10-Minute Hardcore Abs
“Ab workouts can be done anywhere and at any time. Just went on a run and want to burn a few extra calories? Perfect. Grab a mat, find some carpet and let’s get to work! For this particular one, you’ve got two options: you can grab your phone and set a timer. Each exercise can be done for 30 seconds, then you move on to the next. Take a break when needed! Or, if you like to keep track, do 3 sets of 10 for each exercise.” — Katelyn
10-Minute Arm Sculpt
“I LOVE WORKING THE ARMS! If you don’t have free weights, you can order them online. I like 3 lb. weights for this series, but 2s and 1s are great, too! And I’ll just go ahead and mention that a wine bottle weighs 2.5 pounds. As I went through this 10-minute series I did between 8-12 repetitions of each exercise. If you’re feeling strong at 8 reps, keep going. If you can barely keep the arms up, shake it out and move on to the next exercise! To really feel that burn, go through this twice. And maybe put one of the other workouts — abs and/or booty — in between to let those arms rest for a bit.” — Zoe
10-Minute Booty Blast
“We all love a good leg and booty workout, especially for those hard-to-tone areas. For this booty blast, we recommend doing sets. You can do 3 sets of 10 for each exercise, or just crank out how many reps you can within 30 seconds for each one! Have a weight? Awesome, add a little challenge. Don’t have a weight? Totally fine too. You can stick with bodyweight or grab a wine bottle or fill up a stockpot with cans.” — Katelyn
10-Minute Stretch & Unwind
“Sound on for this one as I walk you through some feel-good, restorative stretching and spinal movement. Did you know that your spine moves in six directions? It’s important to work all six of those directions every day to keep the spin young and healthy. It makes me feel taller, stronger and less slouchy when I’m on the couch (which we’re all seeing a bit more of these days). I incorporate some classical Pilates here, and I sneak in a little bit of ‘work’, too.” — Zoe
