Hi Everyone!
Everyone responded so well to the 30 Day Challenge that I have decided to have another challenge!
This month's challenge is a Tight and Toned Lower Body Challenge. (Next Month we will be doing a Sculpted Abs Challenge).
To start out this challenge I have a Fitness Check Challenge for the lower body. Tomorrow I will be filming a body weight variation of this challenge for anyone who doesn't have access to weights at home.
The format of this workout is different. You have two options:
1. Set your timer for 20 minutes and complete as many rounds as possible (with good form) in that time.
2. Complete up to three rounds for time.
Keep track of your rounds/time for this workout. We will be repeating this one. It's a great way to check your progress and challenge yourself to improve.
If you are joining me for the challenge don't forget to check in on Facebook, Instagram or Twitter. The check in posts are a great way to stay motivated and on track. :)
Have fun!

Hey, so I'm a runner but need to start incorporating some HIIT into my routine along with some weight training. I presume these workouts should serve as a supplement to my runs? Or should they replace a workout/run? Just curious what your thoughts are! :)
ReplyDeleteYour blog is distinctive. I have found your blog innovative. You have chosen very incredible theme for your sketch. I cherished it.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Lauren's question. I am a runner too and I am not really sure how to find the right balance between running &HIIT/strength training. How do decide how much is enough or too much. I want to continue to improve my speed as a runner and distance as well, but I don't want to give up the muscle definition and fat burn I get with your workouts.
ReplyDeleteI really got into this article. I found it to be interesting and loaded with unique points of interest. I like to read material that makes me think. Thank you for writing this great content.
