Hey everyone,
So I haven’t posted in a while and I suppose you can say this is where the excuses start… and I would say they are the same excuses for slacking on my workout routine. Hoping that July is a lot less eventful I have created for myself and for whoever wishes to join, a simple and basic workout routine that can be altered to fit any fitness level.
I plan on posting a few time to provide updates and encouraging words.I hope you enjoy it and keep me updates with your success.
Love,
Julia xoxo
PS… Who says you have to start in July…. START TODAY 🙂
JULY – 31 days…. READY SET GO
Each week is made up of a minimum of 5 workout days…sometimes 6 but that is up to you to decide.
Out of the 5 days- 3 days will be cardio/strength and 2 days will be cardio/abs
Cardio Strength days…
Start: Initial Warmup / Stretch (I like to walk for 5 minutes)
Running for 40 minutes
Uphill walking for 15 minutes
Minimum of 30 burpees (WITH THE PUSH UPS) or how many you can do in 10 minutes
FUN FACT *In this workout you are targeting 6 main muscle groups Deltoids, Gastrocnemius & Soleus, Gluteus, Hamstrings, Quadriceps, Triceps !!!
Cardio/ Abdominals
Your favourite warm up
Running / Jogging 40-60 minutes
Your favourite ab workout
Here are some of my youtube favourites…

I absolutely LOVE Passion 4 Profession ab workouts. Over the years I have gone through all 3 levels and have to say in comparison to the P90x, Insanity, Jillian Michaels and Blogilates these are my favourite because I find they are most effective and most challenging for my fitness level.
On the weeks where you wish to add your 6th day I recommend doing either the scheduled cardio/ ab workout or a variation of it as sometimes overdoing strength training can result in negative results…and unfortunately I do speak from experience.
