Speedy tips to tone up fast!
Try these super fast toners to target prob areas and majorly tone up. Trainer Nicole Clancy dishes exactly what to do to get your ultimate shape.
Perform these moves every other day. Remember: go slow to eliminate momentum during the moves and see super charged results.
Speedy move for your legs: Superman Squat
Stand on your right leg and bend forward slightly from your hips. Reach your arms forward while extending your left leg behind you. Bend your right leg lowering your body down about 6 inches. Straighten your right leg and return to your starting position to complete one rep. Perform 12 times to complete one set. Repeat the movement standing on your left leg, and holding your right leg straight out behind you.
Speedy move to tone your arms: Plank Push-backs
Start in a plank position. Keeping your legs straight, pull your hips up and back into a downward-facing dog position (you’ll be on all fours with your arms straight and your hips up in the air). Lower your hips and return to your plank position to complete one rep. Perform 12 times.
Speedy move to tighten those thighs: Side Squat
Start with your feet together. Take a step about 12 inches to your right side, arms extended shoulder-level, straight out in front of you. Bend your knees and hips and sit back into a squat. Push off with your right foot and return to the center. Repeat the same movement of stepping to your left side about 12 inches. Perform 12 repetitions alternating to each side.
Speedy move for awesome abs: Squat and Twist
Stand with your feet hip-width apart and your arms straight overhead. Bend your knees and hips; sit back lowering your hips about six inches toward the floor while keeping your arms straight overhead. Upon standing up, lift your right knee. Bend your left elbow and touch your left elbow to your right knee to complete one rep. Repeat squat, lift your left knee and touch your right elbow to your left knee. Perform 12 total squats.
