I know I post a lot of butt workouts, so here’s one for your upper body and core.

It will help you strengthen your core and tone your upper body without making you bulky. :)

This one is awesome because you can do it at home with no shoes on! Yay! And you don’t need any equipment (but it’s more comfortable if you have a yoga mat).

Also excuse my sweatiness! I filmed this after I went for a quick jog, and I am seriously the world’s most sweaty person.

HOW TO COMPLETE THE WORKOUT

  • Do the first 6 exercises for 30 seconds each.
  • If it’s a one sided exercise, do 30 seconds each side (if you can).
  • After you have completed one round, rest for as long as you need to.
  • Complete 3 rounds in total.
  • If you want a little extra challenge, you can do the finisher.
  • Do these 2 exercises as many times as you can in 2 minutes, without any rest!

Hope you enjoyed this workout! :)

I should also mention my Lean Legs Program 1 which is designed to help you get lean and toned legs. But it includes FULL body workouts that will help you achieve a more lean appearance all over.

So if you like this style of training that gives you a toned look without making you bulky, my program might be perfect for you :)

  1. Hi Rachael,
    Thanks for the workout. I was wondering if you had any workouts for the less fit/agile?! I need to work up to this level, so any ‘beginner’ type workouts would be great.
    Thanks
