Finding time for the gym can seem unattainable for working women like Lena. Often the last item on the to-do list between job, family, and everything else is fitting in a workout.
Lena has, however, cracked the secret on maintaining fitness with a sensible, at-home workout schedule appropriate for her hectic schedule. She advises, “You don’t need fancy equipment or hours of free time to stay in shape.” “All you need is dedication and some imagination.”
Quick and Powerful Exercises
Lena bases her at-home exercise schedule on quick, high-intensity workouts lasting 20 to 30 minutes. “I concentrate on workouts with the most bang for my buck,” she says.
Usually aiming for several muscular areas at once, Lena combines bodyweight workouts including squats, lunges, push-ups, and planks. She says, “these exercises are fantastic since you can do them anywhere and they don’t call for any equipment.”
Count Every Minute Count.
Lena stresses the need to using every minute to its maximum advantage. “You have to work smarter, not harder,” she counsels, “when you are pressed for time.”
She thus combines circuits and supersets into her workouts, performing back-to–back exercises without pause to maintain her heart rate high and maximise calorie burn. “It’s a terrific way to fit in both strength training and cardio in a short amount of time,” she explains.
Flexibility Is Crucial
Lena’s exercise schedule is flexible since she understands that life might change unexpectedly. “Some days, I only have 10 minutes; that’s okay,” she notes. “I’ll get my blood pumping with a brief HIIT session or some bodyweight rounds.”
Lena’s method helps her to modify her program to fit her hectic schedule without feeling bad about skipping an exercise. “Finding balance and doing what you can, when you can is everything.”
