I've been exercising every morning lately (pushups and situps), and am looking for ways to optimize my morning routine without it taking too much time.
So, where can I find good tips on a morning ten-minute exercise routine, that doesn't require any special equipment? Preferably from a credible source.
I'm not trying to lose weight (I'm pretty skinny as is), just to be healthy.
(I found some tips here, but it's a bit more than what I want to do right now, and requires a Gym)
I'll put in a good word for The Five Tibetan Rites, a cross between yoga and calesthenics.
I've found it helps with strength and endurance, and can be done at home with a yoga mat as the only equipment.
If you want more detail than the standard online resources, there's The 10-Minute Rejuvenation Plan: T5T: The Revolutionary Exercise Program That Restores Your Body and Mind -- the author has taught some 700 people, and has a lot of good advice about dealing with common problems.
This is not a credible source. Yoga is less efficient in terms of the benefits you get out of it per time spent when compared to other activities (like high-intensity activities).
The Tibetans are fairly high intensity, at least by my non-athletic standards. Doing 21 reps of sitting to table position is some degree of work.
