30 Min Circuit Workout

Ever since I've been (gratefully) getting all of those extra zzzz's I've been bursting at the seams with excess energy, so what do I do with it all you might ask? .... 

I get good & sweaty. God I love it. 

When Nicole was here we started doing an outdoors routine each day which involved taking the kids for a brisk stroll to the park, and then doing park bench jumps, press ups, tricep dips etc... It was really cool & has given me the slight push I needed to get back into resistance workouts. 

Introducing the 30 minute at-home circuit;

I've been doing this in my teeny tiny patio area when the kids have their midday nap, and all you need is a mat, a skipping rope & some weights;

Doing it in three 10 minute blocks is more than enough to start burning, and you can easily switch up the exercises for different ones of your choice. Just make sure you do 60 full seconds as hard as you can continuously with each one, & I promise you - you'll be a sweaty mess by the end of it.

(I actually half assed it today to be honest so you can do it as per how you're feeling at the time really- anything counts!)

I also did Jacobs ladder on Saturday morn & start my ballet tomorrow eve- it never eventuated last week as I had a killer headache!

On top of the exercise, I've been eating loads of goodies;

LSA crumbed chicken with brown rice spinach & avocado lunches

Fish Tacos 

Slow cooked beef and veggie stew 

Chicken Cashew stir fry, with a mandatory red- my ultimate happy place

I'm feeling good folks, full to the brim with healthy goodies & on track to being a super-fly version of me!

Ha ha, super-fly.

Oscar has slept 10 hours straight two nights in a row now, I'm a little afraid to jinx it but.... WOOOHOOOOOOO!! Even it it only happens those two times I'll feel safe in the knowledge that it could very well happen again! So obviously, things are chipper around here- we are feeling sprightly & full of smiles. Tonight, Nat & I are off to see the Arctic Monkeys & I am bouncing off the walls- seeing as Lorde cancelled on us a couple of weeks back, this was exactly what I had been waiting for! Even if it is a school night. (Every night is a school night)

I'll be sure to inundate you with pics,

Hope everyone is having a stellar week
