ENABLING YOUR PASSION FOR HEALTHY LIVING

A Tabata Workout On My Own

Finally uploaded the Surfset video! Check it out down below and make sure you are a subscriber on YouTube.

Last night, I went to the gym and was very happy with my productive routine. After running the half mile to the gym, I hopped on the elliptical for 15 minutes.  I usually do the strength program on the Arc trainer which is 45 seconds of medium resistance, 15 seconds of hard resistance, repeat. Then I went over to the weights and did the following workout, using my own videos for inspiration:

  • 1. Tabata Interval with Kettle bell swings
  • 2a. 1 minute Hamstring curls w/ Physio Ball
  • 2b. 1 minute Ball Pass w/ Physio Ball (repeat 2a & 2b for 3 sets)

  • 3. Tabata Interval: Mountain Climbers, Burpee (squat thrust), bicycle crunches, push ups
  • 4. Tabata Interval: Forward Lunge with Medicine Ball Rotation on the Left, Forward Lunge with Med Ball on the Right, V twist with Med Ball, Crunch with Med Ball
  • 5. Bicep Curl with Shoulder Press (10 lb weights for 15 reps, 3 sets)
  • 6. Plank for 1 minute (repeat 2x).

When I got home, friends Meghan and Elizabeth came over for a yummy dinner. I filmed a video earlier in the day and made the most delicious dessert. I knew I needed friends over to help eat the creation so I didn’t eat it all! I also made my Quinoa and Butternut Squash Faux Risotto. Both were a hit.

I’ll upload the desert recipe when I have the video edited but here is a sneak peek at how yummy it looks! Just in case you were curious, it’s healthy and jam-packed with nutrients, protein and fiber! Oh yes, and it’s gluten-free (easily made vegan to boot!).

I know some bloggers freeze their creations so that they last, but I feel like more often than not, I end up eating most my experiments. When you work from home, there are no coworkers to share with either! What is your solution to baking experiments?
