------
LUNCH WORKOUT
Whether you work 9–5, part time, or are a stay-at-home parent, fit this in before 5 p.m.
Warmup
5 minutes walking.
Complete 3–5 rounds.
10 curtsy lunges (each leg)
30 seconds wall sit
15 oblique mountain climbers (each leg)
15 Russian twists (each side)
----------------------------
EVENING WORKOUT
Work out while you binge watch your favorite Netflix show.
Perform each movement for 30 seconds. Repeat the list 2–4 times.
Squat walk
Side plank thread the needle
March with twist
----------------------------
