[Video] 5-Minute High-Intensity Bodyweight Workout

Looking to get in an intense workout super fast? Try this! This high-intensity bodyweight workout requires no equipment (unlike some bodyweight workouts which require bars for pull ups or dips), so you can do it anywhere - but that doesn't mean it's easy!

This fast, intense workout will give you a quick power boost and rev up your metabolism in just 5 minutes, so it's perfect for those days when you don't have time for a long workout. Or you could add this one into the middle of a strength-training workout to get some cardio in. It includes just 3 sets of 4 full-body exercises, done for 20 seconds each.

This one does not include a warmup or a cool down, so you will want to make sure to add those on your own.

If you want to burn almost 100 calories in just 5 minutes, this is a great workout for you!

[Video] 4-Minute Holiday HIIT Workout

Too busy to keep up your regular workout routine this month? No problem! Remember, it doesn't have to take 2 hours of exercise a day to stay fit during the Christmas season, but it does take consistency. You can still get a great workout in under 5 minutes with the right intensity and dedication. Here is a good example.

This workout only takes about 4 minutes - it's super quick and intense. You can do this one as before breakfast cardio (super fat burner), as finishers to your regular workouts (to get ripped), or just to get some exercise and keep up your fat-burning efforts on days when you don't have time for a full workout.

Please Note: This is a high-intensity workout! You should consult with your doctor or personal trainer before attempting this workout, especially if you are at a low fitness level. Always listen to your body, and pay attention to proper form when performing each exercise to avoid injury.
 
This powerful little workout will help you burn fat not just while you're doing it, but all day long afterwards. With workouts like this, you can keep fit and keep off those holiday pounds, even during the busy holiday season!

[Video] Quick Upper-Body Desk Workout

Stuck at your desk all day, and need a quick workout you can do at the office in just a few minutes? This upper body workout works your arms, shoulders, back, and core, without even getting out of your chair. (These are also good exercises for people with mobility problems, or those in a wheelchair.)

These 5 simple exercises require no equipment at all, and can be done by anyone of any fitness level. Scale the exercises to your needs - if you are already quite fit, try the advanced sequence (hold each exercise for 10-20 seconds instead of 5). The key is to do each exercise with full intensity, no matter how many reps or seconds you do.

The video is 10 minutes long, but he talks quite a bit, so once you learn the exercises, you can probably do them in half the time.
