Planks are a great workout to tone just about all the muscles in your body. From head to toe, your muscles will tighten up midst this workout. Lie on the
-
floor and prop yourself up by planting your elbows and forearms on the ground. Hold tight and make sure that the back of your body creates a straight line, no
-
arching or hunching your back.
Hold for 60 seconds then rest. Repeat for a few reps.

This reverse burpee is a little easier than the original burpee but is still a total body blaster. Start out by standing straight up then bend down to roll onto your
-
back where your feet end up in the air and knees are tucked towards your head. Roll back up, engaging those abs, and pop back up completing a straight jump
-
at the top.
Repeat for 25 reps, two sets.

The classic burpee is always a love, hate relationship. It's a jump, a pushup, and lifting your entire body up and down, multiple times. Start by standing straight up then
-
crouch down to your hands and pop your feet out into a plank position. Complete a pushup then jump your feet back in and jump straight up to land in
-
your starting position. That is one rep.
Complete 15 reps, three sets.

Jump squats will target that booty and give you that cardio workout all-in-one. Stand with your feet planted about hip's width apart. Squat down, as if you are going to

Similar to burpees and the plank, this move will work and stretch your body while burning those abs. Start by standing straight up with your feet together. Reach down to place

-
back to your foot and stand back up. Repeat this move, alternating your feet.
Do 20 reps, 3 sets.

This move will be great for your lower half. Start by standing with your feet about shoulder's width apart. Take your right foot and swing it behind to lunge into

it on the opposite end. Push through the ball of your foot to go back to your starting position.

Plank Jacks are another core blasting and cardio workout that you'll feel in no time. Start out in a pushup position with your feet together. Jump both of your feet
-
out wide, like a jumping jack, then jump them back together. This completes one rep. Repeat multiple times to create a steady motion of plank jacks.
Do 25 reps, three sets.

Mountain climbers will get your heart beating and your muscles moving. Start out in a pushup position with your hands planted on the floor and balls of your feet pressing

Every other knee is one rep.
