Fitness, first thing

This 16-min HIIT session is the key to staying on top of your fitness this month

Whether you’re an early bird or not, sometimes finding the motivation to get a sweat on as soon as you rise can be tough. But this high-intensity, Tabatainspired workout is so quick and easy that you won’t even think twice about crawling out of bed and into the gym to get it done and dusted.

The workout targets the entire body, switching it up between lower body, upper body and core moves to encourage the heart to work hard to pump blood all over the body. Remember to keep the pace fast and effort high, as the intensity will also promote fat loss. Plus, you can expect to boost strength from head to toe, get fit fast and speed up your metabolism.
