Congratulations, you’ve made it to Friday. Any fun plans?

I’m excited for a weekend at home to clean, organize and catch up on life. Which means lots of work too, good thing I love what I do!

I also have a few workouts lined up! After taking a few days off post Spartan race, I’m ready to work hard for the Table Rock 15K.

Dan and I tried to workout on Monday, but both of us agreed about 5 minutes into our workout that we weren’t recovered enough.

We basically walked around the gym, did a few deadlifts and a few pullups to make it look like we were working out, while we waited for his mom to finish her workout.

Then Tuesday was filled with travel and fatigue. I listened to my body and took an extra rest day.

But then something wonderful happened on Wednesday…

I woke up excited to move. I craved a workout all day long until Ashton made it to the gym (we agreed to workout together).

And that’s where this workout comes into play.

I wasn’t lying when I said I wanted to improve my hill training, and with the race just weeks away, I don’t have a whole lotta time to waste. I plan on doing workouts similar to this one 2-3 times each week until race day.

It was tough and we were sweaty messes by the end. I wanted to use the “I want to scale back because I just ran a race” excuse several times, but let’s face it:

You don’t get better from quitting.

You get better from pushing through the challenges.

So we did. And it hurt… in a good way. I will admit, having Ashton beside me helped tremendously. I probably would have used less weight had she not been there.

Because I love to give good challenge… I am challenging you to complete it this weekend!

Do the workout, and post a picture up on Instagram (just make sure to tag me). Let’s all be virtual workout partners, what do you say?

The Rock Hard Butt Workout

While it’s definitely a total body burner, there is more emphasis on the glutes and hamstrings since those are the zones I need to focus on the most.

So you’ll start with a half mile run (set the treadmill to 6.5% incline), and then complete the circuit.

The circuit starts out with higher reps, which means you’ll start with a lighter weight. As the reps come down, your goal should be to increase the weight.

The final 6 reps, should be HEAVY for you. ← But a weight where you can keep your form perfecto. Deal?

Okay, quick overview of the moves…

Questions??

Okay… I think that’s it for this gorgeous Friday! Have a wonderful weekend!
