Workouts

Tonight I decided to post what kinds of workouts I've been doing for the past few weeks. When I started the 21 day challenge I began the Piyo Workout with Charlene Johnson. It's a cross between Yoga and Pilates, but with continuous movement. I am not a fan of either yoga or pilates, because it's just to slow paced for me, but I've really been enjoying the Piyo workouts and they really workout your whole body.  The workout can be viewed on Beachbody OnDemand or through purchasing on the Beach Body website. Here's what it looks like:


There is a daily schedule to follow with the program, so I'll usually do what is directed, but afterwards i'll do 1-2 mini workouts afterwards that last about 6-10 minutes. During these workouts I'll focus on specific areas such as: abs, thighs, or weight training. For these mini workouts I'll use Blogilates and Popsugar workouts.

You can access both through YouTube. They have tons of fitness videos for free, which is awesome. My favorites from blogilates are her 6 minute abs, thighs, and booty workouts. For Popsugar I use a lot of their weight training videos.

There are a lot of great fitness videos out there for free on YouTube. It's such a great resource! Sometimes I also use these mini workout videos at the end of the day when I feel like I haven't made the best eating choices. It's just a quick way to burn off some of that nasty goo that accumulates throughout the day, especially when you're running around and not able to chose the most healthy meals.  (Quick tip: For some kids parties and outings I have packed my own meal prep containers in a lunch baggie and I take it with me. That way I can eat healthy and know I'm not stuffing down pizza or greasy foods. It's also a way to not feel so guilty when I decide to have a bite of cake).

Hope this helps! Happy Monday night!!! <3
