4 Minute Workouts in Europe
Funny workout story for you from here in Lithuania…
…on Thursday morning at 11:35am (Denmark local time), I entered the SAS lounge in Copenhagen airport.
My brain was a little foggy from my overnight flight from Toronto, but I had a 3-hour layover and 2-hour left to get to Vilnius, Lithuania. From there, I had a 90-minute drive to the summer camp where I’ve been teaching business and fitness to 50 college kids from over 35 countries around the world.
I knew I wouldn’t have any time to exercise at the camp, so I decided to slip into one of the large restroom stalls in the SAS lounged and I did a 4-minute bodyweight squat “Punisher” workout (just to say that I’ve worked out in an airport!).
If you know anything about the “Punisher” workout (or you’ve watched my YouTube video of it), you know that it leaves your legs…well, um, punished…in just 4-minutes.
It’s amazing the workout you can do in less time than it takes to boil an egg when you use my Home Workout Revolution System.
But that wasn’t the only 4-Minute workout I’ve done this weekend. Since we’re way out in the beautiful Lithuanian countryside with no equipment (except for a swing-set for pull-ups), I’ve been hitting short, burst bodyweight exercises all the time.
Here’s a 4-minute session that I gave to the students on Friday (this is a perfect Workout Finisher, too):
1A) Total Body Extension – 30 seconds
1B) Push-up or Spiderman Pushup – 30 seconds
1C) Prisoner Lunge (alternating sides) – 30 seconds
1D) Ab Walkout (similar to Ab Wheel Rollout) – 30 seconds
– Without rest, repeat one more time for a total of 4-minutes.
Another group of students received this 4-Minute 8-exercise circuit:
1A) Narrow-Stance Bodyweight Squat – 30 seconds
1B) Prison Squat Jump – 30 seconds
1C) Mountain Climber – 30 seconds
1D) Run-in-Place (RIP!) – 30 seconds
1E) Burpees – 30 seconds
1F) Total Body Extension – 30 seconds
1G) Narrow Stance Bodyweight Squat – 30 seconds
1H) Squat Thrust – 30 seconds
Good times!
Alright, and one more for the road…this time, the extra 4-minute Upper Body Annihilation workout I did after the above circuit:
2A) Pullups – 30 seconds
2B) Decline Push-ups – 30 seconds
2C) Hanging Leg Raise – 30 seconds
2D) Dips – 30 seconds
– Without rest, repeat one more time…or if you’re a meathead like ol’ CB, go for 3-4 rounds instead of 2.
Great times!
Sound like fun? Wish you were training here with me?
Well, unless you can get a flight to Lithuania and be here in 10 hours, you’re out of luck. We’re leaving for Croatia (for a holiday) very soon.
Otherwise, you can train with me, at home, using 4-minute workout videos here…and at 7 measly bucks, it’s a lot cheaper than heading to Europe.
