1. Burpees

Burpess are one of the most effective exercises to get the afterburn effect because they are high intensity and give you a great total body workout. Try to perform 3 sets of 10 with marching in place for 1 minute in between. This will help you boost your metabolism and get in your best shape! As a certified trainer for well over a decade this is my “go to” exercise for my clients and in my own personal fitness workouts, and for good reason!

2. Jump Squats

Jump squats are a great explosive exercise that targets your legs, butt and core. Just make sure to squat down low and explode up for maximum afterburn effects!

3. Jump Lunges

Jump lunges are amazing for reshaping your body. To start out, begin with a stretch and 2 sets of 18 regular lunges, then bump it up to the next level and add the jump to get the afterburn effect. Perform 2 sets of 18 jump lunges to make the most out of your workout and achieve amazing fitness results!

4. Kettle Bell Swing

You can perform the kettle bell swing with your kettlebell, free weights or even a medicine ball. Just make sure you focus on form with the swing and tighten your core. Perform 3 sets of 20 with 15 jumping jacks in between each set for the best results!

Yoga has the power to connect your mind, body, and spirit, creating balance and harmony. To fully immerse yourself in the practice, you'll need a high-quality accessory; the best yoga mats suitable for your specific needs can enhance your yoga journey. Discover options for every yogi, from beginners to professionals.

5. Interval Running

Try a running program of 20 second running super-fast and 20 seconds for active recovery, beginning with 8-10 sets, working your way up to 20 sets after a few weeks. This is a great way to get the afterburn effect and become faster, fitter and leaner!
