    This workout has everything you need to get fit at home without a single piece of equipment, combining HIIT cardio with some of the best tried-and-true bodyweight exercises for toning up quickly.



    Whether you're looking to burn fat, build lean muscle, tone total body, increase flexibility, build endurance, improve coordination, or develop speed - you name it - it's tackled in this workout video. Smart exercises like this will change your body quickly, and they won't cost you a penny.

    Workout Breakdown:

    • Warm Up Cardio - light exercises to get your muscles warmed up
    • HIIT Workout - 20 On, 10 Off X 3 - intervals meant to burn off body fat and push your limits
    • Total Body Toning Workout - in the interest of keeping this routine bodyweight only, this excercise weaves together groups of three that target these areas; butt and thighs, abs and obliques, and upper body
    • Cool Down & Stretch
    • No equipment necessary, but you can add dumbbells to bump up the challenge and caloric expenditure

    No equipment necessary, but if you have free weights, grab them in order to make this workout even more effective. This section is fast-paced - we won't waste any of your time just standing around.

    Squats
    Toe Touch Crunches
    Push Ups

    Reverse Lunges
    Scissored Crunch
    Tricep Dips

    Calf Raises
    Russian Twists

    Cool Down & Stretch

    Heads up! Some of these exercises are different and you might feel goofy doing them...but, they're also wildly effective and even a little fun (if we're using the word "fun" liberally), so you're going to want to try this routine.

    After all, fitness is a lifelong project, so it's nice to break away from routine staples like jumping jacks and push ups every now and again to shake things up a bit. Try it and you're going to find that your brain appreciates new challenges, and that because of the unfamiliar movement patterns, your muscles will be talking to you in new ways, too. Just be glad that you're likely doing this at home in your living room, and your not on the world wide web doing these weird exercises in the name of keeping things interesting and challenging!
