Squeeze In 15 Minutes Of Yoga

Because it's only 15 minutes - the amount of time you can waste online shopping in the blink of an eye. "That's all you need to get your heart rate up and do some strengthening, invigorating, and detoxifying moves," says Tricia Donegan, Lady Gaga's trainer and the founder of Bikram Yoga Lower East Side in NYC. "You will feel charged, light, and strong."

"It's in the twists -you need to use your core while you ring out; plus, you want to put some pressure on organs like your transverse colon, and by holding the postures like that you get a tourniquet effect where when released, fresh blood with nutrients and oxygen is rushed to the muscles to restore them." Watch this video to see Tricia do the sequence, so you can follow along at home, PJs and all.
