16 Minutes of Tabata + 10 Minutes of Stretching
Print Workout Here
Buy Mini Bands Here OR Buy Ball Here

Today I wanted to do a mix of strength to cardio, and then wrap it up with a NICE BIG STRETCH.

What you need: Set of weights, mini band and ball if you have one (could use a pillow)

Warm-up: Included in your warm-up today by not using weights.

Workout: We are doing each exercise for 20 seconds on, and 10 seconds of rest, 8 times through.

  • Mini Band Squats w/ Weights:Please complete the first 4 sets without weights so you can warm your body up, then grab heavier weights (10-25lbs each) and do the last 4 sets with them to up the ante. Start with the mini band around your upper thighs, your feet separated just a little further than hip distance apart, and your knees pointing forward as you come down.
    Modification to make it more intense…..do jump squats!  I’m just not personally ready yet.
  • Mini Band Donkey Kicks: With the mini band around the arches of your feet, start in a table top position, keep the abs engaged, and then rock that butt by kicking your leg out and up to hip level (or a little higher) to really work your gluts. This is a crazy amount of core too, so make sure you keep the abs tight and your hips leve.
  • Ball Floor Slams (could use a pillow): Really watch your form here so you’re getting the full benefit and you don’t hurt yourself. This is a crazy amount of cardio, but if done properly, it also works your arms, core and legs too.
    Please watch the video for details on this one.
  • Bridges + Pronated V-Pushes:With the band around your thighs and your feet hip distance apart and knees bent, thrust your hips up into a bridge position and while at the top of your reach, just push your knees out a tiny bit.After 20 seconds, you’re going to work the abs by taking your hands under your bum, and then your legs out on a 45 degree level.  From here you’re going open and close your legs slow and controlled to work the lower abs and inner and outer thighs at the same time ;)
    Please watch the video for this as well. 

Cool-down:10 minutes of stretching and cooling off this time!

Make today badass,
