Written by Aaron Benator, Certified Health Coach | Nov 2, 2021

Want to get a quick workout in but only have 10 minutes? In this exercise routine, we're going to do 10 exercises in 10 minutes — 1 minute per exercise. 

The important thing for this exercise routine is that for one minute, you do as many repetitions as you want. If you find yourself getting a little bit tired, then rest.
