Not part of the plan
Let's face it, some days you just don't have time to workout. I am a pretty busy guy, so I understand.
There is the famous, "I am so busy I can barely breathe, but I will spend an hour watching TV" person. Or the "no way do I have time to workout, I have to update my Facebook status every 5 minutes and make sure no one says anything about me on Facebook" person.
Those examples are a little extreme, but we all have more time in our day than we think. If you really break your day down it is a little depressing.
Where do your hours go? Start tracking them and I guarantee every one of you can carve 15 minutes out of their day to exercise. 15 minutes that is all you will need for the workouts I have for you. These are not easy workouts just because they are short. If you only have a short time period, you have to make it more intense.
Workout 1
You will do each exercise for 30 seconds, rest 30 seconds, then move on to the next exercise. Go through the whole list 3 times with the following exercises.
-Kettlebell swings (or a dumbbell will work in a pinch)
-Pushups
-Burpess
-Jump squats
-Shoulder press
It will take you 15 minutes to do the whole workout.
Workout 2
Good old Tabatas. If you have never done Tabatas, get ready to live. This workout has only 2 exercises. To perform Tabatas you will work as hard as you can for 20 seconds, then rest 10 seconds. You will repeat this pattern for a total of 4 minutes per exercise (8 rounds total). Perform Tabatas with squats, rest 2 minutes, then Tabatas for pushups. 10 minutes and your workout is done.
Workout 3
This will be a sprint workout. A sprint doesn't necessarily have to be running. It can be on a bike, rowing machine, Shake Weight. Well maybe skip the Shake Weight. For the sprint go as hard as you can for 20 seconds, rest 60 seconds, and then repeat that a total of 10 times. Takes a little over 12 minutes to complete.
Make the time then take the time, you won't regret it. Try these out and let me know if you have questions!
