3 High-Intensity, Bodyweight Workouts for 2018

By

I’ve partnered with Nike to bring you this blog post. As always, thank you for supporting CNC! 

Good morning and happy weekend!

With the start of a new week right around the corner, I wanted to share some high-intensity, bodyweight workouts with you. Monday is always my favorite day to GET MOTIVATED for the week ahead, especially with regard to my fitness. And with it being the New Year and all, many of us are probably feeling pretty inspired to get fit. Perhaps it’s Week 3 of your New Year’s resolution and you need some new workouts to keep you going and help you stick to your goals for 2018. Whatever your reason for wanting (or needing!) some #motivation, here are 3 workouts that don’t require any equipment, which means you can do them just about anywhere. I hope they’re just what you need to keep rocking your goals this year!

WORKOUT DETAILS

Follow the links below for a video tutorial of each exercise. If you have questions about any of the exercises, please let me know. I’m more than happy to suggest a modification if needed.

OUTFIT DETAILS

*** Right now, take advantage of Nike’s “Last Chance Sale” and save up to 50% off last season’s styles. It ends on 1/16, so be sure to hop on it for the best size and color selection! ***

Nike Breathe Cropped Women’s Training Tank – How fun is the cropped tank? I wasn’t sure if I was a crop-top gal… I mean, they always look cute on other people, but I wasn’t sure if one would work for me until trying this one. It’s not your “usual” crop-top because it covers most of your belly, but, at the same time, it opens on the sides, so it’s airy and totally breathable for those super sweaty workouts. I wore it for a workout with Mal the other day, and I’m hooked. It’s such a fun addition to my workout gear!

Nike Sculpt Lux Women’s Training Tights – I’m still loving these tights! You might remember from my last Nike post that they come in short sizes! Just about all of my leggings are capris because the full length ones are always too long for me. I love that these ones come in different lengths (including tall). The Nike Sculpt Lux Women’s Training Tights feature sweat-wicking, compression fabric to help you feel dry, comfortable, and supported. I’m a BIG fan and wear these babies a ton! The Nike Power Hyper Women’s Training Tights also come in short sizes. Don’t you think all brands should make short sizes?!

Nike Dri-FIT Knit Women’s Tank – I’m loving this flow-y top! The ladies at my gym often sport this sports bra + tank top look with the loose fit and wide armholes for workouts, so I’m glad I finally got a hop on the trend. This tank is super smooth and breathable, which keeps me cool and allows me to move freely during my workouts.

Nike Metcon 3 Women’s Training Shoe – I’m still loving my Metcons and wear them to every CrossFit workout. They’re similar to the Reebok Grace, but the soles are a bit more firm, so they offer a little more stability for weight lifting. The soles are flexible enough for running workouts though, so they’re the best of both worlds. Guy CrossFitter in your life? Check out the Nike Metcon 3 Men’s Training Shoe. Mal has worn them for years and loves them! He’s already talking about upgrading to the recently released Metcon 4!

Nike Dri-FIT Knit Women’s Tank – I’m obsessed with this tank and want it in every color! Seriously, it’s one of the comfiest and most flattering tank tops that I own. It has a slim fit, but it’s not skin-tight either. It just follows your body’s shape, so you can still move freely. The fabric is smooth and seamless, so it keeps you cool and doesn’t bunch or hike up as you work out. I also love the strappy design at the shoulders. I really love this one!

Once again, I’ve partnered with Brother  to show the versatility of the  Brother P-touch Label Maker , especially when it comes to fitness and gym equipment.  As always, thank you for supporting CNC! I receive quite a few questions from readers about what I eat before, during, and after workouts, so I decide to share those with you today. It changes a little bit from workout-to-workout, but I keep a general framework in mind. BEFORE (approximately 30 minutes): I typically eat a small snack made up of mostly simple carbs since they provide quick energy. Some favorites: Half of a banana or another piece of whole fruit, a protein bar, handful of raisins, or a rice cake with jam and sometimes nut butter (it just depends how hungry I am and the timing of my workout). DURING : I typically don’t consume anything during my workouts, unless they’re longer than 90 minutes, like if I’m training for a long distance race (i.e. half marathon). In that case, I’ll take an energy gel and water ev

If you’re looking for a one-stop shop to organize your digital life, check out Evernote! Here’s my Evernote review and all the great features you can use to make your thoughts, notes, and files easy to find, sort, and save.  This post is sponsored by Evernote .  Raise your hand if your digital life feels cluttered. If we were in a room, almost everyone’s hand would go up, including mine!  With so much of our lives digitized these days, it’s hard not to get overwhelmed with all the information we need to save and reference. And because computers, the internet, and living in email and calendars are relatively new to humans, we as a society are still learning good systems. If I asked you to organize a paper filing cabinet, you’d probably have a few good ideas on how to do that. But if I asked you to organize a computer hard drive, many of us get stumped on the sheer volume of files and the endless ways to sort.  The good news is there are apps that make this process more intuitiv
