There’s nothing like a cardio day that is actually FUN! There are some days I don’t want to spend time inside a gym or when I don’t want to leave my home. That doesn’t mean you can’t get a great workout right in your living room or in the back yard!
Gym Style Details:
Top & Pants: Lululemon
Shoes: Nike Pegasus
Tip of the Day: HIIT vs. SMIT. So, I’m sure by now you’ve heard of high intensity interval training aka HIIT, but are you familiar with SMIT? SMIT or supramaximal interval training is seemingly very similar to HIIT with one main difference. Both styles involve short bursts of high intensity training; in HIIT, these bursts are followed by a low to moderate intensity recovery phase, but in SMIT are followed by complete rest periods. The duration of the recovery/rest interval is determined by the intensity of the burst of intense exercise. While both styles are very beneficial, a 2013 study from the European Journal of Sport Science suggested SMIT is more effective in burning fat and increasing physical performance, such as endurance. Personally, I’ve been incorporating SMIT style without even realizing it, and think a balance is what will work best for me.

    Hi Lauren, I just paid for your ab and cardio workout and it even says no equipment cardio and ab circuit on the top of sellfy website but when I download, it brings up your back and biceps workout from yesterday. Help! Did I do something wrong?
