Morning Minimal Equipment Workout

6 wks postpartum

50/10 x 4

10 squats + 10 Jump Jacks
Triceps Dip (I used the equalizer)
10 High Knees + 10 Butt Kicks
10 Cross Push-ups + 10 Plank Punches
Crazy Ivan's with Medicine Ball

MY SCORE:
2.5 2. 2. 3+
22 24 38 49
6 7 6 8
1+5, 1+6, 1.5, 3!
16 20 23 31

Note, in hind sight I'd modify this workout down to 5s and not 10s. 10s are great if your doing untimed with 4 sets and maybe 20 tri dips. This workout felt great and got me sweating in a short in tense time. It's was necessary since Seth went to work later and I had limited time this morning. Running was rained out and morning play date walk was canceled do to feverish kiddo. Carpe diem! Or the morning in this case. ANYONE WHO KNOWS ME, knows I'm NOT an AM sweater.
