Hi Everyone!

It’s workout time again! I have a brand new Core and Buns Workout for you. It’s another standing workout, so it’s easy to do anywhere. I use a chair for balance, but you can also use a wall or other sturdy surface.

You will really feel the burn with this workout routine. The small movements, really activate your muscles. If you want to increase the intensity even further you can wear a weighted vest, or add ankle weights or resistance bands to the exercises. I didn’t use any extra equipment, and I found the workout challenging. When you do the workout leave a comment and let me know if you modified and how you feel. Your input helps me to keep the workouts challenging, but do-able.

Technical Difficulties and the unexpected benefit: I actually “filmed” this workout earlier today, but for some reason my camera stopped recording just over a minute into the workout. I didn’t realize there was anything wrong until after I finished the workout. I teach my yoga course on Monday & Friday, so I taught yoga and then re-filmed round two of today’s workout. So thanks to my technical difficulties I got in two rounds of today’s workout!

After the first round of today’s workout.

My husband says that I can be painfully good at finding silver linings, but on challenging days like today, I find it far more useful to dwell on the positives than focus on the negatives. I was having one of those days when nothing seems to be going smoothly. All of the little things that went wrong could have easily become a bad day. I lost my key and couldn’t get into my office, Maverick sobbed when I left him to go teach my class, my video didn’t record, a key popped off of the keyboard to my husband’s tablet and I thought I lost it….nothing significant or life changing (except Maverick crying, that breaks my heart). Sometimes you can choose to change your attitude and focus.

A lot of what you experience has less to do with what happens, and more to do with how you respond to it.

I hope you enjoy today’s workout! It is part of my #BFFitFall Workout Challenge. You can find the full list of workouts under the Weekly Workouts tab on my website.
