20 Minute Elliptical Workout

January 9, 2013 by Julie 78 Comments

Today is day three of Tina’s Best Body Boot Camp! I am skipping the cardio workouts prescribed for Tuesdays and Thursdays in favor of running on my own because I have a half marathon on the horizon next Saturday, but my Monday, Wednesday and Friday workouts are all about boot camp!

Today’s boot camp workout began with an interval workout on the elliptical.

20 Minute Elliptical Workout

After 20 minutes, I was nice and warm and ready to head into the weight room to complete the core circuit workout that was on the agenda for today. It was a good one and the scorpion exercise absolutely kicked my butt!

Check it out:

The Scorpion

 

Holy burning abs!

Breakfast

Breakfast this morning was rather basic.

scrambled eggs 012

Scrambled eggs + Chicken sausage + Banana

scrambled eggs 013

It did the trick!

Time to work on a freelance proposal before heading out to a Taste of Ocala committee meeting at lunchtime! See ya later!

P.S. The Fashion page was updated yesterday.

    Hi Julie, I think the model in the scorpion video is Katrina from Tone It Up, they are my favorite trainers ever, if you’ve never tried their workout videos I highly recommend them.

    I’m doing BBB as well and actually did Wednesday’s on Tuesday. I’m not sure which was worse, the Scorpion or the plank toe-taps! I was a jiggly mess by the end and I have been VERY aware of my obliques since then (as in OUCH!). Call me crazy, but I’m lovin’ it!

    Thank you so much for introducing me to Tina’s Best Body Bootcamp! I signed up after I attempted to get personal training at my gym until I saw the price tag ($500 for 5 sessions?!?!). Crazy! I am LOVING it so far and incredibly thankful for the flexibility it brings. I hurt my foot this week so I’ve been unable to attend my usual bootcamp-style classes but I’ve been following her plan! So perfect! And those scorpions, WOW! I was very nearly cursing as I was doing them but so proud I could!

    Anyways just wanted to thank you! I also tend to wake up and decide what to eat for breakfast based off of what you or Tina from Carrots ‘N Cake had! 🙂
