Ooh, it's raining outside. I don't want to get wet...

Well, if you're a bit precious about getting wet when you workout (I'll just add in here that it can be quite refreshing..), and you just want a nice workout you can do at home with minimal or no equipment... here you go!

Warmup:
1 minute skipping (if you don't have a rope, just pretend - arms 'n all!)
1 minute lunges
1 minute squats - if you have a swiss ball use this against the wall and do wall squats
Repeat
Stretch out quads, hamstrings & chest lightly

Circuit workout - perform 10-12 reps of each exercise in a circuit fashion - ie go straight onto the next exercise, no rest
Burpees
Alternating stationery lunge - or walking lunge
Ab crunches
Squat jumps
Tricep dips
Reverse leg curl on swiss ball - or single leg bridge lifts if you don't have a ball
Pushups
- have a quick drink/breather, then run through circuit again another 2- 3 times.

Cool down with 2 mins skipping and light stretching for chest, arms, shoulders, hamstrings, quads and calves

Enjoy :-)
