Burn a "Billion" Calories with This Move

The jump-squat is a great total body exercise.

Doing these burns oodles of calories, boosts your metabolism, and will definitely get you working in your target heart rate zone.

If you do this at the right intensity, you should almost be gasping for breath after doing 10 Jump Squats and you’ll certainly feel your heart pounding.

Another great thing about Jump Squats is they can be done anywhere. You can do them in the smallest of spaces, and they don't require any special equipment or clothing.

The Jump-Squat will:

• Strengthen and tone your calves and thighs

• Strengthen and shape your abs and back (this is great exercise for your core)

• Tone your butt

• Increase your heart rate

• Help burn more fat and create more of that magnificent calorie-burning muscle

How to do the Jump Squat

Start by standing tall with your feet somewhere between hip and shoulder width apart.

Then, initiate the squat by pushing your hips backwards like you are going to sit down.

Check in to make sure your knees stay facing straight ahead and they stay behind your toes.

Depending on your strength and ability, you can lower yourself just a few inches or until your thighs are parallel to the floor. Now that you are in the squat position, with those powerful legs of your’s, jump as high as you can.

Use your arms to make your jump even higher.

Propel yourself up into the air, then land back in a squat position.

The higher your jump and the deeper you squat, the more intense the exercise and the more fat and calories you will burn.

Repeat this exercise 10-20 times.

Remember to breathe!

Take Away Tip: Make exercise a part of your daily life. All you have to do is a little bit every day for a lifetime of fantastic results.
