This video demonstrates a full body segment that hits your thighs, glutes, waist, arms, shoulders and cardio, all at once! Watch it through first to get the gist; then I recommend doing each segment, or the same one twice, 8 reps. In other words, one lunge left, (then center) then to the right, is one repetition. Go slow, and sit back on those heels keeping eyes forward and your back aligned as I demonstrate on video.
Enjoy!

Okay, I need to chime in on this product being parodied on the likes of SNL and other shows. If you workout, don’t expect much. Mostly, it’s just embarrassing to use, so the comedians are having their fun with it. See me below?
I’m holding a homemade “shakeweight” – hahahaha. Close enough; save your hard earned money and pass on this one people.

Sincerely,
Margo
Hi all,
I have no idea where I got the name for these (maybe elementary school?). There are other versions and names, I just like “Burpees”. This move has 6 steps, and exercises (challenges) your Heart, Legs, Abs, Arms, Shoulders, Chest, Glutes, and Skeleton from impact! Its about 10 seconds to do ONE all the way through. I recommend my clients (depending on fitness) aim for 6 to 8 in a row; take small break, then repeat!
As always, watch it through once first, then practice along with me as I call out the timing for each move.
Take care,
Margo
