Quickest way to jump start your new YOU!

New Year's is right around the corner...
and before that is the gauntlet of food and gorging.

Now I am not saying don't eat. In fact, heck go ahead and have a great time, knock yourself OUT!
BUT... do it with this (Metabolism Jumpstart Workout) in your back pocket and you won't be starting your New Year's resolution of 'get fit enough to wear a swim suit by summer' 10 pounds heavier than last year.

Did I mention that it only takes 4 minutes to speed your metabolism up?
Yup.
You heard it here... F.O.U.R. minutes baby... hey it takes longer than that to pull up facebook and scroll through/stalk everyone's facebook updates.

Here it is....

Get your timer out with stopwatch mode, (cause you will need the seconds timer) and start it!
