New Workout
The Exercise Challenge changes this week. For those of you who chose to take part of the exercise challenge, your challenge today is to do 30 crunches, 15 squats, 10 pushups, 20 calf raises.
This option is for those who do not exercise regularly and would like to jump start their new year with an easy exercise routine. Each round of exercises take just a few minutes to complete. It would also be wise to add a bit of cardio to your day like walking, jogging, bike riding, or jump roping. Right when you get up in the morning, during lunch breaks, or before bed would be an excellent time to complete this routine.
THOUGHT-PROVOKING, MIND-PRODDING QUESTION OF THE DAY:
Do you change up your workout routine often, or do you prefer to do the same exercise?
Remember that you can track what you eat on the printable Challenge Checklist.
Your smackaroons look delicious! I am going to try the recipe today!! I love reading your blog and all your recipes look wonderful, I can’t believe there is no sugar in them!
i’ve been changing up my workout and adding tons of yoga – my body is loving the break from long-distance running!
I’ve just made a version of your smaccaroons…. YUM – didn’t have normal coconut but used coconut flour, almond meal, raisins, banana – awesome! My little one loved them too, such a fun texture, thanks for the recipe 🙂
So glad they turned out well for you, Lou!! Thanks for trying it out!
YAY for cookie dough dip! 😀
