Summer Holiday Weekend Recap

Hello and happy Monday to you!  Did you melt this weekend?  My Lord it was hot.  And what do you do when you're us on a hot weekend?  Dig out a tree obviously.   😑   Remember the pic of the tree from last week after the landscapers hacked it up? It went bye-bye.  We were going to attempt to save it to possibly see if my friend could plant it at her new home (even though it should be done when dormant.)  Well, after determining the roots attach to the Earth's core, we had to scrap that idea.  We tried to get out early enough but it wasn't.  We hacked off the top in sections using some really great pruning shears that made that job super easy then the Mr lobbed off the top so we could begin on the roots.  We bought a shovel called the Root Slayer and I will say it did an amazing job getting through most of it.  Neither of us are at our strongest right now so despite knowing we could've continued with chipping away at ...

Best of Fitness Blender: Upper Body Workouts


Continuing in the series of some of my favorite Fitness Blender.com workouts, here are some upper body workouts.  All use free weights and they vary in length.

Upper Body Strength and Cardio Workout - Upper Body Superset Workout  (27 minutes.  This one is a great mix of supersets and cardio in between.  Free weights required)

Upper Body Tabata Workout – Intense 60 Minute Back, Shoulders, and Arms Workout  (60 minutes.  This one will have your arms and back feeling like jelly afterward.  Definitely plan on a light or rest day the next day!  Free weights required.  Can be modified down to lower impact with a little imagination.)

Fit is Better than Skinny – Upper Body Strength & Cardio Training Workout  (37 minutes.  A good strength workout with tabata style cardio intervals intermingled.  Modify cardio if necessary.)

Lean Arms Workout – Rhomboids, Shoulders, Bicep, Tricep, and Chest  (20 minutes.  Dumbbells of varying weights required.

Cannonball Shoulders Workout – Deltoid Exercises to get Bigger Shoulders (14 minutes.  I always need to work on this area and it's great to build up the shoulders for outdoor summer sports!)

If these workouts aren't for you, you can peruse Fitness Blender.com to see what is more your speed.

(I am in no way affiliated with Fitness Blender, I'm just blogging about them because we use their awesome workouts all the time and in their support us section they encourage word of mouth to keep it free.)
