We’re working on pull ups today. The pull up bar is out!! It’s been awhile since I have done any pull ups and so this one is a tough one for me. But I am on it!

This workout is a designed with clean lines and elegant styling. ; ) It is made up of 2 parts, both are 4 minutes of interval training and both have 2 exercises which you alternate doing for each round. I used my sandbag for one of the exercises in each round, if you don’t have a sandbag you can use a dumbbell, kettle bell, medicine ball or another weighted object instead.
Doing different reps of exercises in interesting combinations make a workout go by fast. Your mind is kept so busy thinking of what to do next and you can easily lose track of time so that before you know it, you are done. This workout took me almost 22 minutes to complete. It is made up of 2 parts. The burpee part – 4 reps of each of 3 different types of burpees – is done 3 times: before, in between, and after the interval parts. Lots of core and ab exercises in this one! || Read more

Well, mission accomplished and I feel really happy with this one. I love them! || Read more

The second is a fun but killer combo that you repeat until you drop or the 3 minutes is up, whichever comes first. I got 4 rounds and was really feeling it at the end. || Read more
