HILL SPRINTS

Why it’s her fave: “Women carry more of their body fat in their legs and glutes. Hill sprints are a great way to burn more calories in less time while targeting stubborn lower-body areas. You’ll achieve greater muscle separation for a tighter, more sculpted lower body.”

Sue Ling’s Workout

Find a hill that’s about 10% to 15% incline (moderately steep). Warm-up for a few minutes on a flat surface. Then do the following intervals: Sprint as you run uphill for about 800 meters for 20 to 30 seconds. Rest for 30 to 60 seconds, then lightly jog back downhill to actively recover. Start out with five to six all-out hill sprints per session. Aim to up the number of sprints you perform by one to two per session each week, until you can do eight to 10. Then find a steeper hill or increase the distance every couple of weeks.
