Day 5: Maximise Weight Loss with HIIT Routine

Wasn’t yesterday fun? Well don’t get too comfy, today’s gonna be one for the books!

Day 5: 10-Minute HIIT Mountain Climbers and Planks

How to do it?

• Get yourself warmed up. A few rounds of jumping jacks should do the trick.
• Perform 30 seconds of intense Mountain Climbers. Don’t arch or slump your back!
• Plank for 15 seconds. Hold the position while keeping your glutes and core tight. Keep the back straight.
• Rest for 15 seconds. Get up and take a well-deserved breather.
• Repeat for 10 minutes. Be aware on proper form throughout the workout.

Why it matters?

• Pairing the Mountain Climbers exercise with Planks is an efficient way to include an isometric exercise in your routine.
• Isometric exercises help your body activate all available motor units which carryover to other non-isometric tasks such as lifting exercises.
