I’m currently in work overload as the next few weeks are going to be quite stressful. Having a lot going on at work means that my personal to-do list is growing quite long. One of the things that has yet to be crossed of the list is joining the office gym. While I’m sure the process will only take 10 minutes I just haven’t made it upstairs yet to fill out the paperwork and take the mandatory tour. I also haven’t come to terms with paying the full year cost up-front until our cash flow gets in order a bit. Moving two people to two different countries is expensive!

So, in light of my gym-free life and the fact that none of my workout DVD or weights have arrived from the United States, I took the time to put together a simple five minute full body workout that I could do anytime in the comfort of my flat. It requires very little space, no equipment and best of all, it is hard enough to make your muscles quiver while not making you sweat.

 

I’ve been doing this workout every single day for 2 weeks and am already up to 29 full pushups in a minute and the wall squat doesn’t make my thighs quiver quite so much. I love getting it done early, right after my morning run, before hopping in the shower!  It’s the perfect solution for people who travel, don’t belong to a gym, or are just looking for a beginner strength training program. Even someone like my new workout buddy, Sarah, who is a new mom with barely enough time to shower!

Try tossing this workout into your daily routine 3-4 days a week and feel the difference within weeks!
