Ladies, staying in great shape is pretty simple—in theory. You'll see many articles that tell you to move more and restrict calories and—voilà—you'll look amazing. But what if you have a busy work schedule, grown-up challenges, and obligations? I've developed five of the best weekly workouts for women to stay fit that you can seamlessly work into your hectic routine.
My advice: Rather than sticking to rigid ranges (like "150 minutes per week"), it may be more productive to create weekly "minimums." For example, every week, do at least two workouts—that's it. Anything more is a bonus, but at the minimum, you'll do two. That way, you remove a lot of pressure from yourself and you can maintain a solid level of fitness.
The next problem, however, is that many people don't do effective workouts. They simply walk on the treadmill and perform a few bicep curls and call it a "workout;" but there's no way you'll stay in shape that way. Instead, focus on a full-body routine that not only strengthens important muscles, but also improves your cardiovascular fitness so you stay healthy, strong, and fit.
In this article, I'll walk you through five fabulous weekly workouts for women to stay fit. These are fast and high-octane so you'll get more results in less time than before. Pick any two (or more), do them weekly, and you will see your fitness soar.
