This high-intensity interval training will make you work every single muscle in your body! This 15-minute routine is perfect for those short on time.
Exercises included in our full body home workout routine
Spider Mountain Climbers
Spider Mountain Climbers are a great full-body exercise. They work your quads, glutes, chest, shoulders, arms, and core.
How to do it:
Get into a pushup position with your hands directly under your shoulders.
Bring your right knee to your elbow, quickly switch legs, and bring your left knee to your elbow.
Continue alternating legs at an intensity suitable for you.
Russian Twist
The Russian twist is excellent for toning your obliques and strengthening your core.
How to do it:
Sit on the ground with your knees bent, pull your abs to your spine, and lean back a few inches while keeping your back straight.
Hold your hand at your chest, or extend them straight out in front of you.
Twist to the right, then to the left to complete one rep.
Squat Jumpouts
Squat jumpouts are intense, and they will make you sweat! They work your quads, glutes, and core.
How to do it:
Start in a squat position with your feet shoulder-width apart and your hands at your chest.
Jump up explosively and land in a pushup position.
Immediately jump back into the squat position and repeat.
Dive Bomber Pushups
Dive bomber pushups might be very challenging for beginners, and if you cannot perform them safely, you can try to do knee pushups instead.
How to do it:
Start in a downward-facing dog position with your hands and feet shoulder-width apart.
Slowly lower your chest towards the floor.
Then push back up to the starting position.
Hamstring Walkouts
Hamstring walkouts will improve hamstring resilience and also slightly work your glutes. This exercise is also suitable for improving your posture.
How to do it:
Start in a supinated position with your knees flexed, then perform minim steps until your legs are fully extended at the knee joint.
Bring yourself back into starting position by performing small steps back.
Keep your elbows next to your trunk throughout the movements and drive them into the ground to generate more stability and strength.
Plank Rotations
Plank rotations are great for strengthening the core and obliques. They will help you get a smaller waist by engaging your abdominal muscles.
How to do it:
Start in a forearm plank position with your elbows under your shoulders and your feet hip-width apart.
Keep your hips square to the ground, rotate your body to the right, then back to the center.
Rotate to the left, then back to the center to complete one rep.

Low squat skips are super intense and work your quads, glutes, and calves. They will also help you improve your coordination and balance and test your anaerobic capacities!

Explosively jump up and bring your knees to your chest.

Monkey Pushup into Squats
Monkey pushup into squats is a compound movement that works your upper body muscles and legs. This exercise requires some coordination and might be challenging for beginners! Pay special attention to the form; if it becomes too challenging, you can perform a squat into walkout movement instead.
