If you don’t have access to the gym and
your local surroundings leave you uninspired, cardiovascular workouts can be
rather dull. Despite this, working out at home or even at work during breaks
needn't be a tiresome chore. Simple, breezy exercises can be fun and also help
you stay on top of weight management in a largely idle lifestyle such as office
work. Why not try quick bursts of the following?
·
Lunges
Not only are lunges good fun but they also
have a playful element to them too. If you get caught lunging around in the
changing room or outside during a work break, chances are you can just laugh it
off and people will want to join in. Read here how to pull off a perfect lunge.
· Marching
Marching is incredibly beneficial and
again, plenty of fun if you do it to music in quick five minute bursts. Find a
spacious spot and march in place consistently for five minutes while bringing
your knees up to your waist (if you can!) every time. This will work your
thighs, hips, abdominal and buttock muscles and you’ll feel fantastic once you
get in the swing of things. Try and repeat this twice a day and you’ll slowly
but surely build up stamina and strength.
·
Squats
Another great work out that can be
completed in 5-6 minutes in a stationary position. Squatting will tone your
hips and offer an efficient build up to lower strength you never thought
attainable. We recommend doing as many reps as you can in 30 second bursts over
several minutes. Try and keep symmetrical and sturdy and lower yourself as much
as possible before getting back up.
