Move Your Body!

“Well, since the gyms are closed I guess I can’t workout.” I’m guessing quite a few of us wanted so badly for this to be a valid excuse to not move our bodies when we all know deep down that isn’t. Home workouts are HARD! Let me tell ya. Especially when you have to be home all dang day! It’s hard to get yourself motivated enough to actually do it. I’m fortunate that I have gym equipment in my basement and It’s still incredibly difficult for me to get my butt down there. But, I have to keep telling myself this, In 3 months from now, I’ll be glad I didn’t give up, I’ll be glad that I kept going. Discipline and determination are the key factors between success and failure. And I want to succeed. I want to prove to myself that I can do it. No one else is going to do it for me. I’m still working full time from home, while taking care of a 3 month old by myself! So, I’m taking advantage of the fact that I don’t have any driving time. As soon as I am done with work, I don’t even let myself ponder if I am going to workout, I put my laptop away, immediately go downstairs and just get started. And guess what? Never once have I ever regretted a workout. And I about DIED during tonights, and it felt SO GOOD! Let’s all come out of this quarantine strong and healthy, mentally and physically! Utilize this time to do all the things you’ve been putting off or said you’ve been “too busy” to do. Whatever that may be, not just fitness related! But, I wanted to share the workout I did tonight with you all. If you don’t have gym equipment at your house, you can use household items! Like gallons of water, fill a duffle bag with can goods or books for weight, fill purses or bags with heavy items as well to use for weight. (I tested this and it works great lol) If you don’t have resistance bands, just use weights (or what you can find) instead!

Repeat circuit 4 times

Then: 100 Russian twists and 50 crunches to finish!

No rests between sets, only rest between circuits.

Happy Sweating!
