Fitness Health Track’s Free 5-Day Workout Challenge: Strong and Lean, Day 2 Fitness Health Track

Workout Description

Day 2: Cardio and Upper Body Strength Workout

While we’re letting our lower body muscles recoup from the previous workout, we’re going to do cardio intervals, mixed in with strength supersets for the arms, shoulders, and upper back.

People are constantly asking how to lose fat from certain parts of the body – most often, from the midsection, thighs, or arms. The truth is that the best way to reduce fat from any of these places is with routines like the ones you
see in this 5 Day Challenge (or our workout programs). You cannot spot reduce fat. However, a smart combination of total body strength training, HIIT and cardio (again, like you see
in this challenge and our programs), are incredibly effective for lowering body fat. They’re also ideal for improving the health and overall function of the body, as they focus on not only fat loss, but also endurance, building lean
muscle and strength, flexibility, agility, balance, etc, etc.

Choose your difficulty level today, based on how you feel today. You can stick with the easier modifications if you’re feeling tired, or you can move faster and more powerfully than we do to really make those muscles work. You can
also move back and forth between the modifications as you need to. Whatever you do, make sure to stay present and to push yourself the entire time –
all while listening to your body. Turn on some music that motivates you, and get to work.
