Looking for a new workout routine? Try our new Circuit Workout with Jessica Bergenfield, who trains at the Beacon Hill Athletic Club in Boston, that will tone up your entire body. Get some major definition before Halloween and show off that sexy costume with body confidence.
The routine:
Complete the recommended number of reps for each exercise and move directly into the next exercise. After you complete all 4 moves, rest 1-3 minutes and repeat 3 more times. Do this exercise 3 times a week on non consecutive days in addition with a low sodium, low sugar diet. Limit carbs, and eliminate refined carbs. Lastly, increase your lean protein intake. On days you are not strength training, aim to get 30-60 minutes of cardio. Try not to do steady state cardio but spice things up with intervals, and alternating intensity between songs.
