lately when i'm pressed for time, i just turn on a timer for 30 min and do a total body workout alternating moves, using just a pair of 5# dumbbells.
example: bicep curls 10 reps shoulder shrugs 10 reps repeat 2x more tricep kickbacks (both arms at the same time) 10 reps calf raises 10 reps repeat 2x more etc. i keep a Hugger Mugger yoga bolster nearby for doing flyes, chest presses, etc.

Using a bolster instead of a stability ball would have saved me 2 surgeries and months of rehab when my ball popped during chest flyes leaving me with a fractured wrist. Reminding everyone how risky weighted exercises on a ball are! |
