5 best agility cone drills for non boring cardio

June 14, 2017 //  by Di Hickman

It's no secret that I'm not a fan of steady state cardio. If you really enjoy the monotony of pounding the pavement, then sure go ahead and run. But unless your goal is to run a marathon, steady state cardio is doing you no favors. If you want a great cardio workout that is going to torch calories, improve your cardio and provide fun, then I suggest agility cone drills. If fat loss is your goal then HIIT (high intensity interval training) is where it's at. Intervals are my favorite …

Weight loss tips for women: How hydration impacts weight loss

April 25, 2017 //  by Di Hickman

  This post is sponsored by Upy Vacuum-Insulated Water Bottle Losing weight can be tough. Sure, the math looks simple: Eat less calories than you expend; but the practicality of that is not so easy. Especially if like me and you really enjoy food. I'm not kidding when I say I exercise so I can eat more. One thing you can do to help in the weight loss journey though is to drink more water. It might sound cliche but water is the best choice for your body, your brain and your weight loss …

int 3 bootcamp booty burner

Booty Burner – boot camp interval workout #3

February 8, 2017 //  by Di Hickman

If you ask women the area they want to tone the majority are going to say "legs, and butt!", and yes, I'm one of them. Luckily interval workout #3 from my free 31 day bootcamp is sure to light up the upper body. However it really sets fire to legs, giving you a booty burner of a workout. I admit my legs and butt are something I work on three times a week as it's where I tend to hold my fat, thanks to genetics. Now you can't spot reduce fat remember, but by doing exercises that incorporate …

5 REASONS TO DO AGILITY TRAINING

Agility Training, 5 reasons you should be doing it

August 2, 2015 //  by Di Hickman

Remember when you were a kid playing hopscotch on the driveway or schoolyard? Or playing tag? Or just running around in circles for the fun of it? Or maybe you challenged each other to go run to a tree and raced back? Weren't those fun? But also a great workout right? If you haven't put agility training in your workout program then your program is lacking in a very important part of fitness. So grab an agility ladder or cones and get that fire back in your workout. Not convinced? Check …

hiit the game stack 52 review

New card game is a hiit!

June 14, 2015 //  by Di Hickman

It's important to make fitness fun and one way to do that is to turn it into a game. Enter HIIT the Game by Stack 52. HIIT is an acronym for high intensity interval training, something I used to do a lot years ago but as I've been plagued with minor injuries that have kept me from high impact exercises I haven't done hiit for a while. The idea is that you do short but intense workouts giving 80-90% effort in short interval workouts. Studies have shown that interval workouts like HIIT burn fat, …

Review: Speedy Jump Rope by Our Fit Planet

April 25, 2015 //  by Di Hickman

A jump rope in my opinion is essential to home workouts. They are cheap, require little storage space and perfect for traveling, which I'll be doing soon! Yep we've booked a little vacation time in the RV so I'll be grabbing some of my go-to fitness equipment for traveling which will include a jump rope for some moderate to high intensity cardio, aside from hiking and cycling. Got to burn the beer calories off somehow! I was invited to try this Speedy jump rope by Our Fit Planet in exchange for …

12 minute HIIT workout

July 23, 2014 //  by Di Hickman

Wow this one was a tough one! I've been wanting to do more cardio lately, as I have a 5K race coming up in August and honestly I need to more more high intensity cardio rather than just spinning which I seem to have a lot of lately. If you try this workout you'll see that all you need is 12-15 minutes! Seriously, just workout as  hard as you can in those 12 minutes and you are DONE. I was a hot sweaty mess after this workout, though I was doing it outside in 97 ° beautiful sunshine! The …

10 minute HIIT workout

June 25, 2014 //  by Di Hickman

WORKOUT WEDNESDAY and I feel all accomplished and ahead because I got this video DONE, edited and up on youtube by Tuesday afternoon! Look at me go when I'm on my game ;) Anyway this workout is a 10 minute video of interval training. On the video you'll see I did 20 seconds low intensity followed by 20 seconds  high intensity version of the exercise, then 10 seconds rest before moving onto the next exercise. That means this workout is TEN minutes! Now if you aren't ready for 20 seconds high …
