The South Beach Diet: Super Charged Workout

A solid workout with lots of intensity variations in both the aerobic and the toning segments. By alternating easier and harder intervals, you’ll maintain your motivation while you challenge your muscles in diverse ways. The aerobics feature easy-to-follow moves like marches, jumps and jogs (in three progressively-more-challenging segments that incorporate easier/harder intervals). The toning also builds in intensity — simpler at the beginning, tougher at the end. Many of the moves are Pilates-based with an emphasis on muscle elongation.

Requires 3 to 5 lb. dumbbells; one short section uses an optional step.

Inspired by the best-selling book series, The South Beach Diet Supercharged Workout will rev up your metabolism and burn fat fast!

Based on the latest exercise science, this total body workout combines core fitness and cardio intervals to keep your metabolism revved-up even at rest. Renowned cardiologist, Dr. Arthur Agastston, in collaboration with Dr. Joseph Signorile, a professor of exercise physiology at the University of Miami, and Kris Belding, a Miami-based Pilates teacher, has developed four different high-energy routines. With exercises such as ‘Beautiful Biceps’, ‘Fab Abs’ and ‘Swimming Frog’, users can improve their overall fitness and become healthier for life.
