Total Body Recharge: 8 Energy-Boosting, Muscle-Toning Moves

Pick Up Sticks

What you'll need: A mat

Targets: Abs, butt, hips, and quads

Stand with feet hip-width apart, arms by sides.
Lunge forward with right leg, bending right knee 90 degrees, left leg extended behind you, and reach right hand to ground beside right foot.
Return to start, switch sides and repeat. MAKE IT HARDER: Jump up between lunges and switch legs in midair to alternate sides or take shorter steps and lunge faster.
Do 10 reps per leg.

Trainer's tip: To help support your lower back, keep your core engaged as you reach toward the mat.
