Lean Muscle Fat Blast and Jump Rope Workout

Hi Everyone!

Today's workout has two parts (both videos are below). I started off with a 6 minute Jump Rope cardio workout/warm-up. If you want to maximize your benefits during a workout you should always warm up. 

Jumping Rope is also a great stand-alone workout. Check out: Health Benefits of Jumping Rope. You can always add jump roping before or after any workout. I don't talk about it enough, but you should always warm-up and cool-down to optimize the benefits of your workout. You will be able to complete the workout at a higher intensity, and increase the benefits of your metabolic system if you are warmed up. Stretching should be completed post-workout. 

Part 2 of the workout is a Lean Muscle, Fat Blaster. It's a great workout for building strength and definition, while simultaneously burning away fat. It's a HIIT workout, so push during each 50 second interval, and rest for 10 seconds between exercises. Remember to always listen to your body, and work at your own pace. If you are just starting out don't be discouraged if it's hard. Write down what you are able to do the first day, and make your goal to improve on that each time you do the workout. 

I was supposed to get a new workout posted yesterday, but I took the day off instead. It was an exhausting work week for me, plus I picked up extra work hours yesterday and I just didn't have the energy. I will be getting the new workout posted today. 

Enjoy!
