6 Minute Heart Pumping Workout!

We’ve all been in that situation when there just isn’t enough time to get a workout in, or at least that’s what we think. When it seems like you don’t have enough time to workout, the secret is to just do a non stop workout with whatever amount of time you do have and if you have access to some weights that’s even better.

This heart pumping workout only takes 6 minutes.

In 6 minutes do as many rounds as possible of:

6 Deadlifts

12 Burpees Over A Bar

And if all else fails you can always just do burpees when you only have time for a few minutes of working out!

Workout Wednesday: BOSU Ball Circuit

It feels like it has been forever since I’ve posted a new Workout Wednesday Workout! And that’s because I’ve been sidelined by my 5th concussion for the entire summer! But I’m back and ready to keep making some great workouts for you to try!

For this workout you will need a BOSU Ball and a jump rope. A BOSU Ball is the “ball” at the gym that looks like it has been cut in half. I love using them for a variety of different things and with this workout  you can sculpt your entire body with one!

– Do 20 seconds of each exercise for 2 rounds.

1. BOSU Ball Squats (Standing On Flat Side)

2. Pushups With Alternating Leg Crunch

3. Forward Rocks

4. Side To Side Rocks

5. BOSU Ball Lunges (With One Foot On The Round Side)

– Do 20 seconds on EACH leg when you get to the lunges.

– After you complete 2 rounds on the BOSU Ball do 100 Double Unders or 100 single jumps with your jump rope.

XOXO – Abbey

Motivation Monday: No Excuses – Just Do It

10313645_719162768143016_50533855569842299_n

 

Stop making excuses and start going after your goals. You are always going to be able to come up with an excuse to skip a workout or have a cheat meal instead of a nutritious one. But the thing is, you need to be better than your best excuse if you want to reach those goals! When it comes down to it you need to think what do I want more? To skip this workout or actually see the results you want. It’s up to you and only you.

Right now I’m already over 8 WEEKS IN OF NO WORKING OUT while I’m still trying to recover from my concussion. So because I can’t use exercise as a way to obtain my health and fitness goals that means I need to put 100% of my efforts into eating clean and getting the rest that my body and brain needs. 


That’s my goal right now…what’s yours?

 

XOXO – Abbey
