Alternate Workouts

When you can't do your workout of choice, what is your alternate workout?  Today, I missed my 5am bootcamp crew but still got a workout in.  I completed the CrossFit workout workout below.  My second workout of the day is just below that.

EMOTM (every min on the min) for 10 mins
1 Clean
1 OTB (over the bar) Burpee
2 KB Swings
3 Ball Slams
Rest for 3 mins and then run a mile.

20 JJ / 20 Burpees / 20 Squats / 20 Push ups / 20 Sits Up
30 min run intervals

Completing two workouts with this type of intensity, I need to make sure that I fuel my body properly.  Otherwise, I will be tired and I won't see the changes that I need.  Eating properly is just as important as anything else when it comes to weight loss!

Great Day for a run.....

As part of the April Cardio Challenge, I decided to go out for a 30 mins run.  The sun was shining bright and there was a slight breeze......awesome day to get out running! Later this evening I'll hit bootcamp for a killer workout.  What have you done today for the April Challenge?

April Cardio Challenge

It's a new month with a new challenge - Cardio Challenge.  The challenge for this month is to do at least 5 days of cardio for 30 mins of more.  Who is on board?  Getting that cardio in with help shed the unwanted weight and fat.  Today I completed an hour of bootcamp and then went for a 20 minute bike ride.  What are some of your favorite cardio exercises?
