Naomi Joy Fitness: Trampoline Workout // Lower Body Burner Circuit // Cardio & Strength // Heavy Weights

Wow! What an excellent workout! Naomi Joy‘s rebounder workouts are always challenging, effective and lots of fun. This one is no exception. This is also one of her more advanced workouts. Lower Body Burner Circuit // Cardio & Strength // Heavy Weights is cardio + strength lower body burn out workout. My lower body is still singing from this workout. I adore Naomi’s other hour long lower body rebounder workout in which the strength exercises are body weight only (Jump Lower Body Strength & Cardio)–that workout fries my legs without any weights. Now I have a new favorite! I love cardio + strength workouts and Naomi creates the very best using a rebounder for the cardio intervals. For the majority of this workout you use dumbbells for the strength exercises but the last 11 minutes (Circuit 4), you use the rebounder to completely finish off your lower body with body weight mat exercises. During the final exercise I was struggling to push through those last few seconds–the burn! Speaking of burn, I burned 429 calories and spent a total of 30 minutes in my peak heart rate zone. She also has a new (to me) exercise in this workout–squat jumps + cross jack feet that I loved. What a fun move!

As the title indicates, this is a circuit based workout. There are 4 circuits. The first 3 circuits are cardio + strength circuits that each contain 6 exercises. You do the first 3 circuits two times. The exercises are also done interval style: 45 seconds of work followed by 15 seconds of recovery. The 4th circuit is different and it is not repeated. It is all mat style lower body exercises to completely finish off and burn out your lower body. The intervals are also different lengths. No dumbbells are used in circuit 4 and there are also no cardio exercises. There is a timer in the lower right hand side of the screen, counting down your total workout time. There is another timer in the upper right hand side of the screen counting down your intervals and recoveries. Naomi previews the next exercise during the recoveries. This workout is done voice over with motivating music.
