Some thoughts and discussions from me.
Metabolic Conditioning Workouts
Good morning, friends.
Still not ready to post about what’s been going on, just because there hasn’t been much progress since yesterday morning. But I’m hoping to be back tomorrow with a positive update for you all, and be back to my regular blogging self. I know it’s super annoying when bloggers are vague like this, but I just wanted to give an explanation why my posts are so different this week.
I actually wasn’t planning on blogging at all today, but found myself with a little free time yesterday, and instead of thinking, I decided I might as well share this metabolic conditioning workout that I posted to Instagram a couple weeks ago.
It only took about 25 minutes (plus a 10 minute dynamic warm up,) and really flew by!
Here’s a quick video of the moves:

Depending on how many times I hike that week, I usually do 1-2 metabolic workouts per week, along with my three lifting workouts. On the days I don’t work out (usually two-three) I always stretch and foam roll for about 20 minutes. It helps that I work in a gym, because then I can just go use the foam roller in between clients. Though this week and last, all workouts have been few and far between.

plyo lunges (the plyometric I love to hate!)
stability ball prone toe taps
If you plan on doing it, let me know if you have any questions!
What’s a plyometric move you love to hate?
This looks like a great workout! I love functional, plyometric workouts like these. I hope things start getting better for ya soon!

This looks like an awesome workout! I’ve been working on incorporating more dynamic movements into my workouts lately, so this looks like an amazing option. Although I’m still terrified of attempting box jumps – I’ll get over that eventually.
And love to hate? Burpees. But doesn’t everyone? 😉

great workout! I love circuits like this 🙂 they keep it so fun and make the workout FLY BY. I totally suck at putting them together on my own though!

I’m all about loving/hating burpees.
Sending some good vibes your way, btw…

Jumping lunges and squat jumps kill me every time, but I secretly kind of love it. 😉 Looks like a fun workout!
Still thinking of you my friend… xoxo

Random Q – if you don’t have a kettlebell at home, is there a good swap for that move?
