Sometimes the gym is….busy, confusing, scary, far away, closed.
Always my home is…convenient, empty, comfortable, open.
At-Home workouts that work!
Tone It Up videos on YouTube are quick and fun workouts
{the arm sequences are my favorite!!!}
These are a great way to learn new moves and discover new combinations.
Most only require hand weights and a balance ball. Check out their website for some printables, but I prefer the videos- they are very inspiring and have a way of getting you to keep going.
So I will look like this after the workouts, right?
My go-to legs and abs girl is Tracy Anderson!
She has 3 videos on YouTube and they are booty kickers!
Her workouts {that are available on youtube} use body weight or very light hand weights. But seriously {pun} you have got to get on your knees and do her butt & thigh workout. It is 30 repetitions of 5 different movements that will have you shaking, sweating and cursing. Pure bliss.
Some nights I turn up my music and do workouts from Oxygen Magazine. I really like their workouts- they provide plenty of instructional language and pictures and none of that fancy technical language or insane positions.
Each magazine has at least 4 different sequences and I find that I get better the more often I do the routines.
The absence of videos means you can take a minute to perfect the position and move but not fall behind.
{plus unlike some fluffy magazines, these workouts yield results}
And if you just want a good ole ass kicking that makes you cry for your mother- pop in a Jillian Michael’s DVD. Sadly, {uhhh sooo sad….} she loves plyometrics between strength moves so me and my “jumper’s knee” haven’t been able to spend QT with Jillian.
