Don't be fooled by the small number of exercises or their seeming easiness. If you do them with a proper form you'll burn!
Bumpy in the Gym
So I survived my first gym workout in five months! It wasn't hard at all, although I found that I have lost some strength, probably more due to the hormonal changes and extra load on the body rather than due to muscle loss. But still I am extremely happy I went there and nailed it! … Continue reading Bumpy in the Gym
The Resistance Band Workout: Best of Pinterest
Now onto the post that I wanted to write yesterday but decided to start with a catch up instead. Since being so 'busy' (read sick with nausea) over the past few months I had to completely ditch the gym and do gentle yoga instead. It was a rather sad change for me as I really … Continue reading The Resistance Band Workout: Best of Pinterest
Move of the day: Sliding Lunges
Most of us, regular exercisers, know that the benefits of lunges are irreplaceable if you want to tone your glutes and thighs. Lunges are capable of activating the gluteus maximus - the biggest gluteal muscle that, unfortunately, doesn't respond that well to squats. Whether you do bodyweight lunges, or weighted ones, the choice is broad … Continue reading Move of the day: Sliding Lunges
Bodyweight Home Workout No. 3
Turns out the third and final workout I have planned for the weekend wasn't meant to be. No point to go into details, or I'll start complaining, which I am not supposed to do. So far, today I haven't complained nor judged even once. That's a good thing! Let's hope it will last longer than … Continue reading Bodyweight Home Workout No. 3
Bodyweight Home Workout No. 2 – 6/5: Cardio + Core
The first workout that I've posted yesterday is done. Sometimes these short bodyweight workouts are so invigorating! And it feels good to be done just in 10 to 15 minutes, when you don't have a whole day to work out. It's also good to warm up a little, because where I am now, at my … Continue reading Bodyweight Home Workout No. 2 – 6/5: Cardio + Core
Bodyweight Home Workout No. 1 – Circuits
I won't lie a bit if I say that I've forgotten lately how a fast-paced bodyweight workout with no equipment at all feels. It's been over a year since I did my last absolutely equipment-free workout and I don't even remember what it was. But I found out today that on the 1st of April … Continue reading Bodyweight Home Workout No. 1 – Circuits
10 Minute Lower Body Blast workout
If we're staying at home on weekends, I love going to the gym Saturday and Friday mornings. They are usually quiet and everything I need is there available. But I finish all my splits by Sunday, and I hate to waste this last day of the week resting. Since I do minimum to no cardio … Continue reading 10 Minute Lower Body Blast workout
Pure Sweat pre-Christmas Workout
It's hard for me to think of this workout as the last workout until Christmas. Since the gym membership happened to me, I've been spending good five days in gym training hard every part of my body and also doing 1 cardio day a week. The results are amazing even after 2 months of training. … Continue reading Pure Sweat pre-Christmas Workout
Best exercise for your butt
Ok, the title is a bit wrong, because it is very hard to label one exercise or another as the best - they are all different, they all work different muscles in different ways, and some are more effective than then the others, that's the reality. When it comes to working the butt out, ladies … Continue reading Best exercise for your butt
