Description

A solid program that features two aero/tone interval styles plus the newest Tabata technique. Motivated by contestants from the 2011 TV season, you’re sure to burn fat and have fun. Each instructor teaches a specific section. Anna Kournikova begins with kickbox intervals — fast-paced cardio alternated with short toning segments. Bob Harper is next. He keeps your body constantly in motion with a fluid blend of varied exercises (from classic aerobics and body sculpting to yoga and isometrics). Dolvett Quince ends the program with Tabata cardio training — 20 seconds of “give it all you’ve got,” followed by 10 seconds of rest (repeated eight times!). It’s tough, but do-able … and very effective. Requires 3 to 5 lb. dumbbells. ©2011WARM UP: Get your body ready for a high-intensity challenge by increasing your heart rate and prepping your muscles and joints.CIRCUIT 1: Anna takes you through a cardio-sculpt workout that will leave you dripping in sweat, yet feeling strong and powerful.
