Description

No time? No problem. In this episode, we’re breaking down why you don’t need long, drawn-out gym sessions to get results. With the right structure and intensity, 15 minutes can be all you need to build strength, burn fat, and boost energy.

We’ll cover:

  • Why short, intense workouts work for busy schedules

  • How the afterburn effect keeps you burning calories long after you finish

  • Simple formats like AMRAPs, EMOMs, and circuits to maximize results in minimal time

  • How to choose the right exercises for a full-body workout in under 20 minutes

If you’ve been skipping workouts because you “don’t have time,” this episode will help you see that progress is possible—even with the smallest window in your day.

Challenge: Commit to three 15-minute workouts this week and track how you feel.
