• 30 lunges @ mid-calf depth 


• be sure back knee dips into water w/each lunge!


• 30 v-ups


• 15 push ups


• run 1/2 mile in soft sand {back to where you started!}


• 30 lunges @ mid-calf depth


• 30 v-ups

• go until you can't complete another single one!!

Good job!! Now go for a dip, enjoy God's amazing creation, and then maybe treat yourself to a delish and refreshing green fruit smoothie!! YUM!!

Get Fit ...w/a deck of cards!!

So earlier I shared a cardgame that doubles as a workout...to be played with friends!  This one is just to give you a fast-paced workout using nothing but your bodyweight when you need to squeeze in some quick exercise @ home or on the road!  Super effective and SUPER easy!

Write down the same list of exercises from yesterday.  Or, if you don't like those, choose your own!  Just be sure to involve all of the major muscles in your body so that you get a great full-body workout!  Flip one card @ a time and go down your list.  Do the number of reps on the card (face-cards & Aces are 15!)  You can go through the full deck once OR set a time and continue until that time is up. 

K, now go find a deck of cards and get your sweat on!!

WORKOUT ON THE GO!

Are you traveling this weekend? Instead of using that as an excuse to pass on your workout regimen, just try these moves (consecutively without resting!) first thing in the morning or before hopping into bed!

• High knees in place for 45 seconds
• 15 push ups (or knee push ups)
• 20 jump squats
• 25 sit ups 

                 {repeat this mini set 3x}

Done? Awesome...now get this: Not only will you burn calories during this workout, but you'll kick up your metabolism for up to an hour after you're finished! Cool?  I thought so too...

Happy travels!
Vacations can be good for the body as WELL as the soul!
