August Workout








Blue Cheese Hamburger Dinner Workout


600 to 800 calories workout



45 minute hour walk heart rate 75% target zone - goal to burn 400 to 500 calories

20 minutes Circuit Strength Training - goal to burn 200-300 calories
  1. Dumbbell Lying Chest Press
  2. Stable Single Leg Lunge
  3. Dumbbell Bicep Curl
  4. Floor Crunch- abdominal - 25 reps
  5. Lying Hip Bridge - hamstrings and glutts
  6. Dumbbell Tricep Kickbacks
  7. Standing on one leg Cable Back Row
  8. Shoulder dumbbell Side Raise
Perform 15 repetitions of each exercise and repeat many times through the circuit as you can in 20 minutes. Moving faster will keep your heart rate up to burn more calories, if you feel it is to easy chose heavier weights and do a 30 sec cardio movement like jumping jacks or running in place, in between exercises.

Cool down and stretch all muscle used in workout.

  1. Dang Erica,
    I just can't eat like that and not gain weight, I'm going to try some of your work out exercises and see if it helps.
    thank you for the ideas.
