It’s a brand new year and you KNOW this is your time. Woe to the trouble zones that are the abs, legs & arms. You may as well put ‘em on notice, because you’re about to get your sexy back. Now let’s do this!
Gettin’ Sexy Back: FULL WORKOUT (3 exercises, 3 rounds)
- 20 reps: 180-degree jump squats
- 3 reps: “pushup / left side plank crunch / push up / right side plank crunch / push up” (this sequence = 1 rep)
- 16 reps: one-legged Tricep dips (8 reps left leg up / 8 reps right leg up)
*Then take it from the top and complete two more rounds. Be sure to warm-up and cool down properly.
MODIFICATIONS & PROPER FORM
- Less reps of the 180- jump squats, or no turn on the jump squat. Keep your body stable and your legs strong. Don’t be wobbly as you do the 180-degree turns.
- No push-ups on the side-planking sequence, or modified push-ups on your knees. Keep you hips up and in line with your body as you plank nnd crunch.
- Less reps of the Tricep dips and/or keep both feet on floor. Keep your back close to the chair/table and elbows pointing back (not wide). Push through the “heels” of your hands and do NOT cheat by using your legs to help you.
EQUIPMENT CHECKLIST
- Sturdy chair or table for Tricep dips. That’s it!
POST WORKOUT
- You’re working your legs, arms and abs in this workout. Be sure to refuel properly with a nutritious shake or protein powder drink to promote muscle recovery and muscle growth. BOOM!
It never occurred to me to try dips with just one foot. I need to do more to get away from my symmetrical tendencies! I like the pushup plank variation too. I get so stuck in what I do!!

Great workout! If you devote time and efforts to your body, your body will pay you back by being good looking, nicely shaped and healthy. You just have to support your love with some actions. For me physical activity works best. In order to keep myself toned I am taking Multipurpose High-Potency Super Nutritional Complex. This dietary supplement is manufactured by MGNutritionals and contains natural compounds. My body is grateful and is willing to exercise whenever I ask it to
