Happy Wednesday! We are so excited to finally be sharing this post with y’all! We have been getting a lot of requests to start sharing more fitness-related content and videos, so here you go! Each week, we are planning on sharing videos, several of our workouts from the week, as well as a breakfast, lunch, and dinner recipe that we are planning on making this week or the following week!
Typically, we will do anywhere from 20-45 minutes of cardio, usually on the stair master, followed by weight training (each muscle group a different day). This week, we are sharing an arm and chest + calf workout, as well as a few videos!
Below is an arm workout we did last week + cardio:
This one is a chest + calf workout! We actually did this one yesterday!
