Get Ready to Get Sweaty-GISG Tabata Circuits +...
After sleeping off last night’s Italian feast and wine, I decided to burn off some of the excess! It took me until 3 pm to work up the motivation to actually get my workout started, but like they always say—you never regret a workout! I killed it with my GISG Tabata circuits and then soaked up some 80 degree sunshine while I did running intervals outside. My legs are still...

Get Ready to Get Sweaty-GISG Tabata Circuits
Ahhh good old Tabata circuits. My poor quads are aching from all of the jump squats. Though not required, I did 35 min of extra HIIT on the elliptical to round out the morning workout.

Get Ready to Get Sweaty-GISG Chest/Back + HIIT
Thank god for Spring Break! I was able to sleep in until 7…take my time waking up…and knock out a 75 minute workout to kick off the week. Chest is definitely my least favorite to lift…back and shoulders are tied for first. Today, I did the perfect combination of chest/back with a little booty mixed in for good measure! Ended the workout with 30 min of HIIT…sweat dripping...

To which weight I should get? and do you have any exercise routines you recommend me? or something motivational? :) thank you so much !

Get Ready to Get Sweaty-GISG Shoulders/Arms +...
Today is what I refer to as my “tank top training” day…that’s shoulders…biceps…and triceps. My favorite body parts to work are definitely shoulders and back. Today’s GISG workout was probably my favorite arm day so far…single leg high pulls with a kettle bell…a new love of skull crushers using my barbell…and of course, my favorite...

steffyt asked: Thanks! I am definitely going to try out the GISG :) Do you need equipment/a lot of space? Also, how do you do your HIIT routine? Do you take a class at a gym or do it at home? Sorry for all the questions! lol i always check your blog for a little inspiration :)

Get Ready to Get Sweaty-GISG Circuit Training
I was SO tired last night….and decided to TRY to sleep without any sleeping meds…BIG FAT FAIL FAIL FAIL. I tossed and turned all night and ended up sleeping 15 minutes past my alarm. But, I got my ass up and did my GISG workout and managed to squeeze in 15 min of cardio instead of my usual 30. No worries though, I will be making up those 15 minutes tomorrow morning :)
