Women are very busy people. They are usually the first in the family to get out of bed in the morning and the last to lie down at night. During the day, women are busy going to work, overseeing family obligations and social commitments and caring for the children and their partner.
There?s very little down time for anything else.
Tha why this 20 minute full body circuit is simple, easy and effective for every busy woman.
Why This Program Works
Every exercise in the 20-minute program activates the whole body to maximize your potential for getting into shape.
The workout will help tone up the thighs, butt, arms and abdominals.
The circuit is effective because it uses compound exercises – movements that require more than one joint and more than one muscle group, essential for weight loss and staying fit and healthy.
?Le Do It!
Do the circuit three times a week for 4-6 weeks for best results. If you are new to exercise please consult your medical practitioner before starting any physical activity.
Warm Up ? Give yourself 10 minutes to thoroughly warm up. Walk uphills, jog, cycle or use a cardio machine.
Your Program
Do all exercises once then rest for 1 minute before repeating 1-2 more times.
