This post is going to be short and sweet, yayy! I know I can get a little wordy at times haha! I filmed this follow along as my The Get Fit Guide HIIT this Wednesday! We’re going out of town to a wedding in Canada and I didn’t want to miss another Follow Along Friday like I did when I was in Greece. I know the world would be so disappointing right!? 😀 Orrr no one would notice but the point is, I got one done for any that wants it!
This is a quick but super sweaty, fat burning HIIT. It might look deceptively easy. I now I said that last week too but it’s true again! Maybe I just think everything looks easy for some reason. Either way, I was out of breath as ever by the end of this.
One thing that I want to mention is to make sure an warm up before this, and all of, your workouts! It’s super key so that you can get the most out of the workout and prevent yourself from getting injured. Going hard on a cold muscle isn’t ideal! Soo, take my word for it and warm up! It only has to be a few minutes and it makes a world of difference.
Now, on to the Fat Loss HIIT you’re all so excited for! Right?! 😀
16 Minute Fat Loss HIIT
45 seconds work : 15 seconds rest x 4 Rounds
Side to Side Quick Feet – Start on one side of the mat, side step both feet across the mat quickly to plant your outside leg on the other side of the mat. Move forward to the end of the mat then backwards to the other end. Back and forth.
Inchworm Hops – Start standing. Bend down and walk your hands out to a full plank. Hop you feet in to your chest then back out to full plank. Walk your upper body back towards your feet, sit back almost into a squat then hop up.
Shift Drops – Start at one end of your mat, shift sideways while doing -somewhat- high knees to the other side then drop into a squat. Pop back up, high knee shift back to the other end of the mat where you will squat again. Back and forth.
Skate Overs – Start at one end and on one side of your mat. Mini skate hop across the mat while creating forward motion. You want to get 5 skate hops in on the way to the other end of the mat. Once you’re at the other end, shuffle backwards to where you started and skate hop to the other end of the mat again.
As with all HIITs, you’ll get the most out of it if you give your best effort during each and every interval! It’s not about being faster than anyone else, it’s about giving a hard effort that pushes you to be your best! You’ve go this! Enjoy! 🙂
I hope you loved it! Let me know what you’d like to see next:)
Sweat, Smile, Repeat!
