    This was emailed out from my old trainer. I did it as my Sunday workout. If you go to youtube you generally can find a demonstration for each of these. If you can't do any exercise, search in youtube for a MODIFIED.__________ example Modified jumping jack.

    Full Body Fat Blast Home Workout
    -Use dumbbells for the squats and lunges if you have dumbbells.
    -Warmup first (you must do this) by going through the first circuit one time, for half the reps prescribed.

    Jump Squats 8-10
    Squats x 15-20
    Dynamic Side Plank 10-15 per side
    Lunges 10-15 each side
    *Rest :45 and repeat 1-2 more times

    Reverse Lunges 10-15 per side
    Burpees 8-12
    Bird dogs 8-10 per side
    *Rest :45 and repeat 1-2 more times

    Total Body Extensions :30
    High Knees :30
    Jumping jacks :30-:60
    *rest :30 and repeat 2 more times.

    Stretch tight muscle groups. (you must do this!)

    Thanks :smile:

    Tabata workout. Its 20sec of work followed by 10sec of rest for 8 rounds(ends up being 4 min). The must common routine is pull-ups, push-ups, sit-ups, squats. So you would do 20/10 all 8rds of pull-ups first, then push-ups, & so on. You only rest the 10sec between movements. You can do this for single movements ( just squats, try active rest at the bottom), combine 2 together (squats/push-ups do 20 sec of squats rest 10 sec do 20 sec of push-ups so on till u did 8 rounds of both (8 min total)). try keeping your rep numbers they same from start to finish. You can play around with it in many ways.

    I love Tabata timed workouts. I have a Tabata counter app on my iPhone and use it all the time.

  • 15 pull ups or lat pulls
    15 push ups
    15 squats
    1 minute
    4 or 5 rounds of 5 x each = 20-30 minute workout

    I copied the following workout from a fellow MFP'er:

    100 Workout

    100 jumping jacks
    90 crunches
    80 squats
    70 lying leg raises
    60 jumping jacks
    50 crunches
    40 squats
    30 laying leg raises with weights on stomach
    20 jumping jacks
    10 minute run (the person who I got this from did a 30 min run instead)

    You could probably include weights for some of the exercises. Good luck!

    I go to bootcamp 3 times a week, so I only do this one day/week.
  • I'm trying to keep my weight loss as simple as possible; 'been doing C25K and holding off on a gym membership and dvds until i absolutely can't stand not to have them.

    ...this is right on time!

    thanks so much!
