The Pin Twins’ easy fat-burning workout routine
Fitness
Personal trainers Esther and Gemma Pineda, known as Pin Twins, propose a 12-minute circuit that must be practiced daily to stay in shape
If a few days ago Esther and Gemma Pineda, known as Pin Twins, proposed a 10-minute exercise routine ideal for beginners at ABC Bienestar, this week they propose one more step of difficulty. The personal trainers, specialized in bodybuilding, fitness and weightlifting have prepared a new exercise routine that, although they are still for a basic level, involve a bit more difficulty and a longer duration, as they propose to do the circuit in 12 minutes and then repeat it a few three times, with a one minute break between each set. The goal of this easy exercise circuit is to burn fat.
12 minutes a day
The easy exercise routine that Esther and Gemma Pineda propose for this week includes 6 cardio exercises (beginner or basic level) that must be performed in a row. Each exercise will be done for 30 seconds and it is not necessary to use any material to practice them.
Upon completing the series of 6 exercises, the coaches, who were professional swimmers for 11 years and now dedicate their professional lives to training, propose a one-minute break and then invite to repeat the circuit three times until completing approximately one training session. 12 minutes of exercise daily. The goal of the routine is to “burn fat,” as Gemma and Esther Pineda explain.
1. Raise from heel to buttock
To practice this exercise you must raise while jumping the heels towards the buttocks and synchronize the movement with the hands. Remember that, when practicing this exercise, you must control the position because one of the mistakes that is usually made, as explained by the Pin Twins, is to raise the heels outwards. Practice time: 30 seconds.
2. Skipping on the site
The race raising knees or skipping is one of the best known exercises for training and learning the running technique. To practice it, the Pin twins advise taking care of the position so that we avoid leaning the trunk forward. Practice time: 30 seconds.
3. Side jumps with a support
When practicing this type of vertical jump, it is important, according to Gemma Pineda, that the supporting leg is not flexed and that the sole of the foot is not supported either. It is important to keep a steady pace. Practice time: 30 seconds.
4. Full squat
The “squat” or squats allow you to develop muscles, strengthen the tendons and ligaments of the legs and also tone the buttocks and strengthen the hips. When practicing the exercise, the Pin twins remember that it is important to place the feet at shoulder height and maintain the width of the legs during the entire movement. Practice time: 30 seconds.
5. Skier scissors
To practice this exercise we must keep the knees in front throughout the movement, keep the arms at the sides and the palms of the hands towards the hips. It is also important to coordinate the movement with the legs. Practice time: 30 seconds.
6. Vertical jumps touching the ground
During the practice of this exercise, the abdomen must be kept activated and it is important that the arms are not flexed during the vertical jump, according to Esther Pineda. Practice time: 30 seconds.
Once the series of exercises is finished, the personal trainers propose an active rest of one minute (“Don’t lie down, take the opportunity to become aware of your body, breathe and take energy for the next batch!”, They explain) and repeat the circuit three times (with that same break between sets).
