fun, accessible workouts for women
The novelty of Monday is over, and now – after a string of short weeks – we finally have to face the reality of five days at work… in a row! Yuck. Lucky for you, I thought I’d make things a little easier with a fun-filled workout, guaranteed to get the endorphins flowing. You find squat jumps fun, right?

What. A. Week. I am totally and utterly exhausted as I sit here with a glass of water and a (bigger) glass of wine, pulling together the workout that I planned for you guys last weekend.
This workout is pretty indicative of what I’ve had time for in my own schedule this week – it’s hard, it’s fast and it’s simple.
Enjoy.

Thank goodness Friday has finally arrived! I’ve been feeling really flat this week – probably a combination of my dadda heading home, the cold creeping in and this unpredictable weather! Lou has a storm-phobia, and while I’m we’re very lucky to be surrounded by people who look out for him, it doesn’t stop the anxiety whenever I see ‘possible thunderstorms’ on the radar – which seems to be every second day at the moment!

If you’ve been following my travels on Facebook or Twitter recently, you’ve probably noticed that I’ve been loving Fitness First’s new look The Zone gym on King Street in the Sydney CBD. The high intensity 30 minute (or 15 minute for the seriously time-poor) classes are an excellent way to escape the computer and burn some serious calories, fast.
