Lets get that workout on. It only takes 30 minutes a day. You don’t have to go out and get a gym membership or buy all the nicest equipment to put at your house. You can use just normal daily things. If you are trying to build up strength and muscle it will be a little different for you. You are going to have to use items to add resistance.
Today we are going to focus on using nothing but our body weight. Everything is going to be timed so we aren’t focused on how many reps we are doing. For the first 10 minutes of the 30, we are going to get that warm up on. This is a very important process in the workout. This gets the blood flowing and the muscles ready to function at a high intensity. We do not want any muscular injuries. The warm-up exercises will be in 30-second intervals.
