The Workout

The 20-minute full body workout consists of a series of exercises that target different muscle groups while keeping your heart rate elevated for maximum fat burning. Let’s break it down:

1. Jumping Jacks (1 minute): Start by performing classic jumping jacks to warm up your body and get your blood flowing. This exercise works your legs, core, and shoulders.

2. Squat Jumps (1 minute): Transition into squat jumps, where you squat down and explosively jump up, engaging your quads, hamstrings, and glutes. This exercise is excellent for toning your lower body and building explosive power.

3. Push-Ups (1 minute): Get down on the ground and perform push-ups to target your chest, triceps, and shoulders. Adjust the difficulty by modifying your hand placement or performing modified push-ups from your knees.

4. Plank (1 minute): Engage your core and hold a plank position for one minute. This exercise targets your abs, lower back, and shoulders, helping to strengthen your core muscles.

5. Mountain Climbers (1 minute): Get into a high plank position and bring your knees toward your chest in a jogging motion. This dynamic exercise works your entire body, focusing on your abs, arms, and legs.

6. Bicycle Crunches (1 minute): Lie on your back and perform bicycle crunches, alternating bringing your opposite elbow to your knee. This exercise targets your obliques and helps sculpt your abs.

7. Lunges (1 minute each leg): Step forward with one leg and lower your body into a lunge position, keeping your front knee at a 90-degree angle. This exercise works your quads, hamstrings, and glutes while improving your balance.

8. Russian Twists (1 minute): Sit on the ground with your knees bent and feet lifted off the floor. Twist your torso from side to side, touching the ground on each side. This exercise targets your obliques and helps define your waist.

9. Burpees (1 minute): Finish off the workout with a bang by performing burpees. Start in a standing position, drop into a squat, kick your feet back into a plank position, jump your feet back in, and explosively jump up. This exercise works your entire body and is a great calorie burner.
