How to Do a Full Body Workout in Less Than 5 Minutes...?

Do you ever tell yourself you don't have enough time to exercise? If you can't spare enough time for a jog or a trip to the gym, this article will provide a routine that can be over and done with in less than 5 minutes. You'll do 8 exercises for 20 seconds, with 10 second breaks in between.




1) Do as many push-ups as you can in 20 seconds. It works the chest, shoulders, abs, and biceps and/or triceps. See How to Do a Push Up. As you get better, you can also Vary the Push up Routine.

2) Rest for 10 seconds.

3) Do the "mountain climber" for 20 seconds. This will work your core and legs, as well as your lungs!

* From the push-up position, bring one leg forward to your chest and put your weight on it briefly.

*Switch with the other leg.

*Repeat swiftly.

4) Rest for 10 seconds.

5) Do reverse rope pulls for 20 seconds. This is done to work your upper back. If you don't have the means to do this, replace it with another upper back exercise. One option is pilates: How to Strengthen Your Back with Plates.

6) Do bur pees for 20 seconds.





* Drink plenty of water after this routine. Try not to drink too much before this routine or during breaks.

*Memorize the routine and do it to the same, 4-minute song every time. Eventually you'll know exactly when 10 or 20 seconds have passed just by listening to the music, and you won't have to check your watch any-more.
