Summer is coming. Are your fitness goals ready for it?

Hey everyone!

Welcome to week 6 of our 8-week “Feel the Burn” summer workout series!

I can’t believe how fast the last month and a half have flown by!

What the May? And we’re halfway done with it!

If your body could use a little toning and tightening before the summer weather of June hits then jump on in with our 8-week “Feel the Burn” workout series here on T&T!

For the last 5 weeks I’ve been sharing cardio and strength training workouts to help slim you down and tone you up for the summer months.

Today, we’re kicking things up a notch as we enter the home stretch of the last 3 weeks of the series.

So lace up, grab your water bottle, and get ready to Feel the Burn!

Here’s how the “Feel the Burn” series works: below you will find 2 different workouts – Cardio and Strength. I want you to alternate performing these workouts and try to do them 2-3 times each this week (performing each twice would be 4 workouts for the week; 3 times each means 6 workouts this week). I recommend trying to do them one a day and work them into your weekly schedule as possible.

Workout 1 – CARIO

Warm Up

March in place, run stairs, jumping jacks, or check out this killer 3-minute at-home workout! Anything to get the blood flowing to our muscles prior to the workout:

Here we go!

Jumping Jacks (1 minute)

Butt Kicks (1 minute)

Alternating Toe Touches (Box/Stair) (1 minute)

Burpee (1 minute)

Stairs (if they’re available- run them for 2 minutes)

Russian Twist (1 minute)

High Knees (1 minute)

Speed Skaters (1 minute)

Repeat this series 2-3 times as time allows; should take 25-35 minutes total.

Cool Down

March in Place (march it out to bring the heart rate back down)

Workout 2 – STRENGTH

Your strength workout this week is one of my favorite 15-minute EMOM (Every Minute On the Minute) workouts.
Here’s how it works: Press start on a timer. You then have 2 minutes to get through 10 reps of each of the following 6 exercises. When the timer reaches 2 minutes you have to do it again. Then again at 4 minutes… then at 6… The quicker you finish your sets the more rest you get between rounds. Complete 7 rounds total for 14 minutes of total-body, calorie-shredding madness!

Push START on your timer

10 Push-Ups

10 Sit Ups

10 Air Squats

10 Box Jumps (we used stairs)
box jumps bench

10 Dips chair dips triceps

10 Alternating Jump Lunges (each leg – 20 total)

Congratulations!

Performing these workouts 4+ days this week will help you progress to a fitter, tighter summer bod!

Working out is effective, but to take your results to a whole new level you have to combine it with proper nutrition.
