Work Out

by //

 

Swimsuit season is quickly approaching and though I don’t believe anyone else really cares what we look like, it always helps for us to feel our best when we’re half naked prancing around other people. 🙂 Who invented this idea anyway? Moving on. I know there are a million work-out regimens out there, but I thought I’d share one with you that I did and my whole body hurt for 2 days. Ahem. I found it on Lauren Conrad’s website and you’re supposed to do it twice (if you can still move)!

  • 100 jumping jack
  • 20 crunches
  • 20 squats
  • 10 push ups
  • 25 bench dips (you can do this using a chair)
  • 60 second wall sit
  • 60 second plank

Hello to all of Linda’s lovely readers, so thrilled to be here. I’m Maria of Johns Journal where I pen a lifestyle blog sharing about  life, love, and even fashion!
 Linda is a true sweetheart and so thoughtful to have me, I read her blog daily and adore her style.
Lately, I’ve been on a quest to battle any winter blues that inevitably sneak in this time of year. I think the perfect anecdote to the long cold days of Winter is wearing bright colors. It’s generally unexpected and such a sweet cherry surprise on those dreary gray days. Even a single accessory with a jolt of color can put an extra skip to your step. Take that winter! And bonus, almost all of these items can mix and match!
