The Butt and Shoulder Fat Blaster Workout can be done anywhere, anytime. All you need is a little bit of room, a little bit of time and a lot of heart. As always, itâs important to start with a good warm up. This workout gets progressively more challenging, and will primarily focus on your legs, shoulders and abs.
Equipment Needed:
1 hand-held weight between 4 and 10 pounds.
Note: Cardio intervals can be done anywhere, not just in the cardio room of a gym. They're also not restricted to treadmills. The purpose is to get in cardiovascular activity at varying levels.
Warm Up: 5 Minutes
If youâre at the gym, jump on a piece of cardio equipment. If youâre at home, start with some easy lunges, walk up and down the stairs a few times, or better yetâŚa five-minute walk or jog outside. For this workout, it wouldnât be a bad idea to do a few windmills with your arms to loosen up your shoulders.
