Get Your Best Summer Body Ever: Six Cardio Moves

There are ways to slim down and have that perfect summer body. The right exercises and diet can help you to have your best summer body ever.

Exercise is very important when trying to lose weight or tone your body. Exercise burns calories which in return will help you lose weight. Exercise also tones the muscles of the body so you can look your best. A great key in achieving that great summer body is exercise, which focuses on the key body parts that you want to tone. Cardio exercises are great for the body. Cardio exercises not only give your muscles a workout, but work your heart and lungs as well. Below are a few cardio exercises that will help you work on getting your best summer body.

1. Froggy Jumps

Froggy jumps are a great way to get your heart rate up during your workout while giving your lower body an intense workout. They do not require any special equipment. Simply squat all the way down to the floor, in one move push up from the floor, tapping your heels together in the air.

2. Squat Thrusts

This exercise works the entire body, working on your lungs and heart rate. Squat thrusts also improve your power and endurance. From a squat position, thrust your legs back so that you are in a push-up position, and then move back to the original squatting position.

3. Mountain Climber

The mountain climber gives your heart a great workout while building power and endurance in the legs. Start in a squat position with one leg extended to the back. Jump and switch legs so that you are alternating back and forth.

4. Toe Taps with Jumps

The toe tap with jumps is a great cardio activity that is wonderful for your legs. Stand in front of a step or platform. Touch the right toe to the step, jump up and switch the feet in mid-air, touching the left toe to the step.

5. Long Jumps

Long jumps are not only great for your heart rate but your core gets a workout as well. Stand with feet together and make sure you have plenty of space in front of you. Lower into a squat and jump forward as far as you can in one movement. Land with bent knees to protect the joints. Jump forward again, continuing for the length of the room.

6. Plyo-Jacks

This exercise is similar to a slower paced jumping jack. Begin with feet together and lower into a squat, bringing the arms in front of you. Jump the feet out, landing in a squat and circling the arms up and over the head. Jump up once again, bringing the feet together and circling the arms back down.

Caution

Before beginning any exercise regime you should check with your physician for approval. If you experience any significant pains while performing these exercises, discontinue the exercise and then consult your physician immediately.
