Super-set workout I love

I have found my new favorite super-sets. I actually made it up as I went because I want an awesome workout daily! I typically have about 30-45 minutes a day that I can workout and I want to get muscle definition. Because I do not have a lot of time I put my workouts together and boy does it burn! I absolutely Love Love Love it! The number one reason people tell me they cannot lose weight is because they do not have the time. I feel ya, but honestly, we all have time. We just have to make it. So I really want to encourage you to start somewhere and go workout. If you do not have a gym membership (another huge excuse I hear) then buy dumbbells from Target or Walmart and workout at home. I did not have a gym membership for 4 years and finally have one again. Before the gym membership I had 2-10lb dumbbells that I worked with. It is not a lot but it worked for me. I was able to lose my baby weight the first time with at home workouts, walking/jogging outside and eating better. If you really want it you have to believe in yourself and do it! At first it sucks but honestly it is the best thing you can do for yourself. Get healthy, get fit. Ok so on to one of my amazing workouts….I have a few but I will share the one I did today and post the rest later. Now remember these are super-sets not one set, rest, one set, rest. No resting involved. I rest my muscle when I workout a different muscle.

Back workout Superset

Bent over row with palms facing your body, return to starting position

Bent over row with palms facing each other, return to starting position

Bent over reverse fly, return to starting position

Repeat for a total of 12

Rest: Just kidding! Do 20 lunges each side

Rest: Nope

Do the Top super-set again

Do 20 more lunges each side

Do the super-sets again

Do 20 more lunges each side.

Done!

On to the next workout, abs and legs. Do these workouts all in one set, this time you rest for one minute in between.Remember super-sets, its a better burn and a faster way to get all your muscles worked.

Grab a Mat:

30 crunches

30 side crunches-each side

50 bicycle crunches

20 push ups

20 side plank dips/lifts

50 outside leg lifts

50 inside leg lifts

20 side plank dips/lifts on opposite side

50 outside leg lifts on opposite side

50 inside leg lifts on opposite side

Rest one minute and repeat for a total of 3 sets

Remember to stretch, I am not very good at the whole stretching thing. I typically skip it if I do not have time, but most people need it.

I really hope you try this workout and if you have any questions just ask!

I have been doing this workout for two weeks now. Between this workout and the other ones I will post I have been seeing results faster! I am 8 months postpartum and have recovered faster this time around and am now at the toning and improving my body part. I just started working out with heavier weights and see a big difference. I am not skinny and not super toned just yet 😜 I absolutely love working out and love to eat. So finding a balance has worked for me. I posted two picture of me from this morning. 

1. My tank top is to big on me now, huge. 

2. I am not toned as you can tell but my muscles are getting bigger, thankfully! 

3. Don’t buy targets workout clothes with drawstrings. It literally bunches up around your waste and make me feel like I have a bigger stomach 😟

4. Trying to take a “flexing” picture after your workout leads to a blurry picture hahaha 
Live fit
