Get ready for a sweaty total body and core workout! By the end of this, you’ll be feeling energized and stronger in both your midsection and entire body. This workout is great if you’re looking for something more fun with less structure. I would choose to do a workout like this when I need a break from the weights but still want to get my heart rate up, feel strong in my body, and be able to feel like I challenged myself. It's a great choice to get you moving when your muscles are sore. Keep them mobile!

In an effort to stay efficient, I infused the warm-up into the first 5 exercises of the workout. So, instead of a stand-alone warm-up on its own, it’s seamlessly built into the beginning of our list of exercises. This bodyweight workout will be in the bored easily format so all you have to do is focus on the exercise at hand and then you won’t see it again in the routine. In total, we will be completing 23 exercises at an interval of 40 seconds active / 10 seconds rest. We will complete 13 of them before a water break and then come back to complete the final 10. After the bored easily HIIT cardio and abs section is fully complete, there will be a short 2-minute isometrics burnout for both the core and the full body. We will complete 4 exercises back-to-back for 30 seconds each. There will be a cool-down at the end to stretch out the main muscles worked. 

This bored easily routine is a fun blend of core and cardio movements to keep you engaged with the workout the whole way through! The exercises are grouped by cardiovascular and more isolated core exercises. During the HIIT cardio exercises, the idea is to move as quickly as you can while maintaining proper form and pacing yourself. During the isolated core exercises, focus on contracting your midsection, moving with quality, and continuing to breathe! While many of the exercises are inherently low-impact, some of them do call for a little jumping. No worries though, as you’re used to, I will be sharing modifications along the way so you’re able to keep this low or high impact as you wish!

Equipment: A mat (we will be doing many floor exercises)

Bonus Tips to Make This a Great Workout

• The first 5 exercises in this routine serve as your warm-up. Be sure to take these exercises slower as you ease into the workout!
• Exercise that mind-to-muscle connection by drawing your abs in and up throughout all the exercises. You'll get so much more out of it!
• During the isometric exercises, focus on contracting every muscle in your body and holding the exercise in the best possible form. For the planks in this section, if your form is suffering, you can drop down to your knees for a modification.

When you’re finished with the workout, I’d love for you to share in the comments one word to describe how you feel once it’s complete! For me, it was energized :)
