It’s the final week of Best Body Boot Camp! Time to go out with a bang!
I warmed up with 10 minutes on the stair master before completing today’s power circuit workout. I think today’s workout is one of my favorite workouts from the whole program because it really keeps things moving with super-short 20 second bursts of cardio. The cardio bursts aren’t long enough to really kill me, but they get my heart rate up and leave me nice and sweaty, so I’m a fan!
Breakfast
When I arrived home from the gym, it was smoothie time!
Into the blender went:
- 1 scoop chocolate protein powder
- 1 tbsp. cocoa powder
- 1 frozen banana
- 1 cup frozen strawberries
- Big spoonful peanut butter
- 1 handful fresh spinach
- Enough almond milk to get everything moving
The smoothie was nice and thick and the consistency reminded me a lot of my “ice cream” smoothie. A winner! And speaking of winners…

Question of the Morning
- Are you currently following a workout program of some sort?
- Where do you get the inspiration for your workouts?
I am currently following BBBC, but I get a lot of my workout inspiration from Pinterest, magazines, other bloggers, NASM, Ryan and previous group exercise classes.

Happy Monday.
That smoothie looks fantastic! Would of been a perfect breakfast for me after the Monday morning Team Bootcamp. Plan to try it tomorrow. The recipe shown, is that 1 serving or 2?
Just finished using Hal Higdon’s Novice 2 training plan for finishing my first half marathon! I am currently plan-less (is that a word?) because I’m letting my body tell me when it’s ready for some cross-training! I get a lot of my inspiration for workouts from fitness blogs and Pinterest 😀
I just stumbled across your blog last week and it has now become a daily read for me. I’ve enjoyed a couple of your recipes so far and I’m about to try your smoothie recipes as well. Keep the smoothie recipes coming!!!
I mainly get my inspiration or workouts themselves from Pinterest or bloggers. I didn’t realize it then, but life was so sad before Pinterest.
Most of my inspiration for my workouts comes from Pinterest and other bloggers.
That smoothie sounds great!
What kind of chocolate protein powder do you like best? I haven’t found one I’m in love with yet!
I get workout inspiration from BBBC and Pinterest, as well as YouTube and my personal trainer. And YOU! You put together some fun workouts, thanks for sharing them!!
That smoothie looks so chocolatey…yum!
