Weekend View

by Melissa on April 22, 2012

Hey gang!  Hope you’ve enjoyed your weekend.  It’s been a little dreary here, but I loved my weekend because Mario came up to visit!  Yay!  Only three more months of this long distance stuff. 

I’ve been working on my “vlogging” skills.  I did a vlog over a year ago and just didn’t feel it.  But I’m starting to think that using it as a tool to just check in, let ya know what’s going on, and the such is a great use of a vlog.  This is why I’ve been working on a series called “Sweaty Saturday”

Sweaty Saturday

Here’s last weekend’s Sweaty Saturday vlog and accompanying workout:

 

Tabata Workout

first 4 minutes

  • 20 seconds of star jumps, 10 seconds recovery — 4X
  • 20 seconds of switch lunges, 10 seconds of recovery — 4X

stretch for 1 minute

second 4 minutes

  • 20 seconds of shuffle, jump squat, 10 seconds of recovery — 8X

This is a quick workout, but definitely gets your heart pumping.  I loved it, and it was perfect for me just getting back into the workout scene after being sick.

 

Then, here’s this weekend’s Sweaty Saturday (or Sunday ;) ):

It was a four mile run and definitely was feeling the effects of a evening of over indulgence.  Letting go of your healthy habits can seem so tempting, but when its time to get your butt moving again, it is so much harder! 

Let me know what you think of the Sweaty Saturday check-ins!  I’m considering showing you some of my favorite exercises and even my favorite workout equipment.
