Britney’s Weight Loss Workouts

For Weight Loss, the following 3 sessions per week routine is popular:


    5-10 minute warm-up

    30 minutes of cardiovascular activity at 55%-75% of predicted maximum heart rate

    5-10 minute cool-down

    10 minutes stretching and toning
1-3 sets (depending on desired muscle growth and toning) of 8-12 repetitions:

    Leg extension


    Leg curl

    Chest Press


    Shoulder Press

    Seated row

    Bicep curl

    Tricep extension

    Abdominal crunch

For the cardio part of this workout heart rate should be maintained in the fat burning zone, which is the Predicted maximum heart rate (MHR) of 220 less your age. 

This is a classic all-round workout, which provides a good cardio warm-up followed by some weight training to help build and maintain muscle which is essential for intensive dance routines during concerts.
