I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving and enjoyed their share of good food! We had a nice holiday (more to come on that soon!) and today we are taking it easy, enjoying leftovers, putting the Fall decorations away and bringing out the Christmas ones! But, before I do anything, I’m making sure to fit in a good workout to burn off all of those delicious calories I ate yesterday. I’m planning to have my in-laws do a wod (workout of the day in CrossFit lingo) with my husband and I, too, since they are here. It should be fun!
So, instead of doing my traditional Friday Favorites post, I thought posting a new home CrossFit workout to burn off all of those calories you consumed yesterday was more appropriate. This way, you won’t feel guilty about how much you ate!
Anyone can do this workout, so if you have family staying with you, encourage them to do it with you! All you need is a little space, comfy workout clothes, shoes and water. Be sure to warm up for 5-10 minutes (run, squats, jumping jacks, push ups, etc), along with a few stretches before beginning the workout. Have fun!
Questions:
If you did the workout, how did it go? Did you do it with anyone?
Were you able to fit in a workout on turkey day or the day before?
Glad you’ve been enjoying the holiday weekend w/ your loved ones! I took a nice long walk on the treadmill the day after Thanksgiving. It was nice.
Have a great Saturday
<3
Nice! I hope you had a wonderful weekend!
Looks like a great workout – I love count down workouts!!
Thanks, I love them, too!
Great workout! I think I’m going to try it this week! 🙂 I’ll let you know how it goes.
Thanks! I look forward to hearing how it goes!
I tried looking up the “slap plank” on crossfit’s website but couldn’t find it. Could you describe that exercise? Thanks!
Hi Amy, the slap plank is holding a regular plank on your hands (not forearms) and taking one arm and “slapping” it on the side of your thigh, alternating arms while holding your body straight. I hope that helps! Also, Kim did a great demo of it a while back on her blog (http://day-with-kt.com/).
Okay, sounds good – thank you! I just wrote all of your home WOD’s on index cards and I’m pumped to try a little CrossFit 🙂
Awesome!! Let me know how they go!
