Short on time? Try these workouts

Some days you're tired, worn out, knackered and just feel like being lazy. One of the first things you do is think about skipping that workout.

You just feel like you don't have an hour or the energy to spare, well I've been there and know how you feel. There have been times where I was out of my home for over 70 hours over 5 days the last thing I wanted to do was have a workout.

So I devised some short, sharp, butt kicking workouts. These take about 10 minutes to do and I'll post some more during the week.

Workout A - Death by Rowing

400 m sprint
1 min rest
400 m sprint
1 min rest
400 m sprint
1 min rest

Fall off rower :-)

When your sprint times are consistently at 1 min 30 sec or quicker then you can throw in a 4th round.

Workout B - Sandbagging

I prefer to do this with sandbags but there's no reason why you can't mix it up with dumbbells, barbells and odd objects

30 sec sandbag clean and jerks (as many reps as possible)
30 sec rest
Repeat twice more then:

30 sec sandbag lunges (AMRAP)
30 sec rest
Repeat twice more then:

10m heavy sandbag walks
15 sec rest
Repeat twice more


That should keep you busy for the time being. I'll post some more workouts during the week, in the meantime why don't you drop me a message or comment about some of your favourite quick workouts. I'd love to hear some crazy and inventive workouts.
