How to do this mini workout.
The workout consists of 3 sessions of 5 minutes each, so you will need a timer or stopwatch.
The exercises are named with 5 letters: A, B, C, D, E.
-
Set the timer to 5 minutes and do the first 4 exercises without stopping (ABCD), for a number of 8 repetitions per exercise. So from the first to the fourth.
This means that you have to repeat the first exercise A a number of 8 times, then go straight to the second B and so on up to the fourth D. At the end of the eighth repetition of the fourth you have to go back to the first and repeat the cycle of 4 exercises and so on. each time until 5 minutes have elapsed. You don’t have to take breaks. When the timer rings, so at the end of the 5 minutes, you have 30 seconds to take a breath and sip some water.
-
Reset the timer to 5 minutes and do exercises B, C, D and E now. You basically don’t have to do the first one.
Always in the same way, therefore starting from B eight repetitions, for C the same and so on. On the eighth repetition of exercise E, repeat the cycle from B without pausing and so on until the timer runs out. You can now take a 30 second break and reset the timer for your last session.
-
For the third session you have to do all 5 exercises for 8 repetitions per exercise without stopping, at the end of E resume from A. All for 5 minutes.
The purpose of this workout, which you can also do every day since they are low impact exercises, is to do the 8 repetitions as fast as possible in the 5 minutes of each cycle. It is important that when the 5 minutes are up you stop, no matter where you are from. Over time, you will be faster and repeat the cycle several times within 5 minutes.
