Craving fun workouts? Want to burn fat while having fun? If you are dedicated to your fitness plan but looking to transform the same old boring exercises into a fun workout than can burn fat and more calories then obstacle course workouts is the way to do it.
Lunge races with friends more fun than solo lunges.
Your fun workouts will still include exercises that you already do so pick and choose 5 basic exercises from your regular fitness routine like push-ups, dips, squats, lunges, shoulder presses, rows, curls, and crunches.
Step ups in the park with girlfriends.
Set up a 9 exercise obstacle course using your 5 exercises plus 4 additional exercises using the fun equipment above including: bungee slides, medicine ball sit up drill, cone drill, bungee sprints. 
Try to be a supportive and fun partner.
Perform each exercise for 45-60 seconds working on quality of movement and not quantity. Go from exercise to exercise without resting. Try to combine exercises so that muscle groups don't get fatigued. For example go from lower body to upper body to abs to cone drill etc. Rest for 45-60 seconds then repeat two more times. You should be working hard during your circuits especially during any cone or slide drills. Take turns on exercises requiring a partner making sure each person gets their 45-60 seconds.
Figure four stretches glutes, low back, and groin.
Finish up your workouts with some basic stretches for all the muscles worked. Good ones to include: runner's stretch with reach, hamstring stretch, doorway chest opener, and upper back wall stretch.
Runner's stretch targets hip flexors, quads, abs, and lats.
Try not to skip the stretches or add them in between circuits to save time. This prevents soreness, injuries, and lengthens tight muscles.
