Love HIIT: 10 Minute Dumbbell Workout
Hi Everyone!
Today's workout is a quick, high intensity (HIIT) workout. In the video I say that my intervals are 50 seconds, with 10 seconds of rest, but afterwards I realized I did 60 seconds, 10 seconds of rest.
I was sweating, and I definitely felt like I got a great workout in! For this workout I used 2 dumbbells, and a stability ball for the last move.
If you don't have a stability ball, the final move can be performed on the floor. No dumbbells? Try soup or veggies cans. As always, this workout can also be performed with body weight only.
Enjoy the workout!
Melissa

I have gone through so many fitness blogs and at-home workout sites and I have never consistently visited one like I do yours. Your workouts are not intimidating, you explain everything thoroughly, you are motivating without being annoying (seriously, that is apparently hard to do since you are the first person that doesn't even remotely annoy me)and you are just super real. I love it! Keep doing what you do! :)
ReplyDeleteI am so glad I found you! Have been through several fitness sites but yours looks really amazing! so much amazing content and you seem like a lovely person. Already recommended you to my friends. looking forward to working out with you! :)
