Rock that Body Circuit by DailyHIIT

Rock that Body Circuit (realtime video!) Pin This! Posted by  Krissy Moore Go all out for the 30 seconds of aerobic work and focus on form and core stability for the 2nd anaerobic move. I love using heavy weights and after I designed this, I used 15 pound dumbbells and completed it 3x thru and was TOAST when I was done! REST after you complete one set and then repeat it again. Give it all you got! IF you are working with dumbbells, maybe have a couple different options in terms of weight, so you can use heavier and/or lighter depending on how you feel. I created the youtube video to show the movements in case you are unfamiliar with them. AFTER you complete 1-3 rounds, try the BURNOUT at the bottom! Rock That Body Boot Camp Circuit (30 second aerobic, 50 second anaerobic) Beginners 1-2 rounds, Intermediate 2-3 rounds, advanced 3+ Equipment: Pair of dumbbells (I used 10 and 15lbs) 30 sec Jog in place 50 sec Squat with Alternating kicks 30 sec High knees 50

Spending more than just 6 hours a day on your backside drives up blood pressure and places you at a greater risk for diabetes, obesity,  depression , and some types of cancer. People who already have chronic illnesses see an increase in their symptoms. And that's just for starters. Think you're out of danger if you go to the gym regularly? Think again: The usual guidelines for regular exercise simply aren't enough to counteract the dangers of all the sitting we do. And we do a lot of it: Americans average 9.5 hours on our collective butts per day. That's a lot of smoking. So
