Forget the gym — this equipment-free workout builds full-body muscle and boosts your metabolism in just 10 minutes

Want to work out without any equipment? No problem. Exercising with just your own body weight can strengthen and build muscle, improve your core strength, increase your heart rate and boost your mood. If you're not convinced, try out this 10-minute no-equipment session.

The trainer behind this routine is Joe Wicks (also known as The Body Coach), and he brings his enthusiastic energy to this routine as he guides you through each move and the full circuit on YouTube.

His 10-minute bodyweight workout is suitable for all fitness levels and is a HIIT (high-intensity interval training) workout. That means you'll work on each move for 40 seconds and rest for 20 seconds between moves.

You can do it anywhere you have space to squat and lunge, preferably where you can roll out one of the best yoga mats. If you’re ready to build strength, improve your cardio fitness, and boost your metabolism, stay with us.
