Day 3: Cardio Core
Here comes Cardio Core! I love HIIT (high intensity interval training) programs and if you do too, you'll love today! This is a GREAT fat burner (yes please!).
This workout is tough, but it’s only 40 minutes, so by time you can't do another rep, it's over! We do one cardio interval, one HIIT interval, then one core move, then repeat that twice before we add the core move. Then we move on to the next segment in similar fashion until we finish all the cardio and do a round of core work. This is about 8 minutes long and summarizes all the core moves we previously did. For a bonus, I try to do the core section TWICE. If it's a challenge just to finish, do that. If you feel like you have more left, try another round, or add 3 lbs weights to the cardio part. Don't do heavy weights because you're moving around so fast you'll likely injure yourself. Your only equipment today is Beachbody strength slides.
BEACHBODY PERFORMANCE TIP: If you take Energize, have you noticed a tingling feeling shortly after you drink it? It can be a normal reaction to Beta Alanine, an amino acid ingredient in Energize. Some people tingle, some don’t. And it often goes away once you start exercising, and with continued, regular use.
