30-Minute Workout With Cardio, Legs, and Core

April 6, 2016 by Jenna

You know the days when you want to get in a good workout, but at the same time you want it to be convenient and fast, yet still super effective? The days when you’re not really in the mood to run or go to the gym, but you know that working out is still a good idea?

Yeah, me too.

That’s why I put together this 30-Minute Workout with Cardio, Legs, and Core.

30-Minute Workout With Cardio, Legs, and Core

It’ll get your blood pumping. You’ll work your legs and core. And you won’t need any fancy equipment to do it. Hurray!

An Easy Core Strengthening Workout

February 1, 2016 by Jenna

A strong core is super important. Your core is in the middle of your body and is essentially the origin of all movement. Strengthening your core can help improve both balance and posture and can also help prevent injuries.

Because I want you to stand up straight and not fall down, I put together an easy core strengthening workout for you. By easy, I mean logistically easy. It is made up of 10 bodyweight exercises: 5 dynamic exercises + 5 isometric holds. The only equipment you need is a mat and a timer and the whole thing should only take 5-7 minutes to complete. This means you really have no excuse to not do it.

Core Strengthening Workout

This easy core strengthening workout can be as difficult as you want to make it. You can go through it 2-3 times total and/or hold the isometric exercises for longer than 30 seconds. There are also ways to regress some of the exercises if you need it as well.

Find the workout and the exercises cues over on Minneapolis Running!

My open heart surgery was 7 years ago and it’s a My open heart surgery was 7 years ago and it’s an anniversary I will never not celebrate. 

I carried a lot of trauma with me for a long time. I was nervous for every hike, every workout, religiously checking my heart rate, wondering if this would be the time my heart fails me again. Very dramatic, I know. But I kept at it, doing these things I love to do, working through the fear. Now the intrusive thoughts are few and far between. 

So here I am 7 years later, a stronger person both physically and mentally, hanging out at the top of a mountain with my babies after a nice, challenging hike.  It’s all I really want. 

I’m so grateful for this life and for the people who continue to support me ❤️
