I love adding in new exercises to my routine and this is one of my favorite leg exercises to add in! I usually do my 30 minute workout for the day and add this exercise in 2-3 times per week. If you want to feel a great leg burn try out this out.
There are 5 exercises, each move last 20 seconds. Rest 10 seconds in between each move, repeat the cycle 3 times total. I use a timer to help me keep track of the 20 seconds on, 10 second rest. 1) 180 squat 2) alternating back lunge with leg kick 3) low jacks 4) curtsy lunge with knee tuck 5) pulse squat jumps If you want to really challenge yourself, do this exercise 3 times per week. On Monday do the set 3 times, Wednesday do the set 5 times, and Friday do the set 7 times! If you are interested in joining me in my fitness journey email me or fill out the application below!
This week I started the new dance/workout program from Shaun T and Beachbody called CIZE. I had tried the program online through the on-demand feature through Beachbody. The first time doing one of the dance routines was pretty comical, I mean let's be honest I can't dance and have no rhythm. I was laughing, sweating and having fun the whole time though! A few days later I wanted to try it again because the program had just gone a sale. This time around I was a little better because I had done the moves before! Now, you are probably thinking "there is no way I could do this" "how can this be a workout." I had the same thoughts until I purchased the program. I am on day 4 and let me tell you, I am so sore! Tuesday morning I woke up and was like how can I be sore from a 30 minute dance. Wednesday my booty and obliques (side abs) were on fire! I can't wait to see my results after I complete the 4 week program. How the program works: The program comes with 3 discs. On each disc there are 2 routines and the 8 minute ab workout. There are 2 options for following the program beginner which is 6 weeks long and advanced which is 4 weeks long. With the beginner you do the same routine for 6 days and the next week start a new routine. The advanced program is 2 routines per week and you alternate days. So for instance, I started this week and did 'Crazy 8's' Monday and 'You Got This' Tuesday, and then I repeat these for 6 days. Next week I start 2 new routines. If you are thinking there is no way I could I follow or learn a dance routine. I thought the same thing! In each routine the moves are broken down step-by-step and repeated until you feel comfortable. This makes learning the routines easier. Once you have learned all the moves you get to bust out your skills to music. You will honestly have so much fun and be amazed at how good you do!
