HIIT

If you saw my post on Instagram, you know this HIIT workout was my first cardio session in 2.5 MONTHS.  Needless to say, I was about dead when I finished. Dead and SWEATYYYYY.  I mean, my sweat was sweating. 

Anyone else love a good sweat sesh?  I make it a goal of mine to break at sweat at least once a day...and I sometimes meet this goal just chasing my crazy hooligans around - hahaha!

Ok, back to this workout.  It's quick, easy to follow, and it WORKS.  Let's get to it! 

Do each move for 1 minute each back to back without stopping.  When you have cycled through all the moves, take a 30-45 second break to catch your breath.  Then go again!  Aim for 4 rounds - or more if you're feeling like a bad mamma-jamma. 

WARM UP:

JUMPING JACKS

HIIT:

BURPEES WITH HAND-RELEASE PUSHUPS

DUMBBELL SNATCHES

PLANK BALL PASS

THRUSTERS

(WEIGHTED) JUMP ROPE* (WITH SIDE HOPS FOR THE OBLIQUES)

COOL DOWN/STRETCHING

Feel free to tag me in your post workout (sweaty) selfies!  I love seeing my workouts in action! 

Blessings!

* I purchased my weighted jump rope here. It just adds resistance to the movement.  You can use a regular jump rope if that's what you have, or sub jumping jacks for this move all together if jumping rope isn't your thing! 

FULL BODY BLAST

This full-body workout is sure to get you fired up - and work ALL your muscles in just a short period of time! 

The reason it's so short and effective is because of supersets.  Each superset consists of two moves that should be done back to back.  Do one superset of each (so one set of shoulder presses + one set of squats) and then take a 30-45 second break before repeating.  This will a) shorten the workout by working opposing muscles right after each other, and b) keep your heart rate up while still building muscle (read: burning FAT!).
