Do you run out of time every day? Is the gym the last thing on your mind? Or do you just work a lot? We are always on the run and we might not be able to work out because of our busy schedules, but it’s important to always squeeze in some time for you. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), nearly 80% of Americans aren’t meeting the recommended weekly amount of exercise. Here are five total workout moves to include in your day that can be done almost anywhere.
Chaturanga Push Press
Repetitions: 10
This push-press combo stretches your entire body.
How to do it: Assume a pushup position, tuck in your feet and raise your hips. You also want to tuck in your head lightly. The work then starts by lowering your hips and moving into full plank position. From here, the elbows need to be bent (keeping them close to your body) and lower your body into a Chaturanga pushup. When your chest is a few inches away from the floor, lift your head and shoulders up to the ceiling, and transition into upward dog. Push your hips back, lowering your chest back to the floor, and press your body back into the starting position.
