5-MINUTE BODYWEIGHT HIIT SESSION

 

ThIS 5-MINUTE BODYWEIGHT HIIT SESSION WILL BUUUUURN BABY BURN!

It may be short, but it's a tough one!! You can adjust your speed or range of motion, or even swap out for different exercises if you aren't quite ready for all of these moves in one circuit. Challenge yourself but listen to your body!

What You'll Need: Just a time-keeping tool (stopwatch, clock)

The Moves: 

  1. Burpee with Lateral Hop (feel free to add a push-up for some upper body work) 
  2. Overhead Squat Jump
  3. Speed Skaters
  4. Jack Knife Mountain Climbers
  5. Mountain Climbers 

How To Do This: Since we're doing HIIT (high-intensity interval training), we'll dedicate 1 minute to the work and recovery of each move. That means you can adjust how long you work and how long you rest, as long as you fit both into 1 minute per exercise.

If you're just starting out, aim for 30 seconds of work and 30 seconds of recovery (standing or walking). Then, aim for 40 seconds work, 20 seconds recovery. Eventually, see if you can get all the way to 50 seconds of work, 10 seconds of recovery without losing your form. After you've performed each exercise in this circuit, take a 1-2 minute break and repeat for 3-4 total rounds. 

This is a terrific workout on a higher intensity day - I'm excited for you to dominate this one!! Be sure to use the hashtag #HMBgirl when you post your sweaty selfie to Insta so I can see!! :)
