F-F-Friday baby!!!!!!
You know what that means, itโs time for another round of fit Friday fun ๐๐๐
Raise your hand if youโre ready to get in and get good sweat on?! ๐๐ป๐๐๐ป
Ok, good because that is exactly what we are going to do today!
Today, I thought weโd have ourselves a short and sharp total body toning HIIT style (High Intensity Hit Training) workout that you can get in and get done in just 20 minutes, no equipment required!
Get in, get it done, and get on with living!
So, hereโs what we are going to do โ
6 exercises;
โณ๏ธ Mountain Climbers
โณ๏ธ Push Ups
โณ๏ธ V Ups
โณ๏ธ Walking Lunges
โณ๏ธ Skater Jumps
โณ๏ธ Plank
We will do each exercise for 30 seconds before moving on to the next then we will take a 30 seconds to rest before we repeat the entire sequence through for a total of 4 rounds, or as many rounds a pretty in 20 minutes.
Nothing complicated, basic movements done with good form for a short but effective totalbody workout.
And remember, we want quality not quantity, always! Never compromise your form, ever! If your form starts to fail your done, got it?
Take your time, concentrate, focus and breathe through each and every exercise. You are strong, you are amazing, you have big energy! Youโve totally got this!
And because nothing makes a workout challenge more fun than getting a buddy to join you. Why not grab your BFF or a family member or your fave workmate and have them join you, power in numbers baby!
Donโt forget to come back and let me know how you did once youโre done. Either leave me a message in the comments below, or you can give me a shout on the Facebook page or tag me (@EmSwanston) on Twitter , or Instagram (@emsswanston) . I mean it, I wanna hear how you did!
Ok enough chit chat time to work โ
As always make sure you are nice an warm before you start your workout โ Run on the spot, do jumping jacks, jump rope, dance around your living room, anything to get you warm then itโs time to get serious.
Finish with a nice little cool down and stretch, maybe take a walk or something anything to help bring your heart rate down. Finish with a few of your fave stretches. Please donโt skip the stretch people, its like dessert for the body.
Now onto our bonus smoothie recipe . . .
How does a nice tall, light, fresh, creamy, dreamy, subtly sweet, perfectly spiced, vibrant, delicious ginger and pomegranate smoothie sound?
The combination of creamy, dreamy coconut yogurt with our slightly tart, subtly sweet pretty little pomegranate arils and that gentle hum of ginger is an absolute taste sensation!
And would you just look at that colour?! ๐๐๐
It really is simply divine, the perfect way to treat yoโ self while you refuel and re-energize that beautiful body of yours on this fabulous Friday.
Oh and I should probably mention that not only does our vibrant, delicious, pretty pink, powerhouse of a smoothie taste like an absolute dream but, it also happens to be vegan, dairy free, gluten free, sugar free, keto and paleo friendly โ so much to love I tell you โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ
