Here is an awesome workout that can be done in 9, 18 or 27 minutes depending on how much time you have. Short on time, just do it once. Otherwise repeat it 1 or 2 more times. Push yourself and make each minute count!
So I have a great post in the making about goal setting. But instead of staying up late tonight to finish it I am going to wait until Mondy to post it and go to bed. It has been a long day and I think I picked up the stomach bug my kids just got over. Lucky me!:) Or maybe I am just sleep deprived from naughty children who don't like to sleep. Whatever the reason I am admitting defeat and going to bed.
So to hold you over I have a great Cardio Ab YouTube video you can do this weekend and a yummy smoothie recipe for you to try. I made it just the other day and it was delicious.
Gold Smoothie
(about 300 calories)
1/2-1 cup carrots (microwave just enough to soften them)
1 clementine orange (the little cutie kind is what I used)
1/2 cup canned pineapple (It is yummy if you freeze it before hand but you don't have to)
1/2 almond milk
1/2 cup water
2 scoops protein powder(the kind I use has 90 calories in 2 scoops)*
1 tsp honey
Throw it all in the blender and enjoy!
*If you don't have protein powder you could throw in some greek yogurt or cottage cheese or a banana. You may need some extra honey if you use the greek yogurt or cottage cheese. Or you could sweeten with Stevia.
Or turn this into a green smoothie by throwing in a handful of spinach.
Hope you have a happy and healthy weekend!...It's my birthday so I just may have a little dessert to celebrate:)
This is a great workout for when you are short on time but still want to work hard. It is just under 23 minutes including the warm-up and cool-down. If you have more time this would be a good finish to a cardio session.
