Tuesday Turn Up



The weather is finally getting warmer (and also playing some tricks on us here in NYC)! Now is the time to really crack down and get all of your gym time in. May is the month where I start doing two-a-days… sounds fun right?! Not really, but it will all be worth it come summer (I hope).

Before work, I try to do at least 30-40 minutes worth of cardio, so that after work I can focus on lifting and toning. Meal prep is also a MUST. Since my boyfriend is a huge foodie and loves to try new restaurants, I can’t completely cut that out, but for the most part, making dinner at home during the week is something that has to be done.

If I do not have time (or am too tired) to go to the gym in the morning, then my evening gym routine will consist of 30 minutes of HIIT cardio and weight training. Some people spend hours at the gym, but I like to get in and get out. An hour at most is how long I will spend.

Since I did not make it to the gym this morning, I will be starting off my evening routine with 10-15 minutes of sprints on the treadmill (7.8-8.2), followed by 5-6 minutes on the Stairmaster. I will be focusing on arms chest and back today, anddddd some abs.

Most days I like to do a little bit of everything and target different parts of my body, but now that I am switching up my routine a bit, I am trying to focus on at least 2-3 relevant muscles a day. This way I can give the muscles I worked on the day before, some time to relax.
