Mixing up my workout...

So if you are like me, and you live in the surface of the sun, you know that from the months of June - October, your workouts are done inside.  If you are also like me, and you live 10 miles away from your gym, you probably wont make the 25 minute one-way drive every single day.

I love me some workout videos, but there is only so many times I can do the same one before getting bored.  So, today, I looked at my Pinterest.  I found something that I pinned last year, and never used (obviously).  So, today, I tried it.

The app is called "Sworkit."  I downloaded the free one.  I decided to start slow and chose 15 minutes of Full Intensity Cardio.  I turned on my favorite music and went at it.  It tells you exercises to do in 30-second increments.  It even works in some water breaks/rest time.  Let me tell you, it was WORK!  Was it the most difficult thing?? No.  Had I been wearing a better bra, I could have probably made it better (#boobprobz).  But, did it keep my heart rate up? Yep!  Best of all, I could do things at my own pace, as long as I kept going for the 30 seconds. 

It was killer for me to get through 15 minutes, but I did.  I'm going to try to work up to 30, but I think I could do that.  Is this going to be an every day workout? No... but it will be nice to throw in the mix when I'm not in the mood to do a video!  Try it out, let me know what you think!
