Are you constantly looking at your watch just wondering where the day went?  So much still to do,not enough time to do it in.    You try to balance your busy lifestyles by cutting in to your "me" time.  Your exercise routine now occupies the back seat.  Since you do not have  time for gym  I am giving you a fat burning routine you can do  from the comfort of your home to stay healthy and fit.  You to not need a home gym or any expensive equipment for this.  This is just a 20 minutes fat burning workout schedule you can easily perform in the comfort of your own home.

3) Crunches - To work the muscles of the rectus abdominis: 15 repeats
Lie flat on your back with your knees bent. Place your hands behind your head with elbows pointing outwards. Support your neck with your hands. Keep your neck in a straight line with your spine. Flex your waist to raise the upper torso from the mat. Lower yourself until the back of your shoulders touches the mat.

4) Hip Bridges- To work the muscles of the lower back, hamstrings and gluteus : 10 repeats
Lie on your back. With your hands at a 90 degree angle to the floor, lift your body off the floor to form a straight line, a sort of a bridge, from the shoulders to the knee. The position should resemble a table … your hands and legs as the legs of the table and your upper body to your knees as the surface. Hold this position for two seconds. Squeeze your gluteus (butt muscles) and then lower yourself.
