7 HIIT Workouts Perfect for the Holidays (Equipment-Free!)

 

One of the biggest excuses people have for not working out over the holidays is that they just don’t have the time.

That’s why I’ve put together this resource list of seven quick but really effective workouts you can do over the next month when you’re totally stressed out and strapped for time.

Each of these workouts can be done using just your own bodyweight, so you can do them at home (or wherever you are for the holidays) without having to take the extra time to trek to a gym.

The workouts themselves range from four minutes long to 16 minutes—so no matter how much time you have, you can still fit one in.

No excuses!

Here are your holiday HIIT workouts:

#1: Fat Burning Equipment-Free HIIT Workout

 

Just because this workout doesn’t use any equipment doesn’t mean it’s not a killer.

Full of exercises like burpee tuck jumps, handstand push ups, side lunges, and more, this is a good workout to do over the holidays to burn some mega calories and get sweaty in no time.

Workout length: 12 minutes
Workout type: Interval

#2: Killer No Equipment Leg Workout

Last time I did this workout, my legs were burning for days!

It’s a great one full of relatively simple yet challenging exercises you can do pretty much anywhere (yep, including a small 2nd floor apartment).

Workout length: ?
Workout type: Time challenge

#3: 4-Minute Busy Day Tabata Workout

Sometimes, you really don’t have more than 4 minutes to spare.

When that happens, this is an awesome go-to workout—it’ll seriously get your lungs working and your muscles screaming for a break even though it’s so short.

Don’t believe me? Try it!

Workout length: 4 minutes
Workout type: Tabata

Just try this leg and conditioning workout and tell me you don’t feel the burn. Full of lunges, air squats, and burpee tuck jumps galore, this one is a good one to come back to time and time again.

#5: No Equipment Silent HIIT Workout

If you’re one of the people constantly asking me for jump-free workouts so you won’t wake up your neighbors every time you work out, make sure to give this workout a shot.

There’s not a single jumping exercise in it so you can keep quiet—but that doesn’t mean it’s easy.

Workout length: 12 minute
Workout type: Interval
