Hi Everyone!
Day 4 of my 30 Day Workout Challenge is complete! Today’s workout is focused on building strength and definition to the arms and lower body. One round took me about 12 minutes. I followed it up with jump roping to ensure that I hit my 15 minutes for the day. I did 500 jumps over my jump rope, which took between 3-4 minutes.
This workout can be repeated if you want a longer, more intense workout.
I used two 20 lb dumbbells, and my barbell is 75 lbs. Choose a weight that is challenging for you, and focus on using appropriate form.
I am starting to feel changes in my endurance and energy throughout the day.
Enjoy the workout!

Great video! I am trying to get back into a regular workout routine. Whenever I try a 30 day challenge I always fail. I was thinking about purchasing trainging from http://www.professionalfitness.com to help me stay motivated. I lose interest so fast. How do you stay motivated?
Melissa, just finished day 4…wow…I did 2 rounds…and it felt great! Thank so much for the inspiration and the great videos.. Cant wait for day 5!

Day 4 complete!
Liked this workout so much I did it twice! Day 4 complete 🙂
Good one!!!
Just finished Day 4 today too! I was a day behind so I did day 3 and 4 today! Awesome workout!!! Excited for tomorrow!!!!
Can you give some suggestions of ways to make this just as difficult without weights? I live as a volunteer in Costa Rica and don’t quite have the capital to procure them.
Do you have anything you can use for added resistance? Water jugs filled with sand or rocks, a book bag, basically anything that will allow you to have a bit of extra challenge. Resistance bands also work, but I imagine that would be difficult to come by.
I hope you enjoy your trip & have a great volunteer experience. I would love to visit Costa Rica one day. 🙂
Just finished day 4. Ache all over!!! Thanks Jane (UK) for recommending this to me!
Had to skip a day due to leg soreness so today is day four. Shorter workout so I did it twice. I need heavier weights for some of the exercises. See you tomorrow!
What if I don’t have the barbell what can I use instead? I only have dumbbells
You can use the dumbbells instead. 🙂
Did day one and day four. It kicked my butt. great workouts.
Awesome! Great challenging combo!
