Turn up the heat on your metabolism with a strength endurance workout in your house or apartment!

No equipment necessary to burn fat by getting your heart rate up with muscles begging to stop.

Advanced Heroes: Do 3 Rounds
Intermediate Heroes: Do 2 Rounds
Beginner Heroes: Do 1 Round

Workout:

30 Mountain Climbers
30 Reverse Lunge Knee Strike (30 reps on each leg)
30 Mountain Climbers
30 Close-Grip PushUps
30 Mountain Climbers
30 PliƩ Squat Jumps
30 Mountain Climbers
30 James Bond Russian Twist-Ups


How To:


Mountain Climbers - start in push-up position (hands shoulder-width apart) and bring left knee to left elbow and put it back to start and bring right knee to right elbow and take it back to start = 1 rep (go as fast as you can) (don't let your hips sag or get too close to the ceiling)








Reverse (Left) Lunge (Right) Knee Strike - start standing up (shoulders back, spine straight) lunge right leg behind you (keeping your shoulders back, chest up) (let the left lunging front knee stay in line with your toes) and as you come up toward start, lift your right knee up as high as you can = 1 rep (do the same thing on your other side)


Close-Grp PushUps - start in plank positions (your spine and neck in a straight line, hands below your shoulders and elbows close to your ribs at all times), lower your body toward the ground (keeping your elbows attached to your side) and push yourself back up (without your hips sagging and without your lower back sagging to the ground) = 1 rep






PliƩ Squat Jump - start with feet wider than shoulder-width apart and toes pointing to the side, squat down (with your knees following your toes - they should be in line with each other), and as you straighten up, jump off the ground landing softly on your feet and knees slightly bent = 1 rep








James Bond Russian Twist-Ups - start sitting up straight with knees bent at ninety-degree angle off the ground (so your calves are parallel with the ground), clasp your hands together to make a gun and hold it near your chest, then lean back pointing your gun to the left (your upper back is now parallel to the ground) and straighten your legs (so your the whole of your legs are parallel to the ground) (and your body is slightly straight from head to toe with your upper body and your legs slightly above the ground), then come back to start with your head pointing to the sky and your knees bent into your chest) = 1 rep (do the something on your other side)
