40 Minute Workout 6 – Abs And Inner Thighs Exercises.

Zuzana - BodyRock.Tv — Fri, 09 Jan 2009 23:36:44 +0000

Remember to move through each combo quickly and don’t break in between each exercise combo for longer than it takes you to have a quick drink of water. The higher the level of intensity you bring to this workout, the greater the long term fat burning benefits will be. If you challenge yourself and keep focused, not only will you have a great workout in a relatively short amount of time, but you will also help to boost your metabolism to a higher burn rate.

The truth is that strength training workouts like this one are absolutely going to have a positive impact on your fitness level and overall goals. You can feel confident that the time you spend doing these basic exercises will reshape your body and make you stronger. Time and determination are the main investment. There is no need to spend a lot of money to exercise – the fitness tools I use are very basic and cheap. I don’t take supplements or magic pills or powders. That stuff is largely garbage for your body and a huge waste of money. All that it takes is just to get up and start moving.

Lean muscle is the engine that burns away fat – and adding lean muscle across your whole frame will optimize your body’s ability to burn fat 24 hours a day. That means you will be burning at a heightened rate while you are watching TV, while you are surfing the net, even while you sleep. If you REALLY want to transform the way your body looks then nothing beats weight training exercises , and this workout is a great first step.

Start with 20 backward lunges alternating the legs, then go down on your mat or step and do 20 reps of skull crushers. The second set starts again with 20 backward lunges but continues with 20 close grip presses. You will repeat the whole thing one more time, before you move on to part 5 of this workout. There are no breaks in between the exercises – you have to keep moving.

40 Minute Workout Part 3 – Legs and Shoulder Exercises

Zuzana - BodyRock.Tv — Tue, 30 Dec 2008 01:56:41 +0000

This exercise video focuses on the muscles in your legs and shoulders. Shoulders are often overlooked – especially by women, but they are vital for day to day activities that require upper body strength, and they also give the frame of the body a nice shape.

When you move through the different exercise combos in this workout, remember to keep it moving. You can have a great fat burning home workout in 40 minutes, but you have to keep up the pace and the intensity to get maximum benefits.

The 40 Minute Workout Part 2 – Squats, Deadlifts and Rows

Zuzana - BodyRock.Tv — Wed, 17 Dec 2008 03:54:52 +0000

There are 4 exercises in this part. Do 20 regular squats (try to get as much down with your butt as possible), 20 mini squats, 20 deadlifts and 20 bent over rows.

Go through this exercise combo 2 times WITHOUT taking a break. Keep it moving.

If you don’t have a bar, use dumbells. Keep hydrated – make sure you drink water after you finish this workout combo. If you are beginner and holding weights offers to much of a challenge then go hands free and just use your own body weight for resistance.

The 40 Minute Workout Part1 – Half Squats And Chest Presses

Zuzana - BodyRock.Tv — Sat, 13 Dec 2008 00:00:27 +0000

This is part 1 of a new 40 minute home workout series. I have stopped going to the gym now completely. First of all it’s expensive, and secondly it eats up a lot of time. It’s not just the time in the gym – it’s getting there and back and the time in the change room etc. I’m also just completely bored with the gym. I don’t feel inspied there at all right now. The good news is that you don’t have to go to the gym to get a really good workout.

The first set is made of 40 half way down squats and 40 reps of chest presses. The second set is again 40 half way down squats but this time at much slower pace, and the same amount of chest presses done in slow pace as well. In the last set I am doing 40 mini squats – starting with my thighs parallel to the floor and moving only half way up, and 40 half way up chest presses.

There are a few important points to remember if you want to get the best results from this workout. First, it’s only 40 minutes, so you have to keep moving. The breaks come at the end of each combo – and then just give yourself enough time to wipe off the sweat and get a drink of water. Keep focused on what you are doing. If you are working your legs, visualize your muscles working and see the changes you want to achieve happening in your mind’s eye. There have been all kinds of studies about the power of creative visualization. Remember that your thoughts have power – don’t let them wander. Keep your mind clear, and your attention on your body.

My Best,
