AdvertExercises she attributes to her 16 kg weight loss
1. Jumping Jacks (50x)Jumping jacks are a classic cardio exercise that doesn’t require any equipment. This activity helps to get the heart rate up and can help to burn calories. Anita suggests doing 50 reps.
The exercise also engages several muscle groups including the calves, glutes, quadriceps and deltoids.
2. High-Knee Running in Place (40 reps)High knees are a quick bodyweight move that combines cardiovascular work with work for the lower body. Anita’s routine includes 40 reps, which can help boost heart rate while working the core and legs.
It is often added to high-intensity workouts because it can keep the body going and going.
3. Butt Kicks (50x)Butt kicks are another cardio movement that involve bringing the heels to the glutes in a running motion.
Anita suggests 50 reps: The exercise helps to raise the heart rate and can provide an effective aerobic workout, which may help to burn calories as part of a wider fitness routine.
4. Under-Leg Clap (20 times)The under-leg clap is about coordination, balance and core engagement.
A set of 20 reps works the lower abdominal muscles and hip flexors, but it requires stability and control. It helps maintain the workout intensity at the same time.
5. Jump Squats (12 reps)Jump Squats Jump squats combine a traditional squat with a powerful jump.
Anita has 12 reps in her routine. The exercise can help build lean muscle, increase lower body strength, and boost cardiovascular fitness. It is also regularly used in high intensity workouts as it increases total energy expenditure.
6. Sprinting In Place (50 reps)Sprint running in place is a way to mimic the intensity of a short sprint without the need for equipment or outdoor space.
Anita’s regimen involves 50 reps at high intensity, which can be a tough cardio workout and can help increase calorie burn.
The fitness influencer recommends doing the whole circuit three times as part of a structured workout routine to support weight loss and overall fitness goals.
