Think about what you actually do with 10 free minutes of your time. I waste at least 10 minutes each morning combing through my closet with seemingly nothing to wear. And then I spend 10 minutes perfecting my cat eye and attempting to tame my beastly hair. Then there are the minutes I waste on non-appearance-related pursuits that are probably even less beneficial: Like the 10 minutes I spend flipping through new releases until my boyfriend and I agree on the perfect movie. Or the 10 (or more likely, 60) minutes I devote to browsing pictures of cats and corgis online.

Basically, we all do a whole lot of nothing in 10 minutes -- when we could be doing something productive for our health. Anyone could easily squeeze in a quick workout during the time you just spent looking up your ex-boyfriend-from-seven-year's-ago-current girlfriend on social media (pro tip: you'll look better than her if you do the quick workout instead -- not that that matters, of course).

These 10-minute circuits are great for those of you who get stressed just thinking about an hour at the gym. And they're also perfect for women who don't have a feasible workout time in their schedule. So take your pick from our favorite 10-minute workout routines.
