It can be difficult to find a strength-based workout that will leave you feeling accomplished and exhausted without all the wear and tear on your joints. This kickass workout from celebrity trainer Jeanette Jenkins won't have you reaching for Tylenol and icing your joints for days.

- Side lunge to front kick
- Push-up to a squat, curl, and press
- Plié squat, upright row, and delt raise
- Goblet squat
- Lunge with bicep curl
- Back row to back fly with tap
- Chest fly with ab double leg lower
Some other great low-impact options to work into your current routine are cycling, using the elliptical machine, and swimming.
