Plank Get-up
Begin by a low plank with forearms on the floor and parallel, elbows under the shoulders. Take the upright forearm and press it with the palm to spread the arm straight. Then repeat the same with a left to come into high plank posture, as level as possible keep hips. Reverse the whole movement back to start; that’s one rep. Keep doing ten reps, and alternating with arms, then quickly continue to your next move. Do at least six to eight total, as and when you complete all exercises, take a rest for 30 seconds to 1 minute. Then repeat the same twice for a total of three more rounds.
Kettlebell Swing
Begin with a hinge; knees bent a little, hips at the back, torso forward leaned at forty-five degrees catching the handle of a kettlebell with both the hands, extended arms straight to the floor and bell in between knees. In one movement, squeeze glutes, legs are straighter, raise your torso, and push hips forward while swinging the whole weight at chest height by keeping consecutive arms and tight core. Reverse this movement by bringing the kettlebell in between thighs one at a time as you hinge. That’s a total of one rep. Do a total of 10 reps, then quickly continue to your next move. Do at least six to eight. When you are done with all exercises, take a rest for 30 seconds to 1minute. After that, repeat the same cycle twice for three more rounds.
Mountain Climbers
Mountain climbers are a great total body exercise. Don’t go by the name; the good news is you don’t need to climb any physical mountain. All you need to do is get into a high plank position, with your hands a little wider than your shoulders, abdominals braced, and then draw one knee in without lifting the hip. You should keep alternating your legs; the faster you go, the faster your heart rate will shoot up. But the key is to keep your arms over the wrists to be able to maintain the plank.
100 Meter Sprint
While you may not be an athlete, however, you can still attempt a 100-meter sprint as it improves your overall health too in a short time. First, you should do some warm-ups for about 5-10 minutes and then get your body into a lunch position. Sprint off as hard as you can. Some 3-4 sprints are good enough to get you sweating.Â
Inchworm
This exercise involves your core, hands, shoulders, and legs. First, you should stand with your feet apart and abs tight. Get into a high plank position, with your hips high and hands stretched out. Now without bending your knees, walk your hands forward. Walk your hands back towards your feet and stand up. Repeat. The key is to move your hands fast and your shoulders away from your ears.

But, always remember overtraining may have some serious repercussions on your health, and also don’t forget to step up on your nutrition to support your body for a fitness regime.
