Hiit Workout For An Apple Shaped Body

apple-shape-body-workout

Hey, my apple shaped ladies, are you looking for an apple body workout that will help with your apple body shape, but you can't find a complete program on the web, I have one for you.

Apple bodies carry fat and weight around their abdominal region and their lower body is generally slimmer with shapely legs. Apples are also prone to having a rounded shoulder line and most but not all have a flat derriere.

The workout plan best for you are as follows:
  • High-intensity cardiovascular interval training 
  • Gluteal workout plan
  • Abdominal program or Pilates for the core
The high-intensity cardiovascular interval training is an intense workout that involves intervals of short periods of anaerobic exercise (like sprinting) and a short period of rest or recovery. Short, high-intensity workouts are effective for increasing fitness levels and as a "fat-blaster" which apples need to annihilate fat from their midsections.

Since most apples tend to have flat derrieres and the goal would be to grow the gluteus muscles so you can add some wanted curves to your shape. You will need a butt building routine one or two days a week. 

Lastly, but very important, you will work your core at least two days a week for 30 minutes. Even though you cannot spot reduce to have flat ABS, working your core will make your midsection stronger and of course, may help your posture.
