Who wants to kick their own butt??

I set a goal for myself this week to get 5 workouts in. I got 4 down, 1 to go... 

it's Sunday...

which means I want to be lazy... 

which also means today is my last chance to get my fifth workout in...


I was perfectly happy sitting on the couch sipping tea & relaxing until Tyler said he was going to go get a workout in. Guess my relaxation was over- couldn't use any excuses now. Whenever Tyler and I workout together we usually just start together with a warm up of some kind and abs, then we do our own separate workout. I thought I'd share with you what I did for my cardio today so you could try it out and see if it kicked your butt like it did mine!

  • Start on 1% incline for 1 minute
  • You then continue this same pattern all the way up to 15% incline
  • My speed was 4.5, but you could go up or down depending on what feels good for you.
  • After the treadmill, I then did 4 minutes of the rope machine on level 2 at a fast  pace 
*If you don't have access to a rope machine try a row machine as an alternative
