Easy 10-Minute Morning Exercise Routine for Beginners at Home

Warm-up (2 minutes)

• Jumping jacks: 20 repetitions
• High knees: 20 repetitions
• Butt kicks: 20 repetitions
• Arm circles: 10 forward circles, 10 backward circles

Workout (8 minutes)

• Squats: 10 repetitions
• Push-ups: 5 repetitions (if you can’t do push-ups, do wall push-ups or incline push-ups)
• Lunges: 10 repetitions per leg
• Crunches: 15 repetitions
• Plank: 30 seconds

Cool-down (1 minute)

• Stretching: Hold each stretch for 30 seconds

Repeat this routine 2-3 times per week.

Here are some tips for getting the most out of your workout:

• Warm up before you start exercising. This will help to prevent injuries.
• Focus on form over speed. It’s better to do fewer repetitions with good form than to do more repetitions with bad form.
• Listen to your body. If you’re feeling pain, stop the exercise and rest.
• Stay hydrated. Drink plenty of water before, during, and after your workout.

If you’re new to exercise, start slowly and gradually increase the intensity and duration of your workouts over time. And most importantly, have fun!

Here are some variations of this routine that you can try as you get more advanced:

• Add weights to your squats, lunges, and push-ups.
• Increase the number of repetitions or sets for each exercise.
• Add a cardio component to your workout, such as jumping jacks, jogging in place, or running up and down stairs.

No matter what level you’re at, a 10-minute morning workout is a great way to start your day. It’s a quick and easy way to improve your mood, boost your energy, and get your body moving.
