A few months ago, FatFighterTV featured a video of fitness model, Jamie Eason’s plyometrics card routine - a workout she uses when she travels and doesn’t have access to a gym, or when she wants to mix up her regular exercise routine. Jamie also wrote out her plyo workout for FFTV to share with those who would rather read than watch how to do it. With summer travel here, I thought this would be a good time to share it with you. It’s a tough workout, but you can pretty much do it anywhere your summer vacations take you.
Jamie Eason’s Plyo Card Routine
Perform 2 sets of the following exercises all in a row. Use a deck of cards, with the jokers still in the deck, and flip 3 each time. Add up the cards (face cards are ten and aces and jokers are either one or eleven, depending on how fit you are). Perform that many reps and then flip three more. Rest for 2 – 3 minutes between sets. A set is complete after all exercises have been performed in a row.
(15) jump squats
(15) jumping jacks
(15) alternating jump lunges
(15) high knees
(15) mountain climbers
(15) running butt kicks
(15) wide push ups
(15) jumping jacks
(15) bicycle crunches
(Note: the “15†next to the exercises is if you don’t have cards).

This sounds like a great way to liven excerise up a bit. I’m not a fan of excersising, but I think I’ll give it a try and thanks to Jamie for sharing it on your website. I’ll also get my TOPS friends to look it up here
