19 Fitness Tips For Lazy Girls From A Personal Trainer

By a reformed lazy girl.

As a personal trainer and website editor of Women's Health UK, I know a thing or two about how to get fit. Yes, even if you're super lazy. Here are my best pointers:

Workouts can be easy or short, but not both at once.

First things first. Decide what kind of lazy girl you are - do you want to minimise your time in the gym, or avoid working up a sweat? Short, intense workouts and long, slow cardio are both great fat-burners. The same can't be said for ten minutes on the cross-trainer watching Keeping Up With The Kardashians. Soz.

You don't have to break a sweat.

The small isometric moves in Barre and Pilates classes will seriously tax your muscles without disturbing your blow-dry. Bonus: If you don't need to take a shower, you can get changed and outta the gym in double-quick time.

The best workouts kill two birds with one stone.

A challenging yoga style (such as Vinyasa flow) will make you stronger as well as saner. Those chaturangas the teacher keeps dropping in? They're tricep press-ups in disguise. Sneaky.
