Times saving workout for Mums & busy women

Mum's are always looking after everyone else and often don't get everything done and her own workouts often get pushed aside to get other things done but this is not just mum's

When you’re wearing so many hats and your time is so tight that your workout seems to be the last thing on your ‘to do’ list?


Here’s a quick one that you can do on the fly:

Countdown Chaos

Set your timer. Start with 10 reps of each of the exercises on the list. Take as little rest as possible, then do 9 reps of each exercise on the list. Continue counting down 8 reps, 7 reps, 6 reps etc. of the exercises listed….Ready? Go!

(Stop your timer, beat your time next time you do this.)

Warm up 3 min with full body dynamic stretches (that is, range of motion movements of all limbs) we have listed them on previous blog.

Squat or Squat Jumps
Push Ups
DB rows (each arm)
Burpees
DB lateral raise
Mountain Climber (each leg)
Get Ups ( Turkish get ups)

Cool down with 2-3 min of stretching.

Note: DB = dumbbells - If you dont have dumbells fill 2 shopping bags evenly to a weight that will challenge you.
