HIIT

Pump It Up HIIT is uses every muscle in your body to give you a highly effective and quick workout. Using the LUCC method, you’ll get a total body fit sesh and be done in under 30 minutes.

This one requires some weights to give you that extra pump and boost in building a lean body. Not only will you be working your endurance, you’ll also be building muscles.

Pump It Up HIIT

Why each movement?

Goblet squat: goblet squats work your legs and your core amazingly. It doesn’t take many reps to really start feeling it. Remember to squeeze your butt at the stop and keep your weight on your heels. If you’re unfamiliar with a goblet squat, here’s a video. They can be done with kettlebells or a dumbbell. If you don’t have either of those, you can still do the movement, just without weights.

Push-up position row: push-up position rows require you to really use your core to keep the push-up position and to stop you from falling over. Add a row to it, and we’re working multiple parts of the body at once. If you’re unfamiliar with the movement, here’s a video. Using 10 lbs weights is about where you want to be. If you don’t have dumbbells, do a bent over row. Grab a suitcase or gym bag and fill it up with stuff to add weight. Here’s a video. You just need to watch from 2:04 to 2:51.

Mountain climbers: mountain climbers work your core (noticing a trend), your shoulders by holding yourself up, and most definitely get your heart rate up!

Crab kick: crab kicks are seriously amazing. I just learned about these recently. But they are a killer total body move, and, you guessed it, they require the use of your core muscles. Here’s a video. Give it a go, or add it to the end of any workout.
