Weekender Workout

Going out of town for the weekend? Don't have a gym membership? Can't run outside because it's raining? No excuses.  This 15 minute workout requires only you - no weights, equipment, etc. - and is guaranteed to get your heart racing and your pits sweating.

Here's how it goes (^and you will look that happy while doing this workout^):


1 minute High Knees
1 minute Mountain Climbers
1 minute Burpees 
1 minute Squat Jumps
1 minute to do 10 Push-Ups and Rest
*Repeat 3 times and you're done.
*Click the links for a video example of each exercise.
*You can modify the burpee by taking out the push-up if it's too difficult or stepping back instead of jumping back.


I tried this out the other day when I went up to Planet Fitness only to find they were closed because of a power outage (that was fun).  Anyways, slightly frustrated, I came back home, found a one minute timer on YouTube, and 15 minutes later I felt like I got one of the better workouts I've had in a while.  So try it!  Feel free to mix it up - add different moves/different order - and do as much as you can of each in one minute.
