This 5-minute workout will burn more kgs than an hour class

Time: it’s the number one excuse we use to get out of working up a sweat every day. Stat. Our lives are so busy these days that even going for a quick stroll around the block at lunch has become a thing of the past. But it’s officially time to stop making excuses (soz), and setting aside five short minutes to get your heart rate up with this intense AF workout.

To break it down to you and prove everyone has the time to workout, five-minutes is 0.0035 per cent of your day, which works out to be even less than it sounds seeing as though the average person spends 90 minutes in a single day on their phone scrolling through social media.

The workout is part of Lauren Hannaford’s new fitness program, FHIT – an online streaming workout program you can do anywhere, anytime, and with no equipment. Literally, you can pump it out while waiting for your lunch to heat-up in the microwave.

So here’s to no excuses and hello to a new you. And hey, pretty soon the weather will start warming up and we know you’ll be thanking us then.
