Too Cold to Run Outside – Alternate Workout Idea With Sunshiney Pineapple Clothing Wear
If you don’t have a treadmill but need to get in a workout and can’t run; don’t despair! There are plenty of weights workouts you can perform to strengthen your arms and legs. You don’t even have to be creative; there are thousands of workouts online, already synced with motivating music.
Just mixing it up is likely to engage different muscles. Once your body gets used to one routine, it’s nice to change things around and challenge different muscles. Although you are craving a run; sometimes it’s a good challenge to mix things up and target an area to strengthen.
If you don’t even have weights, it’s ok – you have your own body. There are hundreds of core workouts online that use your own body weight. Any core training you do will make you stronger on the boat, the bike, the road – whatever your normal good weather activity is!
This week, because we are targeting a century in September, I’m adding some leg work to my usual MWF arm weights workout. I found “Fit With Katie Rose Goes” through Pineapple Clothing Company. She is a lady with a truly inspirational story. She’s a Former NCAA Div. 1 Track & Field Athlete, and about a year ago, decided to get back into shape. Her “before” and “after” pictures will make you want to initiate a workout NOW!
October 2018, she published a workout filmed in her living room, and it looks easy – she makes it look so easy – but if you want a total body workout; this is the one. You will ache all over after the first time you do it, and I’ll let you know how it goes after the next several. Here’s Katie Rose’s Living Room Workout!
So far, I’ve made it through her workout twice. She says repeat all the moves, in sets, as many times as you can in 25-30 minutes. I just make it through each move’s set once in that time! And the next day? I ache so good! All over, when you know you’ve challenged new muscles good!
Also, there’s a bonus – you get to see her Yorkie “Duncan” zoom up and down the stairs while she demonstrates moves. You also can find her on Instagram, at #FitWithKatieRoseGoes, and find the individual clips to her moves there if that’s more convenient. She has a food blog as well, at #KatieRoseGoes that is mouth-watering. I’ve never met her – but everyone needs a friend like Katie Rose! That’s the beauty of social media! Connections!
I’ve learned that there are so many online resources to keep you motivated. Grab some attractive workout wear, put it out the night before, make a plan, and stick to it. As you get ready forgoing to work; you’ll be so glad you already got in a good workout, you’ll be in a great mood, and you won’t have any dreary-weather-blues!
Also, how cute is this new active wear from Pineapple Clothing? It arrived just in time for my training to begin. Nothing more inspiring than serious workout wear that looks great.
I’d anticipated the arrival of my Pineapple workout gear for two weeks – it’s custom-made for you; so it does not arrive instantly. Their delivery service includes texts that let you know it’s left Opa-Loka! Arrived Daytona! Left Daytona! Just landed on your doorstep! When I saw the pineapples – I knew it was “Game ON!” Time to triple down on my weaknesses and work on targeting that century 100-mile ride in September!
I’m so happy to be partnering with them – their clothes are cute, comfy, made right in Miami, the quality is fantastic, and the gear is affordable! They have more than just active wear, too. Click the link here and enter the code kimwal at the checkout for 20% OFF your purchase.
