…so I do it at home
I usually stick with Michelle Briehler's rebounder workouts but this one intrigued me so I decided to give it a try. It was tougher than I expected! You wear ankle and wrist weights to increase the intensity and it worked! The intensity built as the workout progressed so that by the end I was wearing … Continue reading 30 MIN All Standing Cardio NO JUMPING with Wrist Weights & Ankle Weights
This is a workout from Caroline Girvan‘s CGX app. For more info on Caroline’s App, see the CGX App page. This is a short little add on/finisher to give your lower body/glutes some additional work. Because the intervals are so long (and the recoveries so short) I expected it to be harder than it was. It did … Continue reading CGX: Ankle Weight Workout
40 Min Advanced Trampoline Cardio Core is an intense rebounder workout from Michelle Briehler. It's done in circuits so you kind of get breaks when alternating between cardio circuits and core circuits but they are both intense in their own way. According to my Apple Watch I burned 344 calories and spent 9 minutes total … Continue reading 𝟰𝟬 𝗠𝗜𝗡 𝗔𝗱𝘃𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗱 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗺𝗽𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝗱𝗶𝗼 𝗖𝗼𝗿𝗲 // 𝗔𝗱𝘃𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗱 𝗦𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 // 𝗗𝗮𝘆 𝟲
No Repeats Abs & Booty + Full Body Mobility is Day 40 in Heather Robertson‘s 12 Week 4.0 program. Another recovery day workout that is not much of a recovery! At least not the first half! This is actually the last mobility workout in the HR12Week 4.0 program. The rest of the "recovery" level workouts … Continue reading Day 40: NO REPEATS Abs & Booty + Full Body Mobility / HR12WEEK 4.0
Glutes & Thighs is Day 17 in Heather Robertson's 12 Week 4.0 program. This is another enjoyable and effective lower body strength workout. I expected the ankle weight circuit to be harder than it was, but I think it seemed easier because the standing exercises are not as hard as the mat based exercises. Who … Continue reading Day 17: Glutes & Thighs (Activation & Strength) / HR12WEEK 4.0
Intermediate Trampoline Cardio Workout | with Abs & Deep Stretch is a great workout from Michelle Briehler and just what I need this morning. Though the title says it is intermediate level, Michelle even says in the course of the workout that it is more of an advanced/intermediate level workout. It was tough! I didn't … Continue reading Intermediate Trampoline Cardio Workout | with Abs & Deep Stretch
10 Min Abs & Booty is a short add on workout from Heather Robertson and it is tough. Of course, how tough it is depends on the weight of your ankle weights. I am impressed that Heather is using 5 pound ankle weights on each ankle. In her longer lower body workout Booty & Thigh … Continue reading 10MIN Abs & Booty (Ankle Weights Workout)
Booty & Thigh Toning (Ankle Weights Workout) is Day 6 in Heather Robertson's 12 Week 4.0 program. This was a different way to work my lower body. Not that I haven't done mat work before but usually as a finisher or in conjunction with weighted strength work. The only resistance used in this entire workout … Continue reading Day 7: Booty & Thigh Toning (Ankle Weights Workout) / HR12WEEK 4.0
This is a workout from Caroline Girvan‘s CGX app. For more info on Caroline’s App, see the CGX App page. This is an entirely mat based glute workout using a variety of equipment--a barbell or heavy dumbbell, a glute band and ankle weights. And as the title indicates, everything is done on the mat. This workout fried … Continue reading CGXmas Day 3: Glutes on the Mat
This is a workout from Caroline Girvan‘s CGX app. For more info on Caroline’s App, see the CGX App page. I used this as a finisher after completing a lower body dumbbell strength workout and it definitely finished me off! Though this is lower body mat work, Caroline does it all on a padded bench. Kneeling on … Continue reading CGXmas Day 11: Ankle Weights
