If you don't have time to spend hours in the gym everyday or if you don't have time to go to the gym at all, here is one kind of highly effective workout you can get in less then 40 minutes. This workout will turn your body into a furnace if performed regularly. Perform this powerful combination of exercises every other day to get maximal results.
Begin your session by warming up. If you have cardiovascular machines available like the rowing machine or the elliptical machine, 5 to 10 minutes at medium intensity on one of those machines should be fine. If you don't have those machines available here is what you can do instead.
Body weight warm-up: Perform each of these exercises in a row for 45 seconds each taking 15 seconds of rest between them. You can do this combination twice for a better warm-up.
1. Jumping Jacks
2. Military Squats
3. Mountain Climber
4. Burpees
Now lets start the workout: Chose weights that enable you to perform 12 to 15 repetitions if you have a intermediate level. If You're more advanced chose weights that enable you to perform 8 to 10 repetitions. Our goal here is to perform 3 compound exercises in a row taking the least rest possible between them. At the end of the super-set take 2 to 3 minutes rest and restart 2 more times. Make sure you're respecting the strict form for each repetition.
1. Dumbbells/Barbell Press-Ups
2. Dumbbells/Barbell Bent-Over-Rows
3. Dumbbells/Barbell Squats
If you are working out outside and you don't have any dumbbells or barbells at all, you can always replace the press-ups by the push-ups or the jumping push-ups to make it a bit harder. The barbell or dumbbell squats you can replace by the jumping squats and the rows by some kind of pull-ups or chin-ups if you find somewhere to hang into.
Once you're done with the resistance training it's time to kick in some HIIT (High intensity interval training). Here you can chose any type of cardiovascular exercise or machine you want. You can run on the treadmill or outside, you can do burpees or rope skipping, whatever your choice is doesn't matter. You just need to remember to go as hard as you can on the acceleration phase.
Here is one example of HIIT you can use as a template for your training:
If you're outside, start jogging for 40 seconds and then sprint for 20 seconds at your maximal speed. Repeat this pattern 6 times and then cool down by walking a few minutes.
Good Luck.
