Love this quick, INTENSE, HIIT routine. I'm a working mom...agency life... Have you ever seen Mad Men? That's about right, minus all the whiskey, extramarital affairs, and sexism (well, usually...) We work on beer budgets these days.
Anyway, point is this chick's got ZERO time to workout. But you better bet that's not an excuse I let myself get away with any longer. I look for just once chance a day to workout. Sometimes it's the 30 minutes while dinner is in the over. Today, it was nap time. And don't think I have one of those sweet children that takes a nice, long 2-hour nap every afternoon. Nope. She's wide open. All. Day. Long. Gets a sweet little catnap in and - BOOM! - right back at it.
So with today's 30 minute nap I had just enough time to squeeze in this doozy...and boy was it ever. (Don't tell anyone, but i cheated it. It was too hard. So, go ahead, you try it. Let me know how you do.) I'm sure you can do. On a good day, I could have. Today, was not a good day.
But hey, any workout is better than no workout! #RealLife
28-Minute Nap Time HIIT
The Rules:
- 40 seconds on, 20 seconds off.
- 2 minute rest between rounds (at which point you should CHUG water)
- Complete 3 rounds. (I only did 2... I see you! Shut those judge-y eyes while I do some math for you. 2 > 0. XOXO!)
- Need to take a break. Go ahead. No judge-y eyes here. I also don't give out medals for effort, but who cares. You're a big kid. You'll survive.
The Deets:
- Squat Press
- Jump Squats
- Beach Babe Push-ups (alternate each knee touching floor as you go down. You know...the the knee up beach babe pose, but facing down...)
- Bridge Press
- Renegade Rows (I cheated with my knees down. Some kill deadlifts and oblique work the other day made all core work today nearly impossible. Here's some more math for you. Cheating > Nothing)
- Heismans
- Bench Dips
- Russian Twists
