How To Get Fit In 35 Minutes

A quick and easy way to feel good about yourself

Story by Aubrielle Camacho

Are you short on time or lack motivation? Everyone has responsibilities; whether it’s work, class, homework, or family issues. That doesn’t mean you can’t take care of your body, while taking care of everything else. Many people push off exercise because they’re too busy or have no time. I am going to give you a simple and in my opinion, one of the best fat burning workouts that can be completed in just 35 minutes.

Jump rope (1 minute)

Grab a jump rope, and jump without stopping for one minute.

High knees (1 minute)

In a standing position bring your legs up to your chest and rotate right leg, left leg.

Butt kicks (1 minute)

In a standing position kick your leg back hitting your butt with your foot, rotating right leg, left leg.

Jumping jacks (1 minute)

Just like you learned in grade school.

Burpees (1 minute)

Jump with your hands in the air and then go down into a push up position. Do a push up, jump back up with hands in the air. Repeat for 1 minute.

Run (10 minutes)

Pretty simple. Go jog around your neighborhood and get some fresh air!

Push-ups (do 10)

You know what these are!

Tricep dips (do 10)

Find something stable that you can grab onto and face away from it, reach back with your arms and grab onto the surface. From there you bring your legs extended from your body and begin to bend your arms, almost like a reverse elevated push up.

Plank (30 seconds)

Put yourself in a pushup position and bring your body up onto your elbows and toes.

Run for 10 minutes

I promise you can do it!

Jump rope (1 minute)

Grab a jump rope, and jump without stopping for one minute.

Squats (1 minute)

Stand and spread your feet a little more than shoulder length apart. Squat down keeping your back straight and butt low.

Flutter kicks (1 minute)

Lay flat on your back with your hands either at your side or under your butt and legs straight out in front of you slightly off the ground. Flutter your legs simultaneously without touching the ground.

Reverse crunches (1 minute)

Lay on your back, ankles crossed, and hands behind your head. From there reach one elbow to the opposite knee and then switch to the next.

You’ve made it! In the time you could have been watching an episode of “Orange Is The New Black,” you’ve completed a fat-burning workout!
