Since August is almost over (how did that happen!?), it’s time for your August Workout Playlist + a super sweaty, super challenging tabata workout to go with it!
I posted this tabata workout on Instagram stories on Saturday morning and was flooded with requests to turn it into a blog post with a graphic…so here we are!
This was my first post-baby HIIT workout and it felt great. I owe y’all a postpartum fitness post. It’s been all over the place. There was one week I ran four times…then I didn’t run again for almost two weeks. I’ve made it to the gym a couple of times…and then there was this driveway workout. Most days I just walk.
That’s another post for another day. Let’s get to the details of this workout. The best thing about it is that you can do it at home with no equipment and it’s quick…just 24 minutes total of work but you will probably want to rest a minute between rounds. Even still…you’ll be done in 30 minutes!
I am REALLY appreciating the home workouts as an option with baby on board! 🙂
SUMMER TABATA WORKOUT
Here’s a post I wrote about tabata training 101. Please start there if you are not familiar with tabata intervals. It’s very helpful!
Each tabata interval has eight rounds of 20 seconds of work. You rest 10 seconds between each round. Each interval will take you four minutes total. You will alternate between the two exercises listed for each interval in this workout, so you’ll do each exercise a total of four times.
If jumping is not your thing, this workout CAN be modified to take the jumping out! It will still be very challenging.
SUMMER TABATA WORKOUT VIDEO
This is not a high tech video because I pulled it from what I filmed for IG stories but it gets the job done to demo the movements!
AUGUST WORKOUT PLAYLIST
I decided to go back into the archives for this playlist. There’s a little bit of everything!
Do you workout at home? If so, is it because you like to or because it’s what works with your schedule/current life demands?
Hello my friends! I hope this finds you enjoying all of the beauty and fresh starts that spring has to offer (and not too much of the sneezing and wheezing). Life has been good over here. I’m very much enjoying the longer days, cool mornings and warm afternoons and gorgeous blooms. Spring is so lovely [...]
I cannot believe it’s been nearly a month since I completed Moab Run The Rocks! It’s a three-day stage race in Moab, Utah that’s put on by the same race organization, TransRockies Rockies Race Series, that I did my six-day Colorado race with back in August. TransRockies truly excels when it comes to planning and [...]
I recently spent four nights in Moab, Utah for a three-day stage trail race called Moab Run The Rocks. Since returning home, I’ve been telling everyone I talk to about my trip that they must put Moab on their travel bucket list (43 miles of running not required to have an amazing visit to Moab [...]
Friends! We have so much catching up to do. The last few weeks have been full of fun adventures that have taken me from skiing the mountains of West Virginia to running the red rocks of Utah. Let’s begin with a ski weekend at Winterplace Ski Resort in West Virginia. Finn and I first visited [...]
This potato and broccoli cheddar soup is a warm hug in a bowl. It’s a mash up of potato soup meets broccoli cheddar soup, and makes for a creamy, hearty and cheesy bowl that has just enough broccoli in it to make you feel like you’re getting your veggies in for a complete meal. POTATO [...]
Hello my friends. We are overdue a catch up. It’s a cold, rainy Sunday so the perfect time to sit down and share what’s been going on in my corner of the world. The short answer is…A LOT! ON THE WORK FRONT On the work front, January in the fitness industry is no joke and [...]
I am sitting down to write this post with teary eyes and a heavy heart. On New Year’s Eve we said goodbye to Zoey. It seems like only yesterday that I brought this fluffy nugget home. Many of you have been here with me since Zoey was a puppy. She was the sweetest little sister [...]
