100 Workout

Today's workout was a sweat fest ... The 100 Workout! I did bicycle crunches instead of regular crunches and did weighted sumo squats instead of regular squats. The workout took about 40 min (that includes 10 min incline walk on treadmill as a warmup).

Give it a shot! The great thing about this workout is that you can modify it or make it more challenging AND it can be done anywhere!

Life's Sweet Treats

Sometimes in life you just need to treat yourself to a sweet treat! You work hard all week - giving it everything you've got in your workouts & eating clean. Life shouldn't be about being strict 100% of the time, although that's ok if that's what you choose. For me, I choose a healthy balance. My balance consists of intense training & cardio sessions, clean eats and those moments where you can lay back, relax and indulge in life's sweet treats!

Pushed to the EDGE

Tonight's workout was an EDGE workout at The RAC, very similar to a Crossfit WOD:

7 exercises/7 reps/7 rounds:

Jumping Jack/Pushup
Clean & Press
Squat/Touch/Leap
Knees to Elbows
Burpees
Power Lunges
Pull Ups

OH BOY! It took about 30 minutes - a tough, sweaty 30 minutes! But I loved every second of it & it kicked my butt!
