We have no doubt your body is already wonderful and uniquely beautiful as is, but if you’re looking for moves to tighten all the right places while burning fat, you’ve landed at the right spot. To mix in fat-targeting exercises to your next fitness session, we tapped Shannon Nadj, founder of Hot Pilates in Los Angeles, to share what she does to burn fat.
“Strength-focused workouts are a great way to sculpt and burn fat,” said Shannon. “This series incorporates weights in movement patterns that help elongate the muscle. Throughout each move, concentrate on form, precision, and initiating from your core. In order to sculpt, rather than bulk, use lighter weights between three and eight pounds.” Learn the 15-minute at-home rotation below.
