15 min sweat set with Ena
A full-body workout
We all have the right to feel good and comfortable in our own skin, and leading an active lifestyle is something that we actually owe to ourselves for the sake of longevity, ease of movement, physical and mental wellness. It is 2022 and everyone finds themselves busier than ever, so let me get straight to the point: If it is important to you, you will make the time! That really goes for any area of our lives, but exercise is usually one of the things we just write off due to ‘not having time’.
Let me make it easy for you: You do not even need an hour to work out effectively. A little goes a long way if a little is done consistently, and I bet we all have 15 minutes that we can devote to exercise on any given day.
This workout is for anyone (whether you are a beginner or an athlete), anytime and anywhere – no equipment needed!
