It&#8217;s a <strong>10-minute bodyweight cardio<\/strong> workout with <strong>5 exercises only<\/strong> in <strong>4 rounds<\/strong>. <strong>You&#8217;ll perform each exercise for 30 seconds<\/strong> and the goal is to <strong>complete the 10 minutes without stopping to rest<\/strong>. Seems simple? Well, we made it more challenging by changing the order of the exercises. Here&#8217;s the deal: you&#8217;ll perform the first exercise, followed by the second one, but then you&#8217;ll return to the first one \u2014 you&#8217;ll do so until you complete the first five moves. After that, you&#8217;ll repeat the process but start from the second exercise, thus eliminating the first one. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" type=\"1\">\n<li>Jumping jacks \u2013 Ex1<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Squat jump \u2013 Ex2<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mountain climbers \u2013 Ex3&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Bicycle crunch \u2013 Ex4<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Side to side&nbsp;\u2013 Ex5<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Order how to perform the exercises:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>1st&nbsp;round:&nbsp;Ex1, Ex2, Ex1, Ex3, Ex1, Ex4, Ex1, Ex5&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>2nd round: Ex2, Ex3, Ex2, Ex4, Ex2, Ex5&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>3rd round: Ex3, Ex4, Ex3, Ex5&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>4th round: Ex4, Ex5&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>When you&#8217;re ready, let&#8217;s get moving!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/trial.evofitness.eu\/ch\/?lang=en&amp;utm_source=website&amp;utm_medium=blog-banner&amp;utm_campaign=trial\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/evofitness.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/evo-at-trial-cta-1day-blog-male.png\" alt=\"evo at trial cta 1day blog male\" class=\"wp-image-114637\" srcset=\"https:\/\/evofitness.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/evo-at-trial-cta-1day-blog-male.png 1024w, https:\/\/evofitness.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/evo-at-trial-cta-1day-blog-male-960x422.png 960w, https:\/\/evofitness.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/evo-at-trial-cta-1day-blog-male-768x338.png 768w, https:\/\/evofitness.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/evo-at-trial-cta-1day-blog-male-480x211.png 480w, https:\/\/evofitness.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/evo-at-trial-cta-1day-blog-male-640x281.png 640w, https:\/\/evofitness.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/evo-at-trial-cta-1day-blog-male-720x316.png 720w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">WORKOUT SETUP<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>5 exercises <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>4 rounds<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>30 seconds each exercise<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Always return to first exercise<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Each round eliminate the first exercise<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>10 minutes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Equipment: Exercise mat<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">WORKING OUT FROM HOME?
