Fastest way to get in shape for spring break?

[fsugirl13]

The title pretty much says it, but I really want to get in better shape. I'm 5'7" or 5'8" and I weigh about 120 lbs. I'm not trying to lose weight, I mainly just want to firm up and get some definition. I have nooo definition what so ever. Does anyone have any ideas? And if you have any idea, let me know about how long it will take. :)

Abs 3 days a week (pistons, ab rollouts or medball planks)

weights 4 days a week(arms, legs, back, chest) low weight 50-60% high rep (15-20)

cardio 6 days a week (running, cycling, swimming)(30-45min)

diet 6 days a week ( Just watch what you eat and try not to eat to much junk food but don't feel bad for taking a day off)

try and space out your abs days as well as your weights days. If you don't work out a lot right now then just try and get as many sets in as you can with minimal rest between them. If you work out often then I'm not going to tell you to change your routine. Anyway good luck

Thank you! About how long do you think it'll take to see results? My spring break's in 2 weeks and I'm kind of hoping that I'll see a difference by then :)

It depends on how often you currently workout if your a newbie then you'll probably get results very quickly but if your a gym rat gains are gonna be slower. if you only have two weeks push yourself and don't skip any workouts

Jump in a decent 25m or 50m pool and start cranking out laps. On the days that you don't fee like swimming then go running, cycling, whatever. Key thing is to watch your diet and avoid unnecessary sugars and such. The only true way to "firm up" is to put on a bit of muscle and to reduce the amount of fat that is covering said muscle.

Less eating. Lots of cardio and sweating.
