In today’s post I’m sharing a new quick workout that you can do in under half an hour at home.
Before I get into today’s workout, I wanted to remind you that you can find all of the workouts that I’ve shared over the years on my workouts page. If you’re in need of some music to enjoy while you’re sweating, check out my workout playlists. There’s something for everyone over there – from top 40 to 80’s hits to boy bands.
You’ll only need a few key pieces of equipment for this workout. I’d recommend a yoga mat (affiliate link) for any of the exercises on the floor like the side planks, push ups, and chest press. If you’re interested I shared a review of my Manduka mat. It’s the same one that I linked above and it got me through yoga teacher training and beyond. You’ll also want a couple pairs of dumbbells (affiliate link). Lighter ones for upper body moves and heavier ones for lower body exercises.
Perform each exercise for 1 minute followed by a 1 minute rest/prep for the next exercise. It’ll go by quick and you’ll appreciate all 60 seconds of rest between moves.
- Dumbbell squat
- Overhead press
- Lateral lunges
- Side plank (side A)
- Donkey kicks
- Push ups
- Dumbbell chest press
- Side plank (side B)
- Skaters
- Tricep kickbacks
- Step ups
- Bicep curls
As always, you’ll want to make sure that you perform each rep with really good form. If you can’t complete a full 60 seconds, it’s time to switch to a lighter weight. And there’s absolutely no shame in that. It’s much better to go smaller than to risk an injury with bad form.
Let me know if you try this workout and what you think of it. Feel free to tag me on Instagram. I love seeing people enjoying the workouts that I share on the blog!
