Transform Your Body in 30 Minutes a Day

The Plan

Time's not always on your side. That's why this ultra-efficient workout from Jari Love, creator of the best-selling "Ripped!" line of fitness DVDs, is one of our new favorites. It not only sculpts sexy abs, butt, and thighs in just 30 minutes, it blasts up to three times the calories of a typical routine, says Love, who lab-tested the workout. "Because you're working several muscle groups at once, your heart rate gets higher, so you burn more calories," she says. Do both the strength workout and the cardio circuit twice a week and in as little as 14 days you'll feel stronger. Who wouldn't want to make more time for that?
