Favourite Workouts

Heya!

For those that know me personally, you know I cannot function for long without the gym in my life...it keeps me sane. 

I want to share with you 2 of my favourite workouts that I have been loving lately. 

Treadmill Workout
0 - 3 minutes      Warm Up
3 - 5 minutes      Run at 6.0
5 - 6 minutes      Run at 8.5
Repeat minutes 3 - 6*
Cool Down

*I started out only repeating about 5 times and have since worked up to repeat this 3-minute cycle 11 times. 

This is a challenging workout and one that can be done in as little as 20 minutes!

My second favourite workout is simply Spin! It's an amazing workout and one that easily burns 500 - 700 calories in a single class.  I have been a 'spinner' for about 1.5 years and absolutely love it; even if it kicks my behind every single time *sigh* 


I had to switch fitness facilities in January and moved from a boutique fitness center to a corporate chain...call me a fitness snob, but I hated the facility (and sort of still do).  But that's a whole other rant for a whole other day. 


I finally found an instructor that I love, she offers a challenging class that always pushes me to the max.  I faithfully attend the class every Monday and Wednesday evening...and although it's a love/hate relationship it's the.best.workout.ever!

What about you...any favourite workouts?
