Booty Blast - Seen on KUTV

If you follow my blog, you already know my philosophy on working out - intense & short! I typically workout 5 times a week for 20-30 minutes, max. During that time, I am FULL-ON - no breaks or resting... it's go go, push push!! This is the key to fat lose, toning and optimal fitness.

I combine high intensity exercises with low impact/ low intensity exercises, so the body can recover before the next big burst. This switch from plyometrics (jumping/hops) to isolation exercises creates the perfect interval training that can be done anywhere with any equipment!

*See bottom, for a crazy hyperlapse video of our workout!



Here's my killer booty workout which can be done in 20 minutes or less! This is the workout I put Brooke through, Live on KUTV! Give it a try and let me know what you think!

BOOTY BLAST

START:

Cardio blast 
15-30 seconds high knees
15-30 seconds hop-switch lunges
15-30 seconds front-back squat hops
(*for lower impact, do marching in place, stationary lunges and stationary squats)

Isolations 
*12-15 reps of each exercise
Single leg squat
Single leg pelvic lift
(*for higher intensity, add weights or a baby ;-) ha)

- Repeat workout 3-5 times depending on fitness level and time

*Refueling is critical! After an intense workout you need to replenish your fluids & feed your muscles so they can repair and build. The perfect drink is water! The perfect snack is a combination of carbs & protein. Here's my favorite healthy snack. It can work for pre or post workout!
