20 minute workout-maximize the burn

http://www.womenshealthmag.com/fitness/fat-burning-workout-0

This is a workout that burns around 400 calories in about 20 minutes

I tried it today this today and it was a really good workout that you can do at home, it consists of 7 different exercises targeted to increase the rate at which calories are burned by 13% and according to a study from Colorado State University, you'll continue to burn calories at a higher rate for up to 16 hours after your workout.

    Its basically cardio but you do things like lunges and pushup but it gets your heart working quickly and it definately it tiring, so its cardio but also a very good workout for your leg muscles, mine are sore from doing it.

    I think it sounds awesome gonna try it tomorrow!

    I do usually 20 mins cardio kick boxing and then 20 mins hard core abs and floor work and get my sweat on lol....if I could do that in less time that would be great as I'm usually being interupted by a certain 7 year old who thinks its hillarious when momma exercises but better if he's on her back while she's doing it...sigh! lol

    thanks for the link!
    hugs,
