The Wave a Fun Way Workout at Home

the wave is a fun workout to lose weight.

Your all-in-one gym is here! The wave workout platform that’s rounded on both sides helps you tone up, strengthen your core, and do cardio.

The Wave personal gym can firm and tone your entire body while also doing cardio. With the Wave Personal Gym system you will be able to complete over 100 exercises, flatten your abs, burn tons of calories all while getting a great cardio workout.

You can also turn The Wave over to use like a stepper and also complete ab exercises like an ab machine.

The wave is a unique design, with two usable sides—one for stepping and one for rocking and balance training that is fun and interesting.

The WAVE KIT comes with a lot of cool stuff;  the WAVE itself (that’s the rounded ‘step’), 4 DVDs to use with your WAVE, a small mat for your WAVE (to prevent your WAVE from sliding around on the floor), a poster of exercises you can do on the WAVE (complete with photos and instructions), and more.

There are also a lot of other great workout DVDs and if you like step aerobics you will love the wave. We want to hear what you think about it?

Here are some wave workouts to try:

1. To Sculpt your Biceps and Shoulders:

Do a curl to an overhead press with the wave concave side up, loop a resistance band (included in your kit) through a hole on the front left side.  Stand on the wave, facing the band, with your right foot in front of your left.  Hold an end of the band in each hand, arms at sides and palms facing beyond you, and choke up on the left side (make sure the band is taut.) Curl your left hand to your shoulder, then extend your arm overhead (as shown). Return to starting position and repeat; switch sides to complete set. do 3 sets of 8 reps.

2. To burn more calories do the cardio track

Step onto the center of the wave, then walk feet to edges.  Bend knees slightly, then shift weight to the opposite side and repeat for 3 minutes (as you get better at balancing, pick up the pace).

Burn Calories with an elliptical workout!

Do Dread the treadmill? Hop on the elliptical instead.  Subjects in a recent study burned the same amount of calories on both machines about 160 in 15 minutes workout (that’s 640 an hour!). The elliptical may feel easier, but that’s because most people learn on the handrails, which takes the load off you legs so you don’t have to work as hard, explains Gregory Brown, ph.D., of the University of Nebraska at Kearney. Ditch the reals (or use them only for balance) and pump your arms as if you were running.  Gab a pair of three-pound dumbbells for full-body burn.

Try this 30 minute internal elliptical workout you will burn more calories in less time.

Interval workouts

Have you tried Interval workouts? It is one of the best ways to burn more calories in less time. Internal training is”alternating bursts of intense activity with intervals of lighter activity.” This type of training is commonly used by personal trainers at the gym.

Why Interval Training?

You will burn more calories alternating “intense” exercises with lighter ones. The more intensely you workout (even for a few seconds) the more calories you’ll burn.

Interval training means working very hard for a few minutes, with intervals of lighter exercising.

Consider the benefits of interval workouts:
  1. You’ll burn more calories then you would with a regular exercise routine. The more intensity you add to your exercise routine, the more calories you’ll burn — even if you just increase intensity for just a few minutes at a time.
  2. Your cardiovascular fitness will improve, you’ll be able to exercise longer and more intensity. Imagine finishing your 60-minute cardio routine  in 30 minutes and burning the same amount of calories just by incorporating intensity intervals in your 30 minute routine.
  3. It will also spice up your workout. Turning up your intensity in short intervals can add a challenge to your exercise routine.
  4. It is easy all you need to do is modify your current routine with short intensity intervals.

Below are some Interval Cardio Fitness programs so get started and burn calories!
