10 Minutes to A Healthier YOU - Exercise

Ok...you are have decided to incorporate some heart-rate raising exercise into your life...BUT...you have no equipment and little time and post Christmas...you're broke.  No problem (darn...there goes all the excuses!)...I bet you have a body and I bet you have access to stairs, a step or a little plastic stool for reaching into cupboards...(gotcha!)

Here is how it works....either go up and down the stairs, or step one foot at a time onto a step or stool (just alternate which foot goes up first every round) -

1 round = 30 sec of going up and down (speed will depend on your fitness level), then 30 sec of rest*

WEEK             1        2       3        4        5         6     
       
ROUNDS         5        7       8       9       10       10
PER SESSION

TIME (in min)   5       7       8       9       10       10

*If you are fitter, you can rest less and step/climb for longer 


So, what are you wating for now...you can fit this in anytime and just about anywhere!
