Quick 10-Minute Workout
February 1st, 2008 · Filed Under: Uncategorized
Here is a quick 10-minute workout that you can do anywhere. No equipment necessary and no gym required. It doesn’t take a lot of time and is very effective for fat loss which will help you with getting a flat stomach and six-pack abs. This workout will work your entire body - upper body, lower body, your abs, and will really get your heart rate up. You should do a proper warm up first.
The workout consists of 4 exercises - squat thrust, squats, push ups and jumping lunges. You’ll do 60 seconds of each exercise, then 45 seconds of each, then 30 seconds of each, and finally 15 seconds of each exercise for a total of 10 minutes.
So the routine looks like this:
60 seconds of squat thrusts
60 seconds of squats
60 seconds of push ups
60 seconds of jumping lunges (or lunges)
45 seconds of squat thrusts
45 seconds of squats
45 seconds of push ups
45 seconds of jumping lunges (or lunges)
30 seconds of squat thrusts
30 seconds of squats
30 seconds of push ups
30 seconds of jumping lunges (or lunges)
15 seconds of squat thrusts
15 seconds of squats
15 seconds of push ups
15 seconds of jumping lunges (or lunges)
Check it out in the video below. Good luck with it and I would love to hear your comments after your try it.

Hi Scott,
I tried this work out yesterday. It’s great. I am sore all over today! I was wondering how often it should be done. I was thinking of doing it 3 days a week & doing sprints 3 days a week. Does that sound like a good work out plan or do you think I am over training?
Thanks for all your fantastic advice!

Hi Cassie,
I’m glad you enjoyed the workout and that you tried it and it felt good. I think doing this 3 days a week and doing wind sprints 3 days a week is an excellent plan and you would not be over training. Eventually you can add other elements to your workout like the Bodyweight 500 that I have on the blog. I’ll be putting other workout video clips on here as well as we go along.
Thanks!
