Skip the run – this four-move workout culls calories and strengthens all your muscles in just 10 minutes

A woman performing dumbbell front raises.

Let’s be honest, it can be a real struggle to muster up some enthusiasm to put on your running shoes when the weather outside is looking wet and miserable. Good news is, you don’t have to. This 10-minute workout can be done from the comfort of your home and will strengthen your entire body, build muscle endurance, and leave your heart pumping. It may only be short and sweet, but we guarantee you’ll feel 10 times better than before you started. Just pop on your workout shoes and grab two dumbbells to get going.

This workout follows an AMRAP format and requires you to clock up as many rounds of four exercises within a 10-minute time frame. These types of workouts aren’t just ideal for those days you don’t have a lot of free time, but by using compound exercises– and free weights– you’ll not only strengthen your muscles, but your cardiovascular system system too. This particular workout features lots of great lower-body multi-joint movements, so your quads, calves and hamstrings are still going to get a run for their money, even without pounding the pavement.
