YOGA POSES: BURN FAT

Burn Fat Faster with these Yoga Exercises

Combine yoga exercises and strength training to build sexy muscles with part seven of our 20-Minute Workout Series

Jenny Everett / Workout by Amy Dixon

Strength-Training Yoga There isn't a woman in the world who doesn't want to multitask. So we asked WH columnist Amy Dixon, an exercise physiologist and group fitness manager for Equinox in Santa Monica, California, to create a workout that builds muscle, improves flexibility, and melts away stress.

These moves roll yoga and strength into one neat package. They're so effective because every exercise calls on your entire core and requires balance (thanks to the yoga moves), so your whole body--not just the targeted muscle--works through its full range of motion. Tackle the moves two nonconsecutive days a week and you'll notice sleeker definition--and a calmer mindset--within four weeks.
