Hi Everyone!
Welcome to this week’s workout schedule! We have six fabulous workouts on the agenda this week. If you scroll down you will find the workout playlist, as well as individual links to each workout breakdown.
I try to aim for 30-60 minutes of total workout time per day. Remember, all exercise counts. If you’re short on time get in one good round of a short workout. You are looking for consistency over time. For me, being consistent requires some workout days that are super short, but intense.
It has been a busy few weeks in the Bender household. I’m teaching four kinesiology courses, and we are in the final stretch of the semester. I am focusing on making sure I get in my workouts, as well as a daily meditation.
I have a huge stack of new workouts written and ready to film. I just need to find a free moment so we can get back to filming.
I am also continuing to focus on eating a variety of nutrient dense foods. That means lots of fruits, vegetables and lean meats.
Bonus Challenge:
In the Advanced Yoga course that I teach, I am having my students participate in a daily gratitude practice.
It’s a very simple practice, but it can have wonderful mental health benefits. The goal is to find three things on a daily basis to be grateful for. Taking time to reflect on the positive moments each day, is linked to greater personal life satisfaction and happiness.
This week, I challenge you to add this mental training into your routine. Work on your physical health, mental health, and emotional health.
As always, thank you for working out with me. One of the things I am most grateful for is sharing my love for health and fitness with you.
I will see you soon with new workouts! Let me know what you think of this week’s workout schedule!
