Hi Everyone!
It’s workout time! Today’s workout includes a warm-up and cool-down built into the workout. The entire workout will take 26-Minutes.
As always, push yourself for max reps during the workout portion of the exercises. Focus on maintaining good form. Form and intensity will make a difference in your results. Good form ensures that you are utilizing the appropriate muscles. Intensity helps you build lean muscle, while burning fat.
If you need to modify an exercise that’s totally fine! Where there is a will there’s a way. Listen to your body. As long as you find the workout challenging you are getting benefits from the exercises.
I mentioned in my last post that my son has been sick. Last month was really rough on our family’s health. Maverick and I were sick twice, and Jesse was sick once. Overall our household was sick for an entire month. Maverick still has a stuffy nose (and so do I), but he is on the mend. Last night I finally got some rest. I have felt like a zombie for the last week, because I become virtually nonfunctioning without appropriate amounts of sleep. I was drinking copious amounts of coffee, and still feeling tired all day long.
I teach my jogging class today, so I will be getting in about a 4-mile running workout with my students. Do you like when I post break downs of our running workouts? We have been doing a different workout/type of run each week in my class. This was the last running workout breakdown I posted: VO2 Max Running Workout: Fat Burning & Speed Building Workout.
My Half Marathon is in one month, and I feel very unprepared. I know that I can last through the whole distance, but I think it’s going to be challenging this time around. I really need to stay on track (and healthy!!!) this month so I can maintain my running schedule.
Also, don’t forget your Burpees today! Today is Day 12 of the #30BurpeeChallenge.
I hope you enjoy today’s workout! Let me know what you think!
