Summer Lovin' Workout #1

Summer’s here and many of us put off that spring preparation period longer than we should have (is spring over already?!). Or if you’re like me, maybe you were ready, and then went on your first vaca of the season and enjoyed yourself a little too much. Whatever the reason, it’s mid-June, if you can believe it, and it’s time to kick it into gear!
This series is about your entire bod—not just your bum or your abs—because when you’re wearing tanks, shorts, and swimsuits, we need to focus on it all, right? Each workout, we’ll focus on large muscle groups, using complex movements to get the most bang for your buck. Push through a solid mix of cardio and strength throughout the workout, then finish up each one with an ab burnout!

*Pistol squats can be performed alone with your own bodyweight. If needed, hold onto suspension trainers for assistance.
**Program your incline trainer to 18% incline (or as high as your treadmill will go). This should be performed as a sprint—complete it as quickly as possible without holding on to the handles.
