Lower Body Tone Up Circuit

This routine is something I tried on one of my clients and they loved it! By the second set of the traveling jumping squats they said their legs were jello like? =) This routine involves some interval cardio spouts in between the strengthening moves to jump start fat loss and build lean muscle. However if you feel you need more cardio than what is involved then then add in a 20-30 min cardio routine before or after this strenth circuit. Here's the routine..enjoy.
-----------------------------
3 Rounds of ( after your first day of this..go back to it on a different day and beat your first time)

***50 meters of walking lunges (weighted or non-weighted..your prefrence)
***100 meters of forward traveling jumping squats. (low sqaut position with weight in the heels, jump forward and land in squat, keep repeating)
***200 meter run ( on the treadmill this is 24.5 on the treadmill for distance.)

*NOTE- This is cross fit based..you have to go hard at this circuit and as if you are going againast time in order to get the full benifit.
