Full-Body Fat Blast and Muscle-Building Circuit

For a full-body workout, use lighter weights and perform higher reps, going from each exercise to the next with as little rest as possible. Keep moving as fast-paced as possible to keep your heart rate in the higher intensity fat burning zone (140-170 beats per minute for most of us). This routine will not only burn fat, but it will also build more muscle, which will also lead to more fat burning. The more muscle you have, the higher your metabolic rate will be, which is what makes your body a fat-burning “furnace!”

Rest for one minute after the complete circuit, and then repeat it two to three more times. Use a weight that challenges you enough to make you struggle during the last four to five reps on each exercise!
