Toning Workout for Women

Take Your Fitness in a New Direction

Sculpt a stronger, leaner physique by adding twisting and throwing moves into your routine

By Jill Yaworski

Medicine-Ball Scoop and Toss

Hold the ball at your waist and stand so your left side is closest to a wall that's five feet away.
Shift your weight onto your right foot as you scoop the ball back to your right hip, then quickly shift your weight onto your left foot and explosively throw the ball underhand at the wall. Catch the rebound. That's one rep. Do 10, then switch sides.
