Discover 8 workouts to do at home in under 10 minutes to help you lose weight and build muscle.
8 sessions of 10 minutes to lose weight at home
No need to face the crowd of gyms. For most of us, we have the option of going to the gym twice a day: before going to work, or after. These two times are peak hours, which means the crowd factor is 10. Locker rooms, crowded. Showers, crowded. Dumbbell rack, crowded. Benches, crowded… and full of sweat. You understood. Your mood is affected, your workouts suffer, and the results may decrease. Not to mention the fact that everyone looks at you like you’re a moron because you’re trying to do a superset or a circuit.
Okay, we’re not trying to boycott the gym. It would be crazy. But maybe it’s time to get some fresh air and take a break. These 8 workouts are quick, effective, and you don’t even have to leave the comfort of your own home. It’s up to you the extra pounds and the muscles. Your partner will be all the happier about it.
