Ideas for exercise snacks include taking the stairs, brisk walking, bodyweight exercises, jumping rope, and doing chores. These quick routines can be easily incorporated into daily activities to benefit heart health, regardless of age or fitness level.

Fitness trainer Kayla Itsines shares a 10-minute bodyweight abs finisher circuit consisting of five exercises that target the abs and obliques while raising the heart rate to burn fat. The routine can be added to the end of a longer weights workout or done as a standalone workout with proper warm-up exercises. Itsines demonstrates each movement on her Instagram, and additional form guides are available for unfamiliar exercises. Other short abs routines are also recommended for variety and intensity.
