Would you like to know my favorite part of having a blog? Well, I love having my favorite recipes saved all in one place. That’s pretty cool. But what I love the absolute most is the community. So many of you commented on my last post about why I started a strict anti-inflammation diet and shared your stories, gave advice, and offered words of encouragement. Thank you, thank you, thank you a million times. You’ve given me a lot to think about and even more research to do!
Since last Fitness Friday I focused on arms, I thought it would be fitting to focus on legs today. I don’t know how it is where you are, but we are finally enjoying some spring-like weather in Ohio. When the sun is shining and temperatures are warm, the last thing I want to do is head to a gym, so whenever I can I take my workout outside.
This Leg Burner Stroller Workout was my favorite workout of the last week. Going outside for my workout means I don’t get to use the gym child-care. A stroller workout is the perfect solution! Even if you don’t have a young stroller-aged child, you can do this workout. The stroller adds another dimension to the workout because you’re pushing something while you walk/run, but you’ll still get a great workout without it.
I love that this workout mixes in cardio intervals with some leg exercises and sprinting that will definitely have you feeling the burn. No weights required.
[/print_this]As you can see, it’s a 45 minute workout. Because I was constantly changing things up, it flew by for me. I love workouts like that! I kept the descriptions for pace general–easy or medium. Easy running pace should be a pace where you could comfortably carry on a conversation. Medium running pace should be a pace where you are pushing yourself more and should fall between comfortable conversation pace and what your race pace would be (which is what I would call a hard run). Sprinting should be almost all-out. The sprints are only 30 seconds, so just go as fast as your legs will take you and then you can have a 30 second recovery walk, or even stop to rest during that 30 seconds if needed. I used the stop-watch function on my phone to keep time.
If you’re looking for a medium-intensity cardio interval workout that will really work your legs, this is a great one to try! Let me know if you test it out.
What was YOUR favorite workout of the last week?
It’s great to see this information. You workout by stroller. It save times as well.
