Welcome to Week Five of the 8-Week Fitness Jumpstart hosted by Play. Party. Pin. and myself! If you missed any of the previous weeks, no worries! You can join in at any time, and catch up on the previous weeks by clicking here!
After last week’s weigh in, I was excited to see that my hard work is paying off, and I hope that you saw positive results, too. If you’re following the workout guide and eating healthy food including the dinners on our menu guide, you should be starting to see a change in your body shape as well. The numbers on the scale are NOT the only indicator of your success though, so don’t be discouraged if they aren’t dropping quickly. This Fitness Jumpstart is all about getting healthy and fit and making positive lifestyle changes, and weight loss is a secondary motive (though it will happen with good nutrition and regular exercise!).
WORKOUT PLAN: For each day shown, complete the listed exercises at least once (note: if you are able, repeat each cycle 2-3 times to maximize results) and walk/run for the stated amount of time. This week’s workout incorporates run/walking. For these workouts, run for 90 seconds followed by walking for 60 seconds. Repeat the run/walk cycle for 30 minutes.
