Fat Booty Friday!!!

It's that time again, #FatBootyFriday is here!!  

What exercise are we doing this week you ask?  Frog Hops! I did these with a 20 lb medicine ball, BUT, you can do them with whatever weight fits your current fitness level.  I've had some people do it with zero weight and break out into a twerk mid-hop to give their legs a rest.  

Twerking?


Yes, you read that correctly, twerking with frog hops.  As soon as their hands touched the ground, twerkage occurred.  

In case you're wondering, twerking is awesome cardio.  Especially if you incorporate some gentle twerks with a few savage twerks. 

Gentle = basic twerk 


Savage = Make ya knees touch ya elbows

So if you're ever feeling like you need to take the first step, feel free to get a nice little twerk in to start your day off with some cardio :)


I love this exercise in particular because it incorporates squatting with a quick burst from the ground to get those glutes AND your quads together.  Can't have a big booty with puny thighs.

The thigh to cake ratio has to match so hopefully this exercise helps you out a little.  My recommendation is 4 sets of 1 minute of hops

For those who don't already know,  I've switched to using instagram as a way to share Fat Booty Friday.  Follow me at fitness.with.ky !!!! Moving on, everyone knows that I am a strong twerking enthusiast.  If you're thinking to yourself "that's so ratchet, why would she say twerking is a workout?", then this isn't the blog for you.   You've also probably never twerked for more than 2 minutes.  Twerking for half of a party will have you leaving out the function looking like you just ran a mile and did a full blown workout.  The next morning you wake up trying to figure out if you partied hard or got beat up.  Back be all types of outta commission.  It's a FULL BODY WORKOUT!! It's especially great for core and glute toning.  I know some of you still aren't with me on this so here's a snippet of some Twerk Fitness for you.     Are you tired yet?  That was barely a 2 minute snippet, now imagine doing that for 10 min

Week 3 Update: Hips Don't Lie

Day 1: Rest                 Time: 0:00           Weight: 176.7 You all would be so proud of me.  I actually did rest on this day....kind of.  I got on a lateral cardio machine for 15 minutes, and did light weights.  No biggie.  And then, I went home, cuddled with my kid (Sadie), and went to sleep.  Day 2: 3.5 miles         Time: 40:02          Weight: 175.1  Okay, so I had gotten so used to running my little 2-3 miles during the week that I just knew having to do 3.5 miles wouldn't be so bad.  I. Was. WRONG.  I woke up this morning with a little itch in my throat, so I knew that I was most likely about to catch a cold.  I immediately took some Zicam and a shot of Apple Cider Vinegar *beats chest*.  The first mile felt AWFUL.  My body was aching all over and for whatever reason I was struggling to breathe.  Normally I have a rhythm to my breathing and tend to only breathe out of my mouth on the last mile but I was breathing like I had already run 10 miles.  I ser

Bish You Running, You REALLY running!!!!!

Ohhhh snap, so exactly one week ago I ran a half marathon.   Yep, you read that right, I completed a goal I set for myself and ran 13.1 miles with my knees strapped up tight in braces, my heart racing from drinking a pre-workout, and the motivation of unyielding anxiety and stubbornness that made me too legit to quit. Let's back track: a little over 3 months ago I woke up and decided that I wanted to conquer one of my fears and run a half marathon.  What started out as Facebook status updates turned into a weekly blog with updates on my training, weight, physical and mental health, as well as genuine reactions to a new training regimen. For a refresher on why I woke up and decided to just wake up and run a half marathon, here's the snippet from my very first post:     Long story short, I wanted to do something that would help with my anxiety.  As a result of running for 30 minutes or longer most days, I did just that, kind of.  Well, I learned how
