Push-ups don’t have to be boring, and you can really try some interesting variations so that you don’t get bored. From standing next to a door or wall and doing as many push-ups as you can, to doing it in the more common way on the floor, or using some weights to add some intensity to your workout, try whatever feels good to you.

Tone Up In The Pouring Months With Squats

Squats can help to tone up your body, and doing it every day will give you significant and visible results. These are especially good for your bum, your lower body, your legs and thighs and even for your core. The best part is, you can do these any time of the day, at home, in a staircase, during your break in office, and also use weights if you want.

Lose The Fat With Burpees

Want to lose some extra fat in the couple of months of monsoon? If yes, then burpees is what you need to do. While the name may sound difficult to relate to a fitness routine, it is one of the most loved exercise that helps to reduce fat. It is an interval style cardio training where you have to combine push-ups, jump up to a squat position and do jumping jacks, one after the other.

Lunge Your Way To Fitness

Whether you do these the easy way, or try to make it tougher by repeating lunges over and over again in a longer set, these can definitely do wonders on your lower body. A lot of people love repeating a mix of squats and lunges, especially if you want to target extra fat on the lower body.

Move Up And Down The Steps

Yes, the stepper exercise has been used a lot, but why not use your home or office staircase this monsoon to add some element of exercise in your daily busy life? All you need to do is find yourself a staircase and go up and down the steps, over and over again.

If you’re bored easily, try switching your exercise and do them for shorter durations, so that you can sustain them for longer.
