Split Squat Jump
Burns: 76 Calories in 10 minutes
How To: From a standing position, lower your body into a split squat: back leg- stand on the ball of your foot with heel raised. keep your core tight. keep your chest up. Quickly switch directions and jump with enough force to propel both feet off the floor (scissors kick). Repeat, alternating between each leg. Jump for 30 seconds. Rest for 30 seconds. Repeat 5 times.
Muscles Used: Gluteus Maximus, Quadriceps, Hamstrings, Calves & Spinal Erectors
NOTE:
This exercise is not intended for single workout use. The calories burned is used to show the difference between each exercise. When you look at the Squat for example, it burns so many more calories than the bicep curl. I want you ladies to see why I do pair certain exercises together.
This way, you ladies will be able to look at the exercise library (soon to come) and say, ” ok, I want to burn a lot of calories this week. I am going to put this exercise in this week (squat) and this one (lunge) and I’ll add a less calorie burning one (bicep curl) so I don’t get too tired….” You will be able to create your own workouts and have a strategic look at what you want to include in your circuits.

Hi Audrey,
Make sure you are sticking to Flavia’s nutritional recommendations. Don’t let yourself feel bad. Not eating is definitely not good for your metabolism and fat loss goal. Make sure you are eating plenty of vegetables, lean proteins and healthy fats. Keep your carbohydrate intake low since you are limited on your workout capabilities.
All the best!
