My workout routine!

A lot of you have been asking how to get a body like mine. The secrets are written below.
Hands-On-Head Running
No equipment
Place hands behind head, elbows out, and start jogging [shown]. Pay attention to whether you drift to the left or right or if one side of your body starts to feel more fatigued than the other, which could mean you have a muscle imbalance (these moves should help that). Run for 3 to 5 minutes.


Narrow-Stance Lunge

12 to 15  

Butt, Legs 

Equipment: No equipment.

 Stand with feet hip-width apart and staggered, back toes no more than a foot from front heel.With hands on hips or out to sides, bend knees and lower into a lunge. Rise up and repeat. Do 12 to 15 reps. Switch sides to complete set.

 


Low Walking

20 steps front and back 
Butt, Legs
No equipment

Stand with feet hip-width apart and extend arms in front of you, hands clasped. Squat low. Walk forward 20 steps, then backward 20 steps.
High Knees
10 on each leg
Butt, Legs
No equipment

Skip forward, lifting your knee as high as you can with each step you take [shown]. Swing arms in opposition to legs and do 20 skips (10 per leg). If you're doing this inside and don't have room to go very far, use a step or bench: Step up on it with one foot and lift the other knee high; hop on balancing leg if you can. Do 10 reps on one leg, then switch sides and repeat to complete set.

Plank on Ball

20 times
Core 
Balance Ball

Place hands on a stability ball, wrists or elbows aligned under shoulders, and extend legs back so your body is straight from head to heels [shown]. Hold for 30 seconds to 1 minute. If this is too easy, raise one leg or move the ball forward and back a few inches 20 times and then from side to side 20 times.

 Side Running
4 runs each side 
Hamstrings

Run to the side for 30 seconds: Step out to the left with left foot [shown], then bring your right foot in next to it as you step out again with left foot (don’t cross legs in front of each other). Alternate between taking smaller strides— maybe 18 inches wide—and wider strides (2 feet or more). Continue for 30 seconds, then switch directions and repeat. Do 4 runs to each side.

Hope this helped you guys. Have fun and enjoy!
