Syd's Super Easy Workout at Home

I'm not a fan of the gym. Its money that is basically thrown in the trash (unfortunately learning from past experience). Also the atmosphere of a gym is one I'm not a fan of. "We see that you are overweight and trying to better yourself but we are going to snicker at you when your running on the treadmill."  So, I've come up with a workout plan that works for me and I can do it throughout the day and the best news is I can stay in my pjs! So everyday I make a list of small things I can do everyday that get my heart rate up and get me moving. Everyday I write down what I plan on doing. Its a lot easier to stick with it if you write it down and not just make a not on your phone.

I for sure HATE my belly fat and am wondering why until now I've never decided to do anything about it. So I decided to do 100 sit ups in a day. I also am not a fan of my jiggly arms so I decided to work on the different parts of my arm. Here is my daily workout plan.  


 I am counting down the days until we go to Disneyland for the Star Wars 10k! Which I am super excited for and will be blogging about it. Its less than 72 days now but we'll just go with it. As you can see I do 30 reps of everything, no real science in that I just figured it was a good amount. 

Here is a break down of my work outs
Side to Side:  (Dumbbell Side Bend) Standing with your planted firmly about a foot apart hold a hand weight in each hand and bend to one side to touch the side of your knees. 
Over Head: Holding weights up by your ears have your wrists face forward, then raise your arms over your head having your wrists face each other.  
Sit Ups:  I use my yoga ball (because I have lower back issues and its pain full when I do sit ups on the ground) and a 10 lb hand weight which I hold in front of my abs.   
Behind Head:   Raise a hand weight so it is directly above your head then lower the weight behind your head. 
Chest Reps: For this I use ankle weights because the 10 pound weights would be too much. Hold arms out in a 90 degree angle on then press them together in a butterfly like motion. 
Squats: Self explanatory, however sometimes if my knees aren't really up for it I do a grand pliĆ©  which I like better anyway because it works my inner thy.  
Calf Raises: Also self explanatory but I sometimes like to hold a weight close to my chest 
Arm Curls: You know what that is, but I sometimes do them 15 at a time. I'm a wimp. 
Bridges: Laying flat on your back (I out a towel under my tail bone) raise your hips to "Let the ships through" as if you are a bridge ;) 

Right now we only have 65 days until Disneyland!!! We went to Disney World last year for the Princess Half Marathon. I've never been to Disneyland and my Pintrest is blowing up with tips and hacks! Hopefully this workout will help me get into shape before then!
