This workout is made up of 3 rounds and in each round you do 12 reps of 3 different exercises. Yesterdays date, Dec 12, 2012 (12/12/12) inspired this workout and I really got into the triple part of it. Each of the three exercises ended up with a triple part to it: 3 plank jacks in the burpees, 3 pulses for the squats and 3 points for each rep of the ab chops, so really you do 36 ab chops per round. I thought the workout was fun and moved along well and it was a great one to get back into the groove after my week away. || Read more
The goal of this workout is to get through 40 reps of 5 different exercises as quickly as you can. And I promise you that that sounds easier than it is! But this workout has some great, fun and dynamic exercises.and you will really feel this in the legs after! I think this is mainly from the first exercise – 3 Pulse Surfer Squat Jumps with Drop Down, as I could feel the burn after 10 reps. This exercise and the 3 Pulse Jump Lunges are great for building strong leg muscles and they work on the glutes, hamstrings and quad muscles, to help create all around strong sexy legs!
This workout is filled with jumps and will have you jumping all over the place and in every direction. It’s very dynamic and active. The workout has 3 parts, each is made up of tabata intervals and in each tabata you alternate doing 2 exercises. I think it’s a really fun one filled with some great exercises and the time goes by really fast. Hope you like this one too! || Read more
This ab workout is made up of 6 exercises and flows from one into the other, lying sideways on mat you start with a crunch (facing upwards) and then roll over and do an exercise facing down, then roll back and do one facing up, roll over and do one facing down and again one up and one down and that is one round. You do 20 reps of each exercise until the last one which has 10. I found it best to memorize the order and when I wrote it on a piece of paper found that was enough to help remember them so I could just go through the sequence easily. || Read more
This 12 minute workout has 3 tabata parts in it (Follow that link to read more on tabatas!). Each of the parts has 2 exercises in it: a crunch type ab exercise and a plank type exercise, also great for the abs. The time goes by quick and because you are alternating the exercises you just have 4 periods for each of them, so put as much into each one as you can so that you really feel it afterwards and so you get the most out of the workout. || Read more
This workout might be more appropriately named Shoulder Cap Burnout! The goal is to have you feeling it and feel the burn, not hurting in a bad way of course, just a little burn to build the muscle. The focus of this workout is really the lateral arm raises. I love this exercise as it helps build great shoulder caps which look really great on the body! The arm raises work the medial head of the deltoid muscles, that is the shoulders. There are 3 muscles here: anterior (front), posterior (back) and medial in the middle – that’s our focus! || Read more
This 15 minute upper body workout is aimed to turn you into a jumgle hopping tree swinging monkey in no time. It has 3 of my favorite types of push ups: breakdance push ups, reptile push ups and roll back and up to push up. Push ups are a great classic bodyweight exercise, and is a classic because it works well to build a great shape and especially works the arms, chest and shoulders. Think it can’t get any more fun? Think again. This has lots of fun plank jumps and pull ups to change it up and keep the workout upbeat and lively. Ok, I’ll admit it. It’s tough. But it feels good after, and it’s done in 15 minutes. Quick, fun, effective. Ready? || Read more
