21 Day Fix moves

I typically workout six days a week. I'm one of those people who genuinely enjoy working out or at least how I feel after a workout. My problem is that I tend to get bored fairly easily with a workout. So since I recently finished Beachbody's Insanity program, I have been sort of drifting through different workouts. This week I went back to my roots with the 21 day fix program. I'm also doing a five day clean eating challenge meant to boost my metabolism and cleanse my body. I will write another post about that later.
I think it's funny how when you change workouts, your body can become so sore no matter how good of shape you're in. My body has hurt this week and I've loved every minute of it (well most of it). The soreness reminds me that it's working, that the exercises are changing my body. I like that feeling. So overall I've enjoyed going back and doing this program again. It's been a nice change of pace and obviously is doing my body some good.
I thought I'd share a couple of my favorite moves from the 21 Day Fix. For those who are t familiar with the program, it's basically a workout and nutrition plan that I pair with Shakeology. The nutrition plan comes with containers that help teach you portion control and what foods you should be eating every day. It makes eating healthy a lot easier. You can click on my website for more details if interested.

Here are a couple of my favorite moves:

1)Oblique Side bends:  stand with feet hip width apart, using weight in right hand bend at the waist and pull up. Put your hand on your side so you can feel your obliques tighten. Do for 1 minute on each side. 

2)Plié  squats with upright row:  Stand with feet a little further then shoulder width apart, toes pointed out. As you go down in a squat, pull your arms up. Don't let your knees go over your toes. Do for 1 minute.
