This sandbag workout is a leg workout, but the truth is that I am not only feeling it m the legs, and that’s glutes, quads, hamstrings and calves! but also my arms and shoulders. I have a serious need to really stretch it out today. This sneaky sandbag workout got me more than I anticipated, which is great!  It has 2 parts. The first is a time challenge and an awesome sequence of exercises combining cardio, jumping around, the sandbag and burpees. Who could ask for more?  This is followed up with a second part of HIIT training, 10 minutes of all sandbag exercises.   || Read more

This 12 minute Ugi workout is a HIIT workout made up of all Ugi exercises. There are 5 exercises and you go through them in intervals, with the feature exercise – Ugi Cross Core Abs getting repeated. I am always looking for ways to make sit ups more interesting, and I liked the way this exercise works the core and obliques.
