Angelina Jolie Workout

Angelina Jolie's star status has rocketed to new proportions after taking on blockbuster action-film roles in movies like "Tomb Raider" and the 2008 action-flick 'Wanted". Sporting a model's svelte physique in the 90s, Angelina Jolie is now known for her lean, sculpted figure. Jolie's secret to gaining lean muscle mass is her healthy protein-rich diet and high speed, high endurance physical training.

If you want Jolie's tone body figure, kickboxing is key. Kickboxing is a super intense activity that can burn anywhere from 600 to 800 calories per hour. The reason that kickboxing is such a great fat-burning exercise is that the high speed and high repetitions involved give your body the jolt it needs to burn off stubborn fat. While burning this fat you are also simultaneously toning up the muscles in the body and gaining muscle strength. Kickboxing takes a lot of breathing and muscle endurance. Starting a kickboxing routine is very daunting, as one will discover after the initial grueling "warm-up". Making it through your first full-hour of kickboxing is an affair of mind over matter. Many trainers claim that 80% of beginners can't make it through the entire class the first time they come. Keep this in mind as you start out and don't give up if the pace of the class is too much to handle at first. Kickboxing training, like boxing training, is an intense activity that is intimidating to beginners. You will have to exert a lot of will power to keep up, but the results are well worth the effort.
