Getting in shape doesn’t have to be long or complicated. Short periods of intense exercise can be just as effective, sometimes more so, than longer workouts that you do with moderate effort.
High-intensity circuit training that you do using only your bodyweight challenges your cardiovascular fitness and gives you a killer, full-body workout if you do it right.
Here are 9 high-intensity no-equipment required exercises that you can do anywhere to start you off with – all you need is your body and some space – whether it’d be indoors or outdoor. The whole workout takes about roughly 20 minutes.
Remember, these workouts are made for the exerciser who wants to get fitter and healthier, and feel great, which is you since you’re reading this. Each of these exercises focuses on one of three goals: cardiovascular fitness, power and strength, and endurance.

3 things to keep in mind before you start:
- You should do each move perfectly every time. These short workouts are meant to be intense, but that doesn’t mean going as hard as you possibly can each time you work out. The idea is to be working hard but to always be able to do another rep or two.
- Be sure to warm up first. Perform a few reps of the movements in the workout, making sure to slowly perform the full range of motion to prepare your body. You should also do some high knees or jumping jacks to get your heart rate up.
- And don’t forget to cool down.
How This Workout Works: Complete each exercise one after the other with the reps and/or time recommended with little to no rest between exercises. Rest up to 1 minute after you’ve complete one circuit. Do the circuit 3 times, working up to 5 per workout. Do this workout 3 times a week on non-consecutive days.
