Maybe you're tired of your current workout, or you got a late start on that New Years Resolution that everybody else has been bragging about. Either way, we have the perfect muscle toning, fat blasting workout for you. Combine cardio with a variety of strength training exercises, and you have got yourself ready to feel better from the inside out, at least eventually...after the burning sensation subsides that is.

This workout is designed for men and women who are already in decent shape. If you've never ran a mile or picked up a weight, we'd suggest you ease into it by doing walk-run combos. Or, you can get on board with the rest of our gang and gt your copy of The Well Balanced Body today.

​If you’ve never ran before (more than a mile), then we suggest that you cut the mileage in half for the first week. After that, if the mileage is too much for you, then run/walk. A good ratio is 2:1. Run 20 minutes and walk 10 minutes. But hey, if you find yourself walking more than running, just remember that the only person who knows what you are up to is you.
 
Also, if you’ve never lifted weights before, please watch a few videos over at bodybuilding.com to understand proper form. Form is the difference between sore muscles and strained muscles. If you have little muscle mass, start with a low weight (5 pounds) and add in and extra 3-5 pounds each week. If you feel strained, go back down to the lower weight.
 
For all users, please consult with a doctor before beginning a new training regimen to make sure you can tolerate it. This workout can hurt.
