Today’s…

workout of the day, we are going to be doing a 45 minute cardio workout with abs. 

Cardio…

To start off cardio we are going to be doing a 1.5 mile run. For the first mile, I can at my normal pace. The last .5 mile, I increased the speed and also increased the incline to make it more challenging. I would encourage you to do the same thing so you can the most out of this workout. Once I was done on the treadmill I moved on to the stairmaster. I was on the stairmaster for 5 minutes at a high intensity level. I ended cardio by doing the bike for 8 minutes. This was a good way to cool down my legs while still getting my heart rate up. 

Abs…

I started off doing 2 sets of 20 reps of leg raises. Then I grabbed a 45 lb weight and did weighted toe touches for 4 sets of 15 reps, weighted oblique dips for 4 sets at 10 reps (10 each side), and then ended it all with 3 rounds of 1 minute planks. This is a pretty tough ab routine, especially if you isolate those ab muscles. Push yourself here! 

Stretch

To end the workout, stretch out those muscles to prevent soreness and injury. Recovery is the most important part after working out, so make sure to take care of your body and it will take care of you. Stretch it out for a total of 10 – 15 minutes depending on how much time you have.
