It makes sense that we want to make the very best of our workouts, optimising our precious time and burning some serious calories as a result.
There are times when it’s not always possible to complete an hour of exercise and often when things crop up to prevent you getting to your scheduled session, this can open the opportunity to miss a workout entirely.
Falling into this trap can break our stride with great flow and lead to less productive decisions overall, so being armed with a plan B can be key in making the most out of any situation.
Intensity and grit in a short space of time can deliver a powerful punch to your workouts, so why not roll up your sleeves, get stuck in for 30 minutes of hard graft and still shed 500 calories! BOOM!
