These workouts are designed to be done in the order they’re listed. For each workout, it starts out simple and is added to each week. The idea behind this is to start small to make it easy to begin the habit of exercising or at least moving, daily.
The first video is a quick warmup I have made for you. I recommend doing this before the start of each workout. The great part about these workouts is that they are very quick which is great to fit in with a busy life. You can choose to do them in the morning, the evening or any other time that works for you. This is about working in with your life.
I have also provided two yoga videos to include each week if you wish. These are great for days when you’re not up to a high intensity workout and also to help tone and lengthen your muscles whilst focusing inwardly. They give your body a rest whilst still moving in a way that feels good.
**Of note: (ES) denotes each side.
SPECIAL NOTE:
You are NOT defined by being a perfect size 8 or having a booty like Beyonce. The number on the scale does not define who you are as a person. Start a new form of measurement…
The Happiness Scale
Each day before and after your workout, ask yourself:
“How happy do I feel right now?”
Give yourself a score out of 10. If it is less than 10, think about what would bring that number up. I bet it won’t be to fit into your old jeans. It will more likely to be something like – to have more energy, to run around and have fun with your children, to wake up with a smile on your face. You already have all the happiness you need inside of you. You just need to access it. Do what makes you feel good, be grateful for what you have already and love with all your heart. Now, go have fun with these workouts!
