Burpees & Booty Workout

By

I adore burpees. Love, love, love them. I feel like they are the most epic full-body workout (if done properly) with a snazzy bit of cardio for your heart health pleasure. See? I can make them sound so great.

I do not, however, love leg day. Truly, I can’t stand it. So I thought the best way for me to get in a good leg workout is to combine it with a lot of burpees.

Fair warning: This is an intermediate to advanced workout, so if you’re starting, I recommend you start with a more basic workout and learn proper form, get stronger and then tackle this beast. Try my 5 & Thrive series…it’s a week-long series of 5-minute workouts targeting different body parts each day. Linked below is Day 7, it has links to all five daily workouts.

CLICK HERE to try out 5 & Thrive.

The Workout:

There are 4 types of burpees and 4 leg exercises. Match up a burpee and a leg exercise, complete 20 reps of the burpee exercise and 50 reps of the leg exercise. Match up another burpee with another leg exercise and continue on until all four burpee and leg exercises are done.

You do not need to do these in order, switch up the order to do what feels “good” to you.

Want a challenge? Think 20 and 50 reps are too few? Okie dokie…I challenge you to 50 burpees and 100 reps of the leg exercise.

Enjoy! Let me know if you give this workout a try! I’d love to know how “burny” it was for you! Because my legs were screamin’ by the end! Good luck! You’re amazing.

Off you go!

Challenge Day: Lindsay Gee’s 1000 Rep Challenge

By

Welcome to the Fueled Life’s first ever fitness challenge! I wanted to kick things off with a fitness challenge because my entire life has involved fitness and I thought what better way to get the group moving than with a BUNCH of exercises of joy and power?!

Today’s challenge is my 1000 Rep Challenge.

Newbies…before you freak out…HANG ON…

If you’re new to fitness or just getting back into it DO NOT FREAK OUT! If 50 reps of each of these exercises is freaking you out…cut it in half. Your challenge is a 500 Rep Challenge. Okay?! Now, breathe.

The rest of you yahoos who have been active for awhile, get through the 1000 reps!

You can do them all at once and use this challenge as your workout today OR you can print off the graphic, break the exercises up throughout the day tick them off as you get them done. It’s totally up to you as to how you work your way through the challenge. But…do it!

This is a full-body challenge with upper body, lower body, core and cardio exercises included. Because I love you. I love you very much. I love you enough to kick your buttocks and get you moving. Muwah! Smoochie smooch.

Here’s your challenge, my lovelies:

Personally, I cannot wait to tackle this today. I’m motivated and wanting to crush it!

Oh…and if you’re going to a class (ahem…I love Hot Mama classes!), YES…you can count any reps you get done in class towards this challenge, of course! Woop!

Have fun! And be sure to join the Fueled Life with Lindsay Gee’s Challenge & Accountability group for support, inspiration and encouragement!
