Use our top-op-toe workout to burn fat, tone up and feel great!

Sure, you want to rock your skinny jeans, flaunt a flat turn in your fave party frocks and show off toned arms in a tank top - but what about when all the clobber comes off? It’s the body of work under your clothes that lays the foundations of confidence, so we’ve devised a workout to help you feel fantastic in your birthday suit.

When you can’t look to clothes for a strategic cover-up, muscle definition becomes crucial in giving your figure that sought-after shape and tone. So, this workout relies on plenty of big, compound moves to build your lean muscle mass and blitz fat, revealing a trim, toned and sexy silhouette in the process. Team this workout with a healthy diet and you’ll see impressive results in your body, as well as your confidence, in no time.
