To do a trigger workout, use an object or timer to remind yourself to workout in 1 to 5 minute bursts, instead of a full routine, to improve fitness.

"Instead of going to the gym for an hour and then coming home and sitting for the rest of the day, it's changing the approach to moving frequently throughout the day to add up to that hour," Kleinhammer told Insider.

While you can incorporate weights, trigger workouts don't require equipment, and can help everyone from fitness newbies to experienced athletes stay active and work towards building strength, mobility, or overall well-being.
