TRY THIS SEVEN-MINUTE WORKOUT

Get started with Harris’ ultimate seven-minute workout – no equipment needed!

Just make sure you have enough space to do it in, and check with your GP if you’re unfit and are unsure about whether it’s safe for you to exercise.

MINUTE 1

Start with 60 seconds of marching on the spot. Bring alternate knees directly up in front of you, aiming for belly-button height. Do this as quickly as you can.

MINUTE 2

Speed squats for 60 seconds. Squat, bending your knees and sending your bum backwards while keeping your knees in line with each other. Return to a standing position by pushing down through your heels. Aim to do as many as possible in the time while paying attention to your form.

MINUTE 3

Sit-ups for 60 seconds. Lie on the floor with your knees bent and feet flat. Clench your stomach muscles and lift your head and upper body until you are sitting up, then slowly lower to the floor.

MINUTE 4

Speed punching for 60 seconds. Standing tall with one foot in front of the other and your hands squeezed into fists, throw your left hand forward in front of you, then snap it back to starting position. Do the same with the right, then alternate, doing it as fast as you can.

MINUTE 5

Star jumps for 60 seconds. From a standing position, jump your feet out wide while you lift both arms out to the side and up above your head at the same time. Then jump back to the start position.

MINUTE 6

Burpees time! From standing, bring both hands to the floor, then jump both feet back so you’re in a plank position. Then jump your feet back to the top, stand up and jump.

MINUTE 7

Skipping for 60 seconds. Hold a skipping rope (real or imaginary) in your hands. On your toes, shift your weight from side to side as you skip.
