Body Burn is a high-intensity interval training (HIIT) workout in which you perform intense
exercises for 60 seconds before resting for 30 seconds to recover and prepare for the next
challenging interval. These concentrated bursts of activity help you burn fat at an amazing rate.
There are no weights to think about or repetitions to count, as it follows the AMRAP system,
where you aim to perform As Many Reps As Possible within the required time slot.
We recommend doing the Body Burn workout no more than four times per week and avoiding
consecutive days. Follow with a recovery day or one of the other workouts after completing this one.
Warm up before starting with some mobility and pulse raising activity.

If time remains, start from beginning of list
Body Blast increases power, speed and recovery by challenging you to complete as many of the
exercises as you can in 10-, 20- and 30-minute sessions. The goal is to complete 20 repetitions of each
exercise. However, if you feel that your technique is suffering due to fatigue, just move on to the
next exercise on the list. Try to complete the list in the time that you have given yourself, but don’t
stop there. If you have done one entire round, simply go back to the top of the list and start again.
Body Blast can be completed every day of the week or performed as an energizing workout between
Body Burn and Body Strong sessions.
Warm up before starting with some mobility and pulse raising activity.
