And I might also do "The Biggest Loser" video every single day...

So is this a good workout plan?

If not what can I change?This will be my workout plan for over the break...

And how long should I go jogging/running if I want slimmer thighs that are less muscular(they are muscular now)?

PS:Don't care for the love me bull-ish or be happy with yourself,just advice:)

It's a good plan, as long as you look at the purposes...

The sparkteen 10 minute workout is more oriented to maintaining what you currently have, rather than losing weight, burning fat, or building muscle.

The 10-15 minutes of jogging is not nearly enough. Jogging is cardio, and cardio has 2 major purposes. Increasing bloodflow and heart strength, and burning fat. A 15 minute jog isn't nearly enough to get the heart pumping fast enough to be effective for either of those. If you want a fast run, 15-20 minutes at 7-8 minutes a mile. If you want a slow run, it would take 30-45 minutes at a 10-12 minute mile pace.

The30-60 minute aerobic kickboxing (i.e. Tae-Bo) is an amazing workout. I'm pretty fit, and I have trouble keeping up with the instructors. You burn in places you ddn't know you had. Go for the long class. You'll feel great when it's done.

Through it all, make sure you drink TONS of water. 16oz of water for every 30 minutes of cardio and 8oz for every 30 minutes of muscular strength training... in addition to the 64oz you should be drinking every day anyway

I am not familiar with the sparkteen deal, what type of workout is it? Have you ever tried pilates? It's worked wonders for my hips and thighs. I have naturally muscular thighs, but with cardio and pilates I finally have a little gap between my thighs and they are much thinner. Your routine is a little intense for me, but it seems well rounded. I am not familiar with jogging or how long is most beneficial, but most people say minimum of 30 minutes cardio is needed to be most effective. I am not released to jog yet but I power walk 30-60 minutes every other day.

Sparkteen is actually a website either for you to maintain a healthy weight or lose weight,they have exercise and food logs as well as articles on healthy living,how to workout properly and they even have videos.

I haven't,but I need to get down to my goal weight,which includes burning fat which means cardio then the toning will come along(pilates or calisthetics)

Oh OK, it sounds similar to the website I use. Its good that there is a site geared towards teens, I would have love something like that when I was younger. Anyway your plan seems geared to to burn fat, so you should get the results you are looking for, just make sure your heart rate is staying where it needs to be to burn fat. Good luck.
