QUICK AND EASY FITNESS ROUTINE

Here’s a quick and easy fitness routine to get you moving. It’s perfect for beginners or anyone short on time: Warm-Up (3–5 minutes)

Main Routine (10–12 minutes)

Bodyweight Squats (10–15 reps) Strengthens legs and core. Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, lower down as if sitting in a chair, then rise back up.
Push-Ups (8–12 reps) Targets chest, shoulders, and arms. Do full push-ups or modify with knees down.
Plank Hold (20–30 seconds) Builds core strength. Hold your body straight like a board, resting on forearms or hands.
Jumping Jacks (30 seconds) A great cardio burst to keep your energy up. Cool Down (3–5 minutes)

Feel free to adjust reps and timing based on your fitness level, and repeat the main routine 2–3 times for a fuller workout. Would you like suggestions for variations or a longer routine? Let me know!
