Even better, there’s no equipment needed for this strength building, full-body workout.
For this do-anywhere, anytime workout, all you need is your water, a towel and a smile! No gym necessary. Perform each of the following exercises for 15 repetitions each. The second round through is 14, then 13, then 12, etc. until all exercises are done at one repetition each. The goal is to finish the entire set in 20 minutes. This creates a strong workout in a reasonable amount of time.
If you don’t finish all the reps in 20 minutes, don’t worry! Build off of each workout and improve your strength each time to you get closer and closer to full completion. Your workout won’t be its strongest on day one. The goal is to build strength. Enjoy!
Half Burpee
- Jump your feet about shoulder-width apart.
- Then jump both feet up and outside your hands so you’re in a squat position.
- Complete the rep by standing up with arms over your head, or to mod up, jump straight up!
Steam Engine
- Standing with your feet slightly wider than shoulders, take your hands behind your head with elbows wide.
- Lift your left knee to waist level or higher and touch the left knee with the right elbow.
- Do the same for the other side. One full repetition equals right and left side. Be sure to keep your core engaged. The faster you go, the more calories you will burn.

Push Up
- Starting in a high plank position with your hands under your shoulders.
- Keeping a tight core, inhale as you slowly bend your elbows and lower yourself until your elbows are at a 90-degree angle. Exhale as you begin contracting your chest muscles and pushing back up through your hands to the start position. To modify, go down to your knees to perform the move.

Jump Squat

There are many options to keep physically fit without a gym membership. Research online for many free resources that help you stay healthy while at home. Of course, online does offer paid memberships as well. A personal coach is accessible via the internet if that fits your lifestyle. Keep in mind, the routine needs to fit your life and your physical abilities.
If you have any underlying medical conditions talk to your doctor before beginning any new exercise routine. Discuss what they feel is a safe routine for you to begin with and what goals you may want as you advance. There are routines available for all ability levels.
