If working out feels like a slog, we have some good news - '80s retro step aerobics is back. Who remembers the bright leotards and leg warmers from the first time around when Jane Fonda's workout video combined aerobic exercise with upbeat music, changing the fitness world dramatically? It's not only a great mood-lifter, but it fires up important muscle groups and even boosts your bone health.
'Step aerobics improves your cardiovascular fitness and strengthens the legs and your bum, as well as knee joints," says fitness coach Suzy Alvarez**. This simple workout will target those key areas and have you shedding pounds in no time.
Get ready to step to it!
1. THE V STEP
Stand tall facing the platform with feet shoulder-width apart. Begin by stepping up and down straight ahead, five times in total, to warm up. Next, step forward with your left foot, as wide as possible, and then step forward with your right foot, as wide as possible. Finally, step down with left foot and then bring your right foot down. Complete your reps then switch the leading foot and repeat.
2. SUMO SQUAT PULSE
