Wednesday Workout: Birthday Style

I'm going to share with you all what I did for my OptiMom Bootcamp class today. It was a rockin workout and it was all in honor of one of our fabulous members who turned 44!
BIRTHDAY BURPEES!!!

I designed this workout around her birthday. Feel free to modify and use your birthday to create a great workout too. 

Our participant turned 44 and was born on the 17th.

A. 4x11=44
We began with a series of 4 exercises and performed 11 reps of each because 4x11=44

1. 11 Situps
 
2. 11 Pushups
 
3. 11 Burpees
 
4. 11 Curl and Presses


B. 17-4x4's
She was born on the 17th, so we did 17 rounds of 4 rep Supersets
1. 4 Dumbbell Plie Squats
 
2. 4 Pop Squats
 
Repeat 17 times

OUCH.

C. 4x11=44 Again!

D. 17-4x4's
1. 4 Tricep Dips
 
2. 4 Overhead Dumbbell Tricep Extensions
 
Repeat 17 times

  1. I have never wished to be younger than I did today. It was a great workout Liz and for once, my birthday celebration didn't end in a guilty 'why did I do that?' but with a 'I did that!'
