Recording myself

Image
I've been fooling around with the idea of recording myself while working out (after I saw some youtubers record themselves doing insanity). Why? Because when you record yourself, for some reason it makes you more accountable and want to go all out in each movie. haha I workout by myself.. so in a way my sad phone/camera and I are kind of like workout partners. Also... this is basically my first time ever editing a video clip. It's not too bad right? hahah 1 round of Tabata is 8 cycles of 20s cardio + 10 s rest (I omitted the resting parts from the video) Int 1: Burpees Int 2: Mummy Kicks Int 3: Jump rope Int 4: Jumping jacks Int 5: Butt Kicks Int 6: Squat Jumps Int 7: High Knees Int 8: Dips I don't get feedback so I'm not sure if I should keep the 10s rests in the video.

30 minute workout routine that can burn 500 calories

The article from Shape has 5 routines that last 30 minutes each and can burn 500 calories.

Insanity is on average 40 minutes long and depending how hard you push yourself, the calories burnt ranged from 350-650. So 30 minutes to lose 500 calories sound really good to me. Shape calls this plyometric routine "jump for joy" and it is my favorite one out of their five, probably because if you try to do it as fast as you can, it might take less than 30 mins :) plyometrics, workout, gym, calories, burn, insanity, routine, fat blast, cardio,
