Hello Lovelies!!

Today’s workout is targeting at giving your metabolism a BOOST.

Get up and MOVE! Try waking up 20 minutes early to get this workout done. No EXCUSES.

First and foremost you want to get some cardio in to get your metabolism going. An increased metabolism helps you burn calories and fat. If you have stairs in your home, do 5 jumping jacks at the bottom of the stairs then take off running up the stairs. Once at the top do 5 more jumping jacks and run back down. One time up and down the stairs is one complete set. Start out with 5 sets of these. Take it slow if you have to. I call these “Stair-jacks”. Rest for 1 minute after the 5th set.

If you don’t have any stairs, do 3 sets of 25 Jumping Jacks. Be sure to rest for 30 seconds in between each set.

Next, go to the living room, garage or bedroom and do lunges in place. Try doing these with 5lb dumbbells. If you don’t have any dumbbells just do them without holding anything or just hold a can good or a bottle of water in each hand. Make sure to keep your knees above your toes. Alternate your lunges for 12 counts which will equal one complete set. Do 3 sets of these. Rest for 15 seconds between each set of lunges.

Then, go back and do 5 sets of Stair-Jacks or 3 sets of 25 Jumping Jacks.

Finally, Stretch for about 3 to 5 minutes. Concentrate on stretching your calves, hamstrings, quadriceps and shoulders.

There you have it!

Take this one on the go and let me know if you give it a try.
