FULL BODY 20 MINUTE WORKOUT ⚽️⚡️ .
Remember to hit LIKE if you enjoy my videos so instagram knows to keep putting them in your feed 💛 .

If you’re short on time and want to sweat, grab a ball and you’ll be done in 20 minutes including your warm up! This is a full body session but you’re probably going to feel those shoulders A LOT 😉 
1. Ball Burpee Press 
2. Ball Around The World
3. Lunge + Forward Press
4. Plank (not filmed) .

Here’s how we’re going to smash it: .
- 🆗 WARM UP: this will take you 5 minutes. Start with leg swings, 25 per leg. Then arm swings, forward and back, up and down. Next, jog on the spot for 1 minute and turn that into high knees for another 30 seconds then back to your jog. Finally, hit some bodyweight squats and some slow push ups for another minute. - .
- 🆒 LETS GET IT: Hit the burpees for 60 seconds, the around the worlds for 60 seconds and then your lunge forward press for 45 seconds per leg followed by a plank for 30 seconds. Rest for 60 seconds once you’ve completed all 3. Repeat x2 more times. OH HEY 👋 First pic in a while! 
Today I had a little chat on my stories about - IF YOU’RE NOT GETTING RESULTS. 
At the moment, I’m receiving a lot of messages from people who just began their fitness journey in the new year, who haven’t seen many results yet, and they’re wondering why. .

FIRSTLY, I’ve said this time and time again and chances are you’ve read it over and over, but quality results take time. Don’t expect to have everything your health and fitness heart desires in 6 weeks. It can take months, even years, to achieve quality results that are maintainable for the rest of your life. So don’t rush! .

SECONDLY, don’t ever beat yourself up. Seriously what’s the point in making yourself feel awful just because your results are taking time? Don’t be discouraged. Think about how freakin amazing you’re going to feel when you do achieve what you want, and try to enjoy the process. Know you are looking after your body but know that it takes patience and consistency. .

LASTLY, assess your efforts. And I mean honestly assess them. You need to take a step back and look at what you’re doing. 
Are you genuinely, honestly, doing the things you know you need to do? Such as drinking enough water, eating healthy foods and moving your body regularly? If YES, keep going girl!!! But usually, we can all pick at least ONE small thing that we could do better that will help us reach results. .

The only way you’re going to leap forward is to cut the excuses and know what you need to do differently. 
What’s your one thing?? Tell me and commit to it 👇 
Now go get ‘em tiger, you got this. 👊🦁 KEEP THAT CORE TIGHT ✌️😋 .. Now firstly, let’s clear something up.. . 🙅‍♀️ You’re probably not going to get a 6 pack by doing this workout. . 🙋🏻‍♀️ What you’re probably more likely to get, is a strong functional core that makes you feel like a badass. Hands up if you think that’s more important! 👐

These exercises are low impact and better done slowwwwwwww and controlled. 
Pull your belly button in, lift your abs ‘up’ and engage that pelvic floor galfriend. Let’s go! 
1. Kneeling Lean Back (not for you if you have bad knees mmmk skip this one) 
2. Plank To Bear
3. Shin Taps 
4. Single Leg Drops 
5. Bridges 
Try each exercise for 45 seconds each, taking deep slow breaths as you work. X3 sets of each.

I recommend choosing 2-3 of these at a time and chucking them onto the end of your workouts twice a week! 
Hit LIKE if you enjoy these low impact videos! 💛

Lets talk about weekend TREATS or CHEAT DAYS. .

You CAN treat yourself on the weekend without ruining your progress, but don’t go overboard.

There’s a big difference between allowing yourself some food or drinks on a Saturday that you wouldn’t normally have during the week, and then having a total blow out in calories which could potentially un-do an entire weeks worth of effort. .

As a trainer it’s quite common to come across clients who are confused about why they’re not getting results, considering they eat well all week and only have ‘treats’ on the weekend. But all along they weren’t realising their weekend ‘treats’ were totalling 3,000 calories a day. .

So YES, you can enjoy yourself, but if you have seriously health and fitness goals, be mindful about OVER indulging.

Remember - moderation! .
I saw the amazing @aimeelouisestcfit made an awesome hard truth post yesterday about the use of the word ‘BALANCE’... so go have a read if you find you’re using it a little too often. 👍
.
OH AND HAPPY STRAYA DAY 🇦🇺 💙 Hey beautiful women, just a friendly reminder that YOU are capable of so much more than you know, and just incase you don’t have the hype women around to keep reminding you, I’m going to be that hype woman. YOU CAN DO ANYTHING! 💛👊 My dms are always open if you need a pep talk. .
PS.

You... can also make healthy souvlakis for dinner, because the recipe is in my insta stories now. 😋 Enjoy!
