I think jumping lunges are making a run at burpees for the most brutal exercise on the planet.
In today’s Best Body Boot Camp lower body tabata workout, Tina paired jumping lunges with a lunge/squat combination exercise with only 10 seconds of rest between the two. During the workout I was cursing Tina, but afterward I wanted to give her a hug because the workout was tough yet doable and 10 times more entertaining than a basic leg workout.
My fellow boot bampers, did that combination kill you or what!?
(If you’re a Best Body Boot Camp fan or have been wanting to try it out, rumor has it that one of the Healthy Holidays Giveaway Week giveaways just maaaay include three free entries into the next round of BBBC!)
Breakfast
When I arrived home from the gym, I made myself a strawberry banana protein smoothie for breakfast.
In the mix:
- 1 frozen banana
- 1 cup frozen strawberries
- 1 spoonful cashew butter
- 1/2 cup honey Greek yogurt
- 1 scoop GNC vanilla cream protein powder
- Unsweetened vanilla almond milk
Slurp.

Question of the Morning
- What exercise do you think is the most brutal exercise on the planet?
While jumping lunges make me die a little inside, burpees still win the honor of the most horrific exercise in the whole wide world.

I want to participate 1) because you rave about the workouts and 2) I’m bored with my current routine at my gym. Could use some direction during these winter months!
There’s the yoga version of crunches that will have you crying blood ; it’s called the boat pose. I started doing it to tighten and tone my abs, but the first few days were pure, unadulterated hell. You have your legs half raised while lying down, along with your torso. The only part of you that touches the floor is your tailbone. Great workout, but the pain? Enough to give you a hernia!
