20 Minute Home Strength Fitness Workout

I know that sometimes you are too busy to go to the gym so here is a quick 20 minute home strength workout.

This is brilliant for working a lot of muscles and getting a whole body workout.

Warm Up:

• Jog on the spot for 60 seconds
• Warm up by performing 10 repetitions of each workout

The Workout:

• Set your timer for 20 minutes.
• Round 1: Perform the 4 exercises one after the other for 10 repetitions each.
• Rest if needed.
• Round 2: Perform the 4 exercises one after the other for 11 repetitions each.
• Rest if needed.
• Repeat for 13, 14, 15 or whatever you can do with perfect form for 20 minutes.

Cooldown:

• Stretch all the major muscle groups used.

How to progress the workout.

I usually don't like to increase the speed of repetitions for strength workouts as it encourages inertia and momentum to perform the exercises and this leads to poor form and injury.

The best way to progress this home strength workout is to add in one extra exercise for 2-3 workouts and then potentially one more exercise.

Or, you could increase the length of time for the workout as you get fitter. For example 20 minutes for 2 weeks, 25 minutes for 2 weeks and 30 minutes for 2 weeks.

​Hope you enjoy the workout.
