Wake Up workout:

Hi Everyone! Today kicks off a new series to look forward to all year long: My Wake Up Workout videos! Each month I will bring you a new workout to help you start the day. It’s a great way to introduce the concept of self care into your life in 2019: These mini workouts will help promote wellbeing, your personal health, and add a lift to your day!

I love starting the day with workouts like these: it helps wake you up, gets the blood flowing, and sets a great tone for the day. You can do these right when you get out of bed – no equipment needed!

Today’s Wake Up Workout is a whole body workout, touching on different parts of the body: the waistline, your hips, legs and thighs, and more – including a wonderful stretch that will loosen up the bed after a night of sleep.

Try to make it a point to do this Wake Up Workout with me each day for the rest of the month… trust me, you will feel so good when you are doing this consistently! A great addition to your regular workout routine. A new Wake Up Workout will be coming in February, so keep an eye out! And for more inspiring, effective workouts, join my 10-Week Whole Body Plan! I have almost 200 workouts of differing lengths that you can squeeze into your day. Cardio, target-toning, lengthening and strengthening… you name it, my 10-Week Plan has it!
