Hi Everyone!

Today’s workout will work your arms, abs, and butt. There are cardio bursts throughout the entire workout to amp up the fat/calorie burning of each round. It’s intense, so remember to always listen to your body.

I am joined by a very special guest during today’s workout. Lenny Boss, our website re-design guru (and my high school BFF), stepped out from behind the scenes and agreed to get on camera with me for a workout. Before the workout I gave him a few different options on workout format, and he chose the hardest variation. He wanted to push hard, and challenge his body in a new way, and he certainly did during today’s workout! When Lenny isn’t busy designing websites, he plays Volleyball competitively, and does heavy weight lifting at the gym. This was a completely new challenge for him.

As the workout progressed, Lenny alternated cardio bursts with rest breaks, and focused on getting in maximum repetitions during each 50-second interval round. That was a perfect demonstration of listening to your body. Lenny is a very fit person, but this was a whole new challenge. His body isn’t used to the cardiovascular aspects of this style of workout. He is interested in incorporating this style of workout into his routine and seeing how long it takes him to get through a full boot camp workout with no rest breaks.

It is a great reminder to focus on form and take breaks as needed. As long as you are pushing yourself, you are getting in a great workout!

I paired one round of this workout with a 5K race in the AM. Lenny paired one round of this workout with a shoulder workout at the gym. Have fun and let me know what you think in the comments below or on Facebook.
