10 minute ‘What’s Going On!?’ Workout -Standing Version-
If you’re waking up in the Morning, stepping outside, taking a deep breath and screaming at the top of your lungs, “what’s going on!?” … Then you probably need to take a break and move some of that energy through your body! Movement is a great strategy for regulating a nervous system that is on constant alert from our world at large. Give yourself the gift of 10 minutes and the ability to breathe a little deeper when you’re done.
This workout is designed as a 10 minute HIIT workout to achieve maximum mood boost in a short period of time. The aim of this type of workout is that you should feel like you are working somewhat hard to hard during the “work” period. However, please listen to your body and move at the pace that feels right for you and is approved by your doctor. Each exercise can be modified to include holding onto a stable surface for balance. You can also add or remove resistance from bands or weights depending on your current abilities.

Intermediate: 40 seconds of work, 20 seconds of rest per exercise (20 seconds per side if exercise is side dependent)
Beginner: 30 seconds of work, 30 seconds of rest per exercise (15 seconds per side if exercise is side dependent)
