8 minute fun & effective step workout

November 5, 2014 //  by Di Hickman

When I taught fitness classes in the UK I had regular step classes twice a week. A few years ago we picked up this Reebok step, free on the curbside. Amazing what people throw out. One woman's trash, is another woman's treasure. And this step has definitely been a treasure. From a stand-alone step workout to circuit intervals it's been a part of my fitness regime since.

12 minute core workout

October 29, 2014 //  by Di Hickman

 Hey fitness family, time for a new workout here on the website and I decided that this week should be a core workout, mostly because I'm pooped. We went to Disneyland Sunday and had a hella late night which left us both absolutely exhausted. Then I had to work yesterday which I did ok with till midway through my bodypump class at Golds last night when I felt like I'd got NOTHING left, no gas left in the tank. I managed to gather it up from somewhere though and finished the class ;) Even though …

8 minute yogalates routine.

quick 8 minutes yogalates workout

October 22, 2014 //  by Di Hickman

People who go to my spinning and bodypump classes are always shocked when I do yoga. I have an ability to turn off my manic "go, push, harder" persona and slip into my inner yogi. Yoga is something I've done since I was around 13. I remember going to classes at the local church hall, and while I may not practice consistently it's always something I've come back to over the last 30 years (geez I feel old now!). I love blending yoga and pilates together, along with other forms of exercise into a …

quick cardio workout for time

Quick cardio workout – for time

October 15, 2014 //  by Di Hickman

After last weeks foam rolling workout I went for something short and sweet, with a quick cardio workout for time. I like the short workouts because I get nice and sweaty in a short time and I can do multiple workouts a day. Plus these are great for busy days where time is short. The idea for this workout is to go for your best time, while obviously trying to keep good technique throughout. Equipment Jump Rope Kettlebell Medicine ball Mat. Plus a watch or timer on your …

Foam Rolling Workout

October 8, 2014 //  by Di Hickman

Recently I've been noticing a few more muscle aches and pains, and a few more injuries. Yes aside from the ones sustained by the spotty beast above, when I tripped over him running, then he headbutted my knee Monday... I swear he's super friendly really, that's the problem, he's OVER friendly that he's clumsy. Anyway I decided in August I'd spend more time foam rolling and only just got around to it. I've had cramp in my left calf on and off for over a day so that needs rolling out …

5 minute medicine ball workout

September 10, 2014 //  by Di Hickman

Woohooo two posts this week! Amazing ;) Ok seriously though I am getting back on track!!! I've had a niggling shoulder and ankle injury but things seem to be getting better with those too. I know my body and it's responding well to the cross training I've been doing with adding in more yoga and swimming which is GREAT! Last week I managed to do twisting half moon pose and this week I did crow and held it for about 5 seconds, no falling on my face. Loving yoga right now. I also did wheel for the …

8 minute jump rope interval workout

September 3, 2014 //  by Di Hickman

Workout Wednesday and this week is a jump rope interval workout. I actually needed to do cardio so I incorporated this into my Tuesday schedule. Sometimes it's tough to get a workout in, especially cardio, so these 10 minute workouts are awesome. I plan on doing this Wednesday morning before BodyPump class too! In the workout video I did 8 exercises, and two of the jump rope exercises were repeated. Each exercise is done for 45 seconds with 15 seconds of rest. Total of 8 minutes. Remember …

12 minute kettlebell workout

August 20, 2014 //  by Di Hickman

Ok it's back to reality and back to the grindstone regarding training, though I'll be switching things up more as one of the takeaways from the IDEA world fitness convention was VARIETY. Cross training is always something I've encouraged but it's definitely something I'll be doing more of. This weeks workout is a kettlebell workout but you can do the workout without the kettlebell, see the end of the video for more details and examples of those.  The workout video is just one set of work, …

12 minute beach ball workout

July 9, 2014 //  by Di Hickman

Last week I did something SUPER smart! I recorded TWO workouts, and it was a good job as I've had little opportunity to get a workout done as we have workmen doing some hard landscaping in our yard. Sometimes I amaze myself with my ideas ;) Seriously though I did two as it's something I wanted to get ahead with and this week was the PERFECT reason why... I don't want the workmen to think I'm any crazier than they already think I am ;) The workout has 45 seconds of work followed by 15 seconds of …
