http://ifttt.com/images/no_image_card.png

Going to the gym is something we all have to do every day. Some days, however, we all wish we don’t have to. If you feel like not spending more than an hour at the gym, this low-impact interval training by  Grokken trainer Jaime Mcfadden may make you a believer. Best thing about it: it only lasts for 10 minutes!

High intensity interval training has long been touted to be extremely beneficial to shedding off serious pounds, more so than other types of training. And this featured low impact interval training will live up to the hype. Each move lasts for 45 seconds, with 15 seconds of rest at each interval where you can still work your core. And you do not need an expansive space: as long as you have a little space that allows you to move freely, you’re good to go.

Try these low Intensity Interval exercises below!

  • Reverse lunge with knee tuck. Keep your feet hip-width apart and step the right foot backwards to form a reverse lunge. Shift all of your weight then to your left foot and get your glutes working, then brace your core. Next, bring your right foot forward while also jumping off your left foot so you can bring your right knee to your chest. Land on your left foot, and start the lunge on the other side.
  • Push-up with reach. Settle yourself in the push-up position and as you lower your chest close to the ground, slide one of your hands out in front of your body and keep the arm extended. Push both hands to the ground and squeeze your abs and go back to the start position. Repeat on the other side.
  • Plie squat. Stand with feet slightly more than shoulder width apart. Hold a dumbbell between your legs with both hands while keeping your head up and your back straight. Lower yourself into a sitting position and hold it for 10 to 20 seconds. Then push both feet to the ground and get back up to the starting position.
  • Dips. Raise yourself on two dip bars with your arms. Lower your body until your shoulders are below your elbows. Then push yourself back up.
  • Standing crunch. The last exercise of this low intensity interval training, start by standing with feet hip width apart with your knees slightly bent. Lift your right leg and bend the knee at a 90-degree angle. Put your hands on either side of your head, but do not lock your fingers or pull your head. Crunch your right knee to your right elbow, while keeping your chest lifted and your spine neutral. Switch legs and repeat.
