The Snow-Day-Sick-Kid- I-Can't-Get-to-The-Gym Workout

What a winter!  So freezing, so snowy and so many cold viruses.   Most people have the best of intentions to get to the gym but then mother nature gets involved and messes with the plan.  But don't let this get in the way of your fitness goals.  Even 20-30 minutes of activity at home can keep you on track.  Here's what I suggest - no equipment required:

Find a step in your house, step up and down for 1 minute.
15 squats
10 lunges each leg
15 push-ups
15 tricep dips (use a couch or other low piece of furniture)
30 mountain climbers
20 quadrupeds
20 thread the needle - do the pose and hold for 2 - 3 seconds each side
15 bridge presses
30 seconds plank or modified plank

Repeat above for a total of 3 sets.

Be well and keep warm!
