Finding time for the gym can be a hard task for a lot of us. Most people can only find an hour a day at most to spend at the gym. Once you get to the gym the next questions is: What should I do here? Well, Her Campus is here to solve that problem! Here are five quick workouts that will have your spring break body looking great!
IMPORTANT: all of these workout are quick, therefore try and blast through them as fast as you can to get your heart rate up!
Workout 1: run one mile on the treadmill, then in the sequence of 50, 40, 30, 20, 10 do sit ups, squats, jumping jacks and Russian twists, then to finish off run one more mile
Workout 2: 10 sets of 10 reps of each: knee push-ups, walking lunges, hollow rocks and tricep dips (use a box or bench at the gym), then finish with 10 minutes of light cardio. We recommend the elliptical to cool down after this workout
Workout 3: run one mile and do 100 burpees (chest to the floor), finish with a one minutes plank, this one sounds crazy but shouldn’t take more than 25 minutes!
Workout 4: two miles on the bike, 20 straight minutes of as many reps as possible: set a timer and just continue these movements till the time is up, 20 squats, 20 sit ups, 20 leg lifts and 20 overhead presses with two dumbbells at whatever weight you feel comfortable with
Workout 5: four rounds: run a quarter mile, 26 back lunges, 26 v-ups, 26 push-ups (regular or modified on your knees, make sure to get as low to the ground as possible!)
