Really, No time at all in your day to schedule a 10 or 15 minute workout? 20 minutes is 1.4 % of your day. To be honest with all the benefits exercise has to offer we don’t have time not to workout. So, let’s be honest with ourselves is it that we don’t have time or that we that we haven’t prioritized our time. We make time for what matters — meetings, errands, scrolling social media, watching Netflix.
Reframe Your Mindset
Instead of saying “I don’t have time” Try: “I haven’t made time yet, but I can” Even small stuff counts, a 10 minute walk, 5 minutes of stretching , or 15 minutes of bodyweight exercises all add to that 20-30 minutes of exercise that you need for good health and longevity. Micro workouts = macro results over time.
Audit Your Day
Use your phone’s screen time tracker. Write down how you spend your time in 30-minute blocks for one day. You’ll likely find “hidden time” — even 15-30 minutes.
Redefine What A workout Is
It doesn’t have to be a 1-hour gym session. It can be: 15 minutes of resistance bands at home, 10 squats, pushups, lunges between meetings 20-minute walk after dinner.
Make It Easy To Win
Keep dumbbells or bands where you can see them. Put your sneakers by the door. Schedule workouts like appointments — don’t “find time,” book time.
Bottom Line
You don’t need more time — you need a tiny bit of structure and a shift in mindset.
Replace “I don’t have time” with “I’ll start with 10 minutes.”
