Wake Me Up Morning ⊕ Cardio Blaster!

Hi Loves!

I wanted to share my morning work-out routine that I do. This little baby has helped me reach closer to my fitness and weight goals. I know most of us are pressed for time when it comes to working out. But in all reality you are the only person in the way. The world around you is a gym. You can essentially work-out anywhere, it's all about thinking outside of the box. You can do these in your house, at the gym, at the park, in your office, like I said anywhere.

Start with a 2 minute warm-up
30 Seconds Jump Rope
30 Seconds High Knees
(repeat)

Circuit1(4 Minutes)
50 Seconds Half Burpee with a Push-Up
10 sec Rest
50 Seconds Sumo Squat Jumps with weight in Hand

10 Sec Rest
50 Seconds: 2 Spider man Push ups, 2 plank tuck Jumps 1 Push up
20 Sec Rest

50 Seconds Ab crunches on Ball
10 Sec Rest
50 Seconds Plank Slides into inverted Plank

You will feel charged up after this and ready for anything. When you are done remember to stretch. Flexibility is all part of a healthy body. Be good to your body and it will be good to you.

Deck of Cards ♠ Workout

Hi friends! I have a fool proof way to squeeze in a work-out without any excuses.

This workout was passed along to me by an avid cross-fitter. She saw the idea on a episode of Biggest loser, so I decided to take the idea and run with it.


I took a standard deck of cards that I had in the house and By suit I assigned a workout to them, the number on the card represents how many reps I will do for that exercise.
Aces: 60 seconds rest
Hearts: Crunches
Spades: Push-ups
Diamonds: Lunges
Clubs: Squats
Jokers:
  •  Card 1: 5 burpee's with a Tuck Jump.
  •  Card 2: 10 Squat Jumps
King; Climbers x10
Queen: Mountain 
Jacks: Jumping Jacks x10
Wild cards: I had two of these .
  • Card 1: Flutter Kicks x10
  • Card 2: 30 sec Jump Rope
Pull 10 random cards and set them on a flat surface. When you complete on exercise turn the card over and move on to the next. Rest after you completed exercise #10 for 1 minute. Then repeat the entire circuit.
 
Go for a minimum of 2 Rounds.
