Helllooooooo!

Hope you are having a great week so far!

Can’t believe we’re half way through January already?!

Have you started working on your New Year Resolutions yet?

If you need a little motivation to help get you started, check out my last post here!

Anyways, for those of you who don’t know…I am one of those that give great advise, BUUTTT….I don’t always follow it. It actually helped me a lot to write my goals like I suggested in my previous post, so much that I decided to do the same for this blog post.

I am going to show you a Simple Morning Work-Out Routine to get you up & going before you start your day!

I’m hoping this will help me get it together & actually start working towards my goals!

With the schedule that I have…I will “technically” have to be up by 5:45AM to start exercising. If you don’t have to get up that early…please don’t! (save yourself!) But if you do, then it’s best to get started bright and early.

Now to the good stuff!

STRETCH

No matter what type of exercises you are doing….I always recommend you start off by stretching! These are a couple of positions I like to start off with. I hold each position for about 30 seconds. Toe touches are also good! I like to warm up for about 5 minutes!

WARM-UPS

Jumping jacks are a good Go-To exercise to help get your heart pumping after stretching, I do about 20-30. If you have a work out machine, like a treadmill or a bicycle one…those are good too!

ARMS

As a matter of fact, I bought some dumbbells last year before I got pregnant and was working out frequently & then I just stopped. I loved them! They’re perfect for beginners like me. I do 20 of each. 20 bicep curls, 20 side shoulder raises & 20 overhead shoulder press. For those of you that want to hit the workout a little harder, you can use the dumbbells listed below!

ABS

For your abs, I normally do crunches, bicycle crunches, planks and high knees. Same as above, 20 of each.

GLUTES

I also do a couple of exercise for my glutes, 20 of each! Walking lunges, glute bridges, squats and side leg raises (Before you ask…yesss, 20 on each leg).

Now remember, this is supposed to be a 15 minute work out routine! If it seems too much, you can always cut down the exercises to 10 of each, or you can do fewer exercises from each category.

Good luck! & wish me luck as well on this journey! WE CAN DO IT!
