BeWOW: 30 On, 20 Off

This week's Be Well workout has built-in rest periods—but that doesn't mean you'll be phoning it in.

This week’s workout is super easy to follow but will challenge you from head to toe. For each of the 10 exercises below, you’ll follow the same pattern: 30 seconds of work, followed by 20 seconds of rest—repeat five times. In other words, you’ll do as many reps of one exercise as you can for 30 seconds, rest for 20 seconds, and then repeat the same work/rest pattern four more times before moving on to the next exercise.

The goal, of course, is to complete five rounds of each exercise. But if your form is beginning to suffer and you’ve had enough before you do all five, just do as many as you can! Next time you do this workout, try adding another round until you can do five. Sound good? Now, let’s get to work.
