Guys I am loving your love on my first workout post! So many people shared posts and stories about trying my blogged workout and in-person demo classes! I love it. As promised, my new workout of the week post is live every FRIDAY at MIDNIGHT! This means you can wake up Friday morning and take advantage of fitness Friday, or save it for the weekend or next week!
Also, well aware of the title of this workout - don’t let it fool you, it’s still challenging! I title my workouts when I write them to help me keep track of when and why I did them. This particular workout was written with the intent that I could watch TV while doing it. I don’t necessarily recommend watching TV while working out, but sometimes I need it. Some days I am lethargic from sitting all day and I want to move my body but also want to lounge and do nothing. Enter, the TV workout. I get the best of both worlds. I can tune out and work up a sweat without thinking about it. Feel free to skip the TV and turn up the music to get focused and push yourself!
If you have confusion about an exercise or questions about making a move less or more challenging, please comment or contact me - my goal is to share workouts that everyone can do and I am happy to provide those modifications on request. Additionally, remember you can google any of the moves to get a demo!
