I have experienced the AMAZING benefits working out on a consistent basis can give you and I feel a strong desire to share some of the ideas and things I have learned with others so they can start getting in their own routine and feel some of the same benefits. Exercise is just one step on the path to better health, which I believe we as a whole are in real need of. Every step counts and you will find as you take one step and begin to feel successful you will find it easier to take more steps.... "not that the nature of the thing has changed but that our power to do has increased." (Ralph Waldo Emerson) I am beginning this blog with this end in mind, to help you take a step; or, if you've taken the step already, to keep on going!

Another Tabata today

Warm up...



Reminder: One Tabata round is 20 seconds high intensity exercise followed by a 10 second rest repeated for eight sets. You can get great tabata apps on your smart phone.

Round 1  Butt kicks/push-ups
Round 2 Wacky Jacks/squat with a twist (squat, up, twist to the right and back, repeat with a twist to the left)
Round 3 high knees/walk out to plank (bend down to touch toes, walk hands out to plank, walk hands back in, stand up, repeat)
Round 4 Forward punches/ forward kicks
Round 5 Calf raises/bridge

I'm not sure how to explain wacky jacks. Good thing this lady posted a video! 


Cool down...
