Today’s Boot Camp Workout – Sexy Arms and Metabolic Blast!!

Hey everybody!

I hope your day is going awesome!  The boot camp workout I made today was a killer and I’ve had a couple emails and a Facebook response or 2 asking if I could send them the workout we did.

So I thought that it would be totally awesome to put it up on the blog rather than sending individual emails that way EVERYONE could partake in the torture…I mean fun!

Here’s the rundown…

Warm-up:
1A) Hatchet – 15 reps
1B) Squat w/Push – 15 reps

1A) DB Swing – 20 seconds
Rest 10 seconds
1B) Squat w/Shoulder Press – 20 seconds
Rest 10 seconds and repeat for 4 minutes – for the math-challenge, that should be 4 rounds…

Hope you enjoy it!

All the ladies were panting and their arms were very jell-o-like, which is exactly what I was going for.

When you really take a look at the workout, there’s nothing overly strenuous by itself, it’s the way the workout is put together – the way the exercises are combined and the reps used that really kick the intensity up a bit.

Just make sure you adhere to my 1 rule…Always work hard! It doesn’t matter what your current fitness level is because everyone can work hard.  Just make sure you keep moving forward and constantly challenge yourself.

Have an awesome day!

And Remember…

…Be A Superhero Today!
