Weekend Workout | 05.21.16

Weekend Workouts are all about efficiency.  Ain't nobody got time to sit around a gym for an hour on a beautiful Saturday morning.  Get in, get out, get it done.  

Equipment: timer/watch

Time: 12-15 minutes

Start with 2 min of burpees, counting reps,

Then immediately move on to the following 4 exercises, working at max effort.  Transition quickly because there's no rest between exercises.

Squats - 1 min

Pushups - 1 min

Mtn Climbers - 1 min

Situps - 1 min

Repeat these 4 exercises x2, advanced Repeat x3

Finish with Burpees, repeat the same number of reps you hit in the first 2 minutes.  If you hit 25, do 25 again.

Commit to Consistency

Trying to figure out where to start when getting in shape can be overwhelming. If you spend any amount of time on the internet, you’re bound to come across advertisements for pills that claim to incinerate fat, shoes that guarantee a butt lift, and workout routines that promise you a six pack in six weeks. The thing is, if you actually buy into any of these ads, you’re likely to end up worse off than where you started. Not only will you fail to see improvement, but there’s a good chance that in not making progress, you’ll be discouraged to try again. As one of my clients said about a previous fad diet failure, “what’s the point of trying if I’m just gonna fail again?”

But, obviously people are making it happen. There are people out there burning fat, lifting butts and flaunting six packs. So what do they know that other people don’t? How are they able to succeed where other people fall short?

30 Days of Active!

My fitness journey started in hotel rooms. I was eating Taco Bell for breakfast and Jim Beam for dinner. I hated how I felt and had to make a change. But I had no equipment, little time and never knew my schedule day to day. All I knew was that I had to do something.

JUST DO SOMETHING - that was my motto, that was my goal. I challenged myself to be active every day. Push-ups at gas stations, Burpees in hotel rooms. Didn't matter as long as I did it. And it worked.

So now I'm challenging you guys! 30 days of doing something active every day. If you read our last blog post, you saw that we created a guide to help you out. And to show you how effective this challenge can be, we start with a test on Day 1 and a retest on Day 30. To participate, check us out on Instagram! Post a photo of yourself doing something active - whether you follow the guide or not is up to you, just show us that you hustle - and tag us in the pic. Share this with someone and encourage them to participate as well!

Happy Hustle, Fit Fam!
