The St. Patty’s Day Workout may sound silly but it’s actually a very effective fat burning and muscle toning home workout. The equipment needed for this home workout is minimal and includes your own body weight, and some dumbbells. The exercises that are in this workout are especially effective at working multiple muscle groups at one time, and challenging the core muscles as well. This workout alone will help you to burn fat, and increase cardiovascular fitness but it’s recommended that you do one or two additional days of light cardio preferably on the off days as a form of active recovery.
