5 minute pre bed workout

AJL_Daddy

5 minutes before bed. Want to work out a little. What should I do? Go! (Already thinking bodyweight squats and standard-to-forearm planks).

ETA...I hit the gym in the morning. This is just an additional supplement.

5 knuckle shuffle is the obvious choice.

Why 5 minute? Why not 8 or 10 or 11?

What am I? Mr. Olympia?

Yoga before bed. Flexibility (and balance) are components of fitness as well. This may help reduce risk for injury too.

I would think any workout would be counter-intuitive to getting the body relaxed and ready to sleep? Maybe yoga or stretching, but nothing more strenuous than that.

Just try some static stretching maybe. It won't get your adrenaline going and shouldnt' affect your sleep.
