IT'S THE WEEKEND!!!

IT'S THE WEEKEND!!!
I don't know about you guys but I get pumped for the weekend...especially when it is a 3 day weekend. However I also get worried that with one extra day off work that is one extra day that I could get off track from my routine. Because let's be honest...when you stick to a rountine it is easier to be successful and consistent at least for fatloss and maintaining a healthy lifestyle. That is why I am posting this extra easy to do at home workout and good news no weights or equipment needed! :) 
So before you go and take full advantage of a cheat meal or indulge a little extra this weekend with the Memorial Day cookouts try to get an extra workout in this weekend. And if you are like me and completing T25 you have the weekends off so this is a nice quick workout to help keep your metabolism up if indulging a little extra this weekend. 
THE WORKOUT: Do either 5 sets of 15. I want to you push yourself for as  long as you can and then rest when needed but only rest until you can. This will allow for the workout to be a metabolic style workout and allow for that added benefit of the workout to keep working for you even after you are done. 

Burpee, push-up
Squat, front kick (alternating legs)
push up jacks (2 to the right then to the left)
walking lunges (right then left counts as 1)
(Repeat)

FOOD TIP: be sure if you are going to a cookout that you eat a healthy breakfast and drink lots of water. Drinking water will help you to stay full but also prepare your body for any cheat foods that you may eat at the cookout. Also don't hang out at the food table. That used to be my spot but now it is best if you can walk away and not do continuos snacking! 

I hope you all have a great 3 day weekend and get your pre-cookout workout in!! Happy Memorial Day Weekend!! :)
