I’ve decided to put my workout routine here, so I have it written down somewhere so I can refer back to it.

I’m trying to lose weight and get a bit toned, so I have a lot more cardio than muscle building exercises in here.

20 steady cardio

Other exercises*

*Other exercises (I really only want a toned stomach and butt so those are the only areas I work on. And I don’t have weights D: so I can’t work on my arms well)

60 hip lifts in 3 reps

40 crunches in 2 reps

40 bicycles each side in 2 reps

20 push-ups

10 squats

10 sumo squats

My HIIT

High Intensity Interval Training is a workout that burns more fat than steady cardio. Take note that it shouldn’t be done two days in a row though because it involves doing a few intervals at your absolute maximum ability. Before you do HIIT, you should also have eaten something (maybe fruits and veggies or something else energizing) within 30 minutes of starting.

5 minute warm up

10 minute short interval HIIT (15 second all out sprint, 45 sec light jog)

10 minute steady cardio

10 minute long interval HIIT (1 minute fast paced jog, 1 minute light jog)

5 cool down
