10 Feb 5 Minute Time Crunch Workout- VIDEO
5 Minute “Time Crunch” Workout
Can you really have an 5 minute workout that is effective? YES, you can!
It’s not about how much time you work out, it’s about how intense you are making it for YOU! I’ll humor myself and think that your real question is, “I only have five minutes to workout – what can I do?” In this short video, I share five challenging exercises that you can do that work multiple parts of your body. And trust me, they aren’t easy!
Exercise #1 – Combination Push Up Plank
Start out in plank position with your hands wide, shoulder width apart and do a push up. Then move your hands in closer so that you’re focusing on your triceps and push up. By varying our hand positions, wider and in closer, we’re working our core, abs, chest and triceps.
Exercise #2 – Crab Crawl with a Kick
Get in bridge position, fingers and toes pointed forward, and walk forward, back, side to side, whatever you have room to do! If you want to work on stability, challenge yourself and kick one leg out (rotating legs).
Exercise #3 – Plank Jacks
These are just like jumping jacks, only you’re in a plank position with your hands, shoulder width a part.
Exercise #4 – Combination Donkey Leg Straight Kick
This may look weird, but it’s not and it really targets your hamstrings and glutes. Start out on your forearms, with one knee on the ground and the other knee bent a 90◦ angle, and donkey kick up. Then straighten out your leg and kick up. If you have an extra minute, work one side for 60 seconds and switch. Otherwise, 30 seconds on each leg.
Exercise #5 – Sumo Squats
These are just awesome for your legs. Try and get as low as you can and mix it up with tiny pulses mixed in with regular squats.
Do each of these exercises for 1 minute!
