5 Minute Workouts

Here's another 4 minute tabata that works upper and lower at the same time to burn those calories! You only need one dumbbell for these 4 movements. I'm using a 12 lb weight for the whole thing, but you might have to go lighter or heavier for certain moves. These quick tabatas stack really well. So, if you do 3 of them, you're getting 12 minutes of effective WORK!

Here's another 4 minute tabata that stacks well with other short workouts! This one is total body using a pair of dumbbells. I'm using 12s in this video. 

You will repeat these moves twice:

1. squat curl
2. single arm thruster
3. other side
4. reverse lunge side raise

This workout is only 4 minutes, so don't blink or you'll miss it! This is one tabata (8 rounds of 20/10). You don't need any equipment. These quick tabatas are very effective and super fun to stack!

This workout uses a bench to switch things up! You can also use a chair or the edge of your couch or ottoman. You don't need any weights, just something to step up on. 

1. Step Ups
2. Hip Dip Lifts
3. Burpee Pop Squats (you can do this on the floor to make it harder)

Repeat this circuit twice.

I filmed this workout over a year ago and totally forgot to post it! It's a good, solid, basic full body circuit.

You will need a pair of heavier weights for this circuit. I'm using 15s, but try 20s if you want!

This circuit consists of 4 exercises repeated:

1. Squat Curl
2. Rows
3. Step Back Lunges
4. Triceps Overhead

This one starts out with a challenging combo! It also finishes with that same move! #SorryNotSorry 

I show options for everything though, so if any of the moves are too much right now, you can always modify!

This workout uses different movement patterns to effectively work the core in a functional way. You will need one medium dumbbell. I'm using 8 lbs. Beginners, try 5 lbs. Advanced, try 10 lbs. 

This is a fun way to switch up your regular core workouts!

This is such a great old school "Butts & Guts" style workout like we used to do in my classes! We're on the floor with just a mat, and every rep goes to the beat of the music. These kinds of routines are great to add in to your weekly routine b/c they help with frequent activation of the glutes and mobility of the hips, which is all sooooo important! 

This full body workout hits the legs, biceps, triceps, shoulders, obliques, and a dash of cardio! I'm using a pair of 10 lb dumbbells for the entire routine. The whole thing is done standing and the time flies by b/c it's a fun one!

These are the movements I try to do every day:

Open Book

Cat Cow

Puppy Pose - Reach Under

Hip 90/90

5 minutes of mobility work will make a huge difference in the way you move and feel!

This is now my favorite back workout! It's so nice, you might want to do it twice!

You'll need heavier dumbbells if you have them. This routine really attacks the back muscles in an effective way. 

I'm using a pair of 20s, 10s, and one 15 lb dumbbell. 

If you have a barbell, it works great for the last exercise, underhand grip rows. 

This core workout is great for ANY fitness level! These moves are easy to follow and super effective. This is the perfect routine to throw on at the end of another workout to add in some quick ab work!
