Sometimes we simply can’t make it to the gym.
Sometimes we don’t even have 30 minutes to workout, let alone the hour we think we need to get results.
And that is why it’s essential we have quick workouts we can do ANYWHERE using just our own bodyweight.
We also need to stop thinking that longer workouts mean better results.
Because they don’t.
Use the time you have wisely and the results will add up.
Especially if we are consistent with our plan!
Consistency is key if we want results, even if being consistent sometimes means swapping in a shorter workout to keep us in the habit and routine.
Something is better than nothing – especially when you use even just those 6 minutes wisely!
So whether you are short on time, traveling or simply want to create a REALISTIC workout routine that fits your busy schedule, try these 4 Bodyweight Cardio Workouts!
