Burpees, pushups, and planks—we all have that one exercise that we absolutely hate doing. But just because they’re challenging doesn’t mean you should give up on trying. Check out these great alternatives to exercises you hate doing.
Running
Running is a great and fun cardio exercise that burns a lot of calories and it has become increasingly popular in recent years. However, there are plenty of people who don’t enjoy running. If you’re one of them, you can try other fun activities such as kickboxing, swimming, or biking.
Lunges
Lunges can be uncomfortable or challenging for some people who are working on improving their balance. If that’s the case, you can switch from lunges to other exercises that target the glutes and hamstrings such as step-ups or wall sits.
Burpees
Burpees are so challenging and hard to do, and that’s why people hate them. If you’re looking for some alternatives to burpees, try doing modified burpees that are a bit easier, or maybe try skaters and squat thrusts.
Push-Ups
Push-ups are also hard for some people, but they’re very beneficial because they work different muscle groups. For beginners who still can’t do push-ups, bear crawls, chest flys, and planks are all great alternatives.
