Home Workout #45: Kitty Litter HiiT

Kitty Litter HiiT!

Many of you have asked me to create a workout using common household items.

I just happened to have two 16 pound jugs of kitty litter in my closet!

This workout killed me! It's crazy intense!

Equipment Required:

Two 16 pound kitty litter jugs. If it's not in your budget to buy 2 kettlebells, then this is a very inexpensive alternative.

You don't have to use kitty litter jugs. You can use milk jugs, dumbbells, medicine balls, or kettlebells.

Always a Must!

Drink your BCAAs!

Stay hydrated with water.

Video Workout

Keep this circuit mega-INTENSE; otherwise, you are not going to benefit from metabolism-boosting effects of HIIT. Maximize fat-burning by doing this workout fasted as soon as you wake up …  and stay fasted for at least 2 hours after the workout (you can drink your BCAAs). Increase the intensity by lifting the heaviest weights you safely can. Remember, you want to lift weights because muscle burns calories! The more muscle you have, the more calories you will burn.

This circuit consists of 6 exercises. Set your timers for 40 seconds of work and 10 seconds of rest. If you are new to training, try doing it once (5 minutes) or twice (10 minutes). If you are more advanced, do it 4 times for a total of 20 minutes.
