Bikini Boot Camp Challenge: Week 9

Oh man, guys! So, the moves in this six-minute boot camp video are pretty basic, but since there’s really no rest involved, your muscles are going to be BURNING with a capital B. Like, I’m actually wondering how the girl in the video did the entire workout without ever breaking form or making a weird face. How did she do it?! HOW?!

Your goal is to complete the workout in it’s entirety. You are not allowed to break form, but you can make weird faces if you want. In fact, I’m sure that you will once you start to feel the burn! Try to repeat this one 2 or 3 times, with about 1 or 2 minutes rest in between each circuit.

Don’t forget! After this week, you’ve got just two more weeks left. So, make sure you are staying on track with your workout regimen and keeping up with your diet. Because before you know it, the beach will be calling your name. And if you want that bangin’ bikini body, you gotta work for it!

Bikini Boot Camp Challenge: Week 1

OK, here we go! Today kicks off the official start of my 11-Week Bikini Boot Camp Challenge! The first workout on our schedule is this butt-kicking, 10 minute Boot Camp video by Hollywood Trainer Jeanette Jenkins for Fit Sugar. 

I just finished up with this workout and oh, baby… it was a good one! Don’t be fooled by the fact that it’s only 10 minutes because trust me, you’re heart rate is going to shoot up within the first minute or so and your muscles will be burning all the way through!

My favorite move from this workout was the “Back Row Fly with a Booty Tap.” I mean, aside from the fact that it just sounds super awesome, it’s pretty fun to do and you can feel every muscle you’re working while you’re at it. (Upper back, legs, and butt!)

I have to be honest with you guys though, 10 minutes a day isn’t likely going to be enough if you want to look really bangin’ in your bikini, which is why I would recommend either of the following:

- Repeat the workout in this video 3 times for a killer 30 minute plyometric, total-body strength workout!

or

- Complete the workout in this video before or after a light 30 to 45 minute cardio session. (Ex: I did a 1-hour yoga class this morning. However, a walk outside with your dog or a light jog on the treadmill would be great too!)

Now it’s your turn! If you haven’t gotten your Bikini Boot Camp workout on yet today, well, what are you waiting for?! Get to it!
