This 15-minute weight loss workout mixes cardio bursts with big compound moves to keep your heart rate high and maximize calorie burn. It opens with a short warm-up, moves into a 5-exercise circuit you repeat 2 times, and finishes with a cool-down stretch.

FAQ

Is a 15-minute weight loss workout enough?

Yes, short sessions work, especially on busy days. 15 minutes done consistently adds up, and you can stack two routines back to back when you have more time.

How often should I do this weight loss workout?

Aim for 3 to 5 times a week, mixed with daily walking. Increase the level once the current one feels easy.

Can beginners do this workout?

Yes. The beginner version uses easier exercise variations and longer rest. Move at your own pace, and keep good form over speed. Pause the timer whenever you need to.

Do I need any equipment?

A set of resistance bands. Loop bands work for the lower-body moves and handled tube bands for presses and rows; choose a tension that challenges the last few reps.
