20-Minute Fat-Burning Workout
Kick Those Extra Pounds to the Curb With This 20-Minute Fat-Blasting Workout
Let's cut the frills and the time-wasters. These are the best moves to blast fat in just 20 minutes. Taking on each of these exercises without resting will zest up your whole body and rev up your metabolism, so you can blast fat during and even after the workout ends. To get you the most effective workout, we reached out to Youfit Health Club's national director of fitness, Raphael Konforti. "This workout engages all the body's biggest muscles, like the legs and back, to kick up your heart rate and strengthen key muscles. Since the rest is minimal, your heart rate will stay elevated, which has been shown to keep your metabolism boosted even after the workout is over," Raphael told POPSUGAR.
Getting started: For this workout, complete each exercise for 12 to 15 reps. If the exercise uses one leg or arm at a time, like lunges, be sure to complete 12 to 15 reps on each leg or arm. Once the exercise is complete, move on to the next move right away without rest. Aim to complete three rounds, only resting at the end of each round as needed.
