Best sport/exercise for toning up?

[staceyuk24]

Hi, well done on your weight loss. Boxing is fantastic as you work all your muscles, and just FYI Toned acutally means movement, so you really want to tighten up and make everything firm. I am a qualified boxing coach & I run women only boxing classes on a mon, wed and thurs eve at Manor ABC Boxing gym, i've lost loads of weight doing it and tightened up ;-) so if your interested please don't hesitate to email me on staceybarnes83@hotmail.co.uk

Work out a HIIT core routine and do it every other day, I do three sets, each set i do;

30 seconds of mountain climbers

20 leg crunches

20 leg raises

30 russian twist

20 crunches

 

after each set i have a minute break, all in all takes under 14 minutes

I find rowing pretty good for toning although maybe a little repetitive.
