Healthy Fitness Challenge: Week 11, Day 4

Every weekday, join "The Mo'Nique Show" on a 12-week workout program with Hollywood trainer Jeanette Jenkins.

Inspiration/Motivation: You already have everything within you to be successful, you just have to reach inside and pull it out.
Warmup: Back, bis, and thighs (interval or circuit format to keep your heart rate elevated); core; stretch-it-out.

Exercise of the Day: Lunge and bicep curls—this is a great exercise to tone the legs, biceps and abs.

Exercise Tip: Try doing drop sets to increase muscle tone and burn more fat. Start by lifting the heaviest weight you can push/pull for 15 reps with great form, then drop the weight by 50% and complete 10 more reps.
