Friday Finds {Vol. 4}

Today, I'm finding these workouts to be great for completing at home. I am currently working through Body Beast, and I LOVE it. Nothing like some sore muscles to make you feel stronger. You can check out how this program works by clicking HERE. I would love to guide you more on this workout out - send me an email if you want more info! Don't be scared of lifting weights - strength training is necessary in any fitness journey.

I look for ones that are 20-40 minutes long. Like I mentioned before, tabatas are my favorite. Grab the app and create your own workout - or check this one out HERE.

Disclaimer - I posted quite a bit of exercises and you may need to watch the video tutorials before trying the the workouts.  Also, please preview the exercises so you can do them correctly.

My mission is to show ANYONE how fitness can work in your schedule - if you can't find time, MAKE time. If you give a regular workout schedule a try, in 3 weeks, it will become a habit you can't quit. Your brain benefits too - who doesn't want increased brain power?? Let's do it!
