Metamorphosis
Metamorphosis is a program suited best for women. It was developed by Tracy Anderson, who is well known in the industry for getting celebrities into amazing shape. The program consists of a 30-minute cardio dance workout and 30-minute muscular structure workout. You can do each session together for one 60-minute workout or one in the morning and one in the evening. You will need an exercise mat and a set of 3-lb. dumbbells.
Create Your Own Program
You also can develop your own home workout program. You will need an exercise mat, a piece of equipment for cardio exercise, such as a treadmill or elliptical (or the ability to walk or run outdoors), and a set of weights. You will have to do intense cardio exercise, such as running or walking uphill, most days of the week. You also will need to lift weights. Focus each day of the week on one area of the body. For example, legs on Monday, back on Tuesday, chest on Wednesday, and so on. Be sure to eat a healthy diet, as well, so your lean muscle tissue appears more prominent.
