15-Minute Monday Morning Home Workout
Good morning and welcome to our Monday morning home workout video!
Starting your day off with exercise can help increase your energy levels, improve your mood, and set a positive tone for the rest of your day. In this video, we will be guiding you through a series of exercises that you can do from the comfort of your own home, so let’s get started!
This workout should take approximately 20-30 minutes, depending on how many sets and reps you choose to do.
It’s suitable for beginners or those with intermediate fitness levels.
- We’ll start with some simple stretches to warm up our muscles. Begin by standing with your feet hip-width apart and your arms at your sides. Take a deep breath in and raise your arms up overhead, then exhale and lower them back down. Repeat this movement 5 times, focusing on breathing deeply and stretching your entire body.
- Next, we’ll move on to some cardio exercises to get your heart rate up. Start with jumping jacks, doing 3 sets of 20 reps each. Then, move on to high knees, running in place and bringing your knees up to hip height for 30 seconds. Take a short break, then repeat these exercises two more times.
- After cardio, we’ll focus on strength training. Begin with push-ups, doing 3 sets of 10 reps each. If push-ups are too challenging, modify the exercise by doing them on your knees or against a wall. Next, move on to squats, doing 3 sets of 12 reps each. Keep your feet hip-width apart and lower down as if you are sitting back into a chair.
- Finally, we’ll end with some cool-down stretches to help your muscles recover. Begin by standing with your feet hip-width apart and your arms at your sides. Take a deep breath in and raise your arms up overhead, then exhale and bend forward, reaching for your toes. Hold this stretch for 20 seconds, then slowly roll back up to standing. Repeat this movement 3 times.
Congratulations, you’ve completed your Monday morning workout!
