Ladies 10 minutes workout at home
Sometimes, life gets busy, and finding time for a long workout just isn’t realistic. But don’t worry! A 10-minute home workout can be just as effective when done consistently. It’s simple, effective, and doesn’t require any equipment. You can do it in the comfort of your living room or bedroom—just set aside 10 minutes to focus on yourself! Here’s a few exercises you could work into your routine:
1. Jumping Jacks (1 minute)
Start by getting your heart rate up with jumping jacks. Stand with your feet together and arms at your sides. Jump your feet out to the sides while raising your arms overhead, then jump back to the starting position. Keep a steady pace and make sure to engage your core as you move.
2. Bodyweight Squats (1 minute)
Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, toes slightly pointing out. Lower your hips down and back as if you’re sitting into a chair, keeping your chest lifted and push through your heels to return to standing. Focus on form and go as low as you can for maximum effect.
3. Plank (1 minute)
Hold a plank position on your forearms with your body forming a straight line from head to heels. Engage your core, glutes, and thighs to maintain stability. If this is too hard, you can drop to your knees but try to hold the plank position for the full minute to build strength.
4. Leg pull in knee (1 minute)
Lie on your back and use a resistance band or your own body to pull your leg toward your chest or overhead. Alternatively, for leg raises, lift your legs toward the ceiling while keeping them straight, then slowly lower them back down without touching the floor. Engage your core throughout.
5. Push ups (1 minute)
For upper body strength, go for classic push-ups. Start in a plank position with your hands slightly wider than shoulder-width apart. Lower your body toward the floor, then push back up. Modify by doing knee push-ups if needed. Focus on keeping your body in a straight line throughout the movement.
6. Cool down and stretch (1 minute)
Finish with a gentle stretch to relax your muscles. Focus on stretching your hamstrings, quads, and arms. Take deep breaths to lower your heart rate and release any tension.
HOT TIP: Repeat the whole circuit 2-3 times to get a more intense workout and mix it up each day for variety so it doesn’t get boring.
A 10-minute workout routine is perfect for any busy woman who wants to stay active and healthy without dedicating an hour to exercise. Do it daily, and you’ll start feeling stronger, more energised, and ready to take on the day!
