Kick Butt Lake Workout
This morning we got up and drove down to Lake DeGray (about an hour away) to meet up with my sister and her kids and my dad and stepmother. Sarah and I decided to do a HIIT workout before we went out on the boat. She's a glutton for punishment too as you will see from the workout. We started with about a 12 minute run. The first half mile is all up hill ;-)
After the warm-up run, we did intervals of sprints plyo and/or push ups. Each exercise was done for 20 seconds with 20 second rest in between:
Set 1
Sprint
Push ups
Plyo Jacks
Set 2
Sprint
Burpees
Line taps
- rest 60 sec -
Set 3
Sprint
Squat jumps
Split jumps
Set 4
Sprint
Wide-arm push ups
Plie jacks
- rest 60 sec -
Set 5
Sprint
Spider push ups
Squat jumps
Set 6
Sprint
Split jumps
Speed skaters
- rest 60 sec -
Set 7
Sprint
Air jacks
Walking lunges
We were literally jumping for joy when it started to sprinkle. Sweaty mess!

After that bit of insanity, we hit the lake for some fun and skiing.
Lake means no makeup and lake hair.

After skiing, we headed in for a quick lunch and to let the kiddos rest up.
On the second trip out, my niece decided she was ready to brave the tube, but only with her Uncle Jason. She's a bit shy and timid about things. Last year she only tubed a few times and demanded that her Papa go VERY slow. This year, whole new ball game She was all about "monster waves."
My nephew was the one to demand to go slow this year and would only go with my stepmother (grandma). Of course, when they he finally decided he was up for it, it started to pour AND hail! Ouch.
We managed to get out of the rain, heading a different direction and finding sun. This gave us a chance for some sister shenanigans.
Tonight my sister is staying with us and we're going to head out to the ballgame. I'll be back tomorrow with a recap of the rest of our Super Summer Day. I hope everyone is having a great weekend!

ReplyDeleteAW! You guys are like US, I swear to god! Jo just read this post with me, its "pizza Saturday" in our house this week and we kept commenting on how alike you and your sis are to us! SO cute, especially the hand-holding as you jumped into the lake. LOVE IT! And totally digging the lake hair, awesome huh? PS. I am TOTALLY doing this HiiT workout in Maine next week while on vaca!!

That looks like such a fun trip! I really wish the waters here at Los Angeles beaches are warm enough to actually swim in.
ReplyDeleteO I'm so jealous. I hope you dont think this is creppy, but you totally look like someone I'd be friends with. There are some blogs I read that are interesting and cool, but I don't see myself being a friend of the blogger in real life. Not the case with you!
ReplyDeleteI live in LA too so our water is arctic!
you BELONG at the beach and out on the water in the sunshine! such a beach babe!!
ReplyDeleteive been noticing how drained of energy i have been. i can barely even run down the street and my legs are retaining water and really stiff all the time. im trying to figure out what i can do to turn this around and get some good muscle building in without sitting around vegetating.. which is fun at first but incredibly boring lol
xoxo <3
Awwwww what a fab weekend!! You are so cute! Um, can I have your body please?! Ugh, I am sweating my butt off over here with the p90x getting there!
