Let’s face it… life can get crazy. Workouts can fall on the backburner of our ever-growing to-do lists and end up as the last priority item that never gets crossed off.
For those days, HIIT workouts are the key. You get to workout at a high intensity, for a short period of time and still get the metabolism revving, fat burning benefits of a great workout.
I’ve got the anywhere, anytime workout for you. Make space for yourself for less than half an hour (including squeezing your leggings on!) to have your body thank you for it all day long.
0 equipment. 20 minutes. 5 Moves for about 1 minute each, with 20-30 seconds breaks between moves.
Repeat the circuit for as many times as you need to get your heart rate going, on your schedule!

HIIT Workout for Fat Loss
1. LADDER RUNS, JUMP TURN & HIGH KNEES BACK
Walk in one direction moving your feet quickly with ladder runs. Make a jump turn and head back in the direction you came from doing high knees. Use those arms to help you really raise your knees and keep the body moving! If you need a lower impact version of high knees, march lifting your knees without the jumping motion.
20-30 second break.
2. 10 SQUAT HOPS (IN & OUT) & 10 HIGH LUNGE PUNCHES
Get in a squat position and hop jumping your feet together and then back out into the wider squat. Do 10 of these! Then, punch high while lunging with each leg. Do both moves one more time!
20-30 second break.
3. SWITCH RUNNERS LUNGES
Get into a plank position and then do a runners lunge forward on the left. Now, get back into your plank and repeat the runners lunge on your right side. Try to keep your hips parallel to the floor without lifting them, as much as possible. Another variation of this is to remove the plank and go from runners lunge on your right straight to the runners lunge on your left (no plank), repeatedly.
20-30 second break.
4. 4 HOPS PUNCH FORWARD & 4 AIR JACKS
Hop in forward motion while simultaneously punching forward at the same time. Do four of these and then do 4 air jacks, getting as much air as you can while keep going form!
20-30 second break.
5. BURPEES WITH KNEES TO ELBOWS
Jump into a plank, lift your left knee to your left elbow, then your right knee to your right elbow, then jump back up to standing position! A burpee with a twist 🙂 Repeat these for 1 minute.
20-30 second break.
Repeat the series for a total of 20 minutes, or as many times as is right for your body right now. It may feel quick but the impact for your health and goals is BIG!
