Walk Off 2 Sizes in 6 Weeks!
- Three times a week, do the 60-minute Walking Boot Camp Workout alone or with some friends.
- Two times a week, do a steady-paced brisk walk (about 3.5 to 4 mph) for one hour.
What you'll need: Supportive walking shoes, a sports watch and a path or track with a grassy area to perform the exercises. - For faster results: Follow a healthy diet (about 1,600 calories a day) with plenty of whole grains, fruits, vegetables, lean protein and low-fat dairy.
- Warm-Up for five minutes.
- Cardio: Walk & Burn. You'll alternate short intervals of walking drills that stretch and tone your lower-body muscles with longer bouts of brisk strolling.
- Strength: Walk & Sculpt. You'll complete two circuits of high-energy strength exercises for the recommended number of repetitions to firm up all over.
- Brisk Walk for 10 minutes.
- Cool-Down for four minutes.
If anyone does this let me know how it works.
