CHALLENGE:
While leaping side-to-side, swing your arms forward and back as you move.

5. Hamstring Curl

Sleek, sculpted, sexy legs can be yours as you get heart-healthy, too.

  Stand with your feet wider than shoulder-width apart and place your hands on your hips.

  Step side-to-side about two to three feet as you alternate lifting one leg off the floor behind you and bringing your heel to your rear each time. Time: 30 seconds.

 
BACK ROWS:
Continue hamstring curls with your legs and add an arm variation where you’re pulling your elbows down and back behind you. Time: 30 seconds.

6. Burpee (Squat Thrust)

This is a tough one, but it works it all.
And it blasts calories fast to shrink those fat cells.

  Stand with your feet more than hip-width apart and squat down, touching the floor with your hands.

  Jump your body back with knees bent and abs strong.

  Jump your feet back toward your hands to the first position.

  Stand up and extend your arms toward the ceiling. Time: 1 minute.

 
CHALLENGE:
When you jump your legs out behind you, straighten your legs as in the top part of a push-up/plank. Then add another challenge at the top: Jump up.
