Time flies by pretty quickly; Halloween has already come and gone, and before you know it, you’ll find yourself sitting before a grand feast of various sumptouous foods on Chistmas Eve. Fear not, however, for here are 5 quick and easy exercises that you can do right in the comfort of your dorm room. As Olivia Newton-John would say, “let’s get physical, physical!”

1. The Mountain Climber

This exercise will most definitely work out your legs and core. Alternate bent legs in mountain-climber position, holding each position for about 10 seconds. Repeat and alternate for 3-4 minutes. Keep your hips and butt low!

2. The Knee Hugger

Strengthen and tone the entire abdominal wall by doing 20 reps. 

3. Kermit the Frog 

Work out your thighs and bootie with this workout. Try the move shown above for 10-20 seconds with 20 second breaks in between about 2-3 sets. Always make sure that your knees do not go past your toes when landing. 

4. The Indecisive Plank

Complete 10-15 rounds of the exercise shown above to work out your arms and core. 

5.  Step Hops 

Alternate legs when hopping in place to tone those legs! Repeat 20 reps.
