Art of Exercise Freebie I

I've really been going through my phone apps lately to see what I can use what for, and what I can get rid of, in the case that one app performs several functions.  Workout Trainer has turned out to be my favorite exercise app as it is not only extensive, but constantly adds new stuff, and it has not only routines with pictures, video, audial(?) instructions, but it also has workout programs which will let you schedule them yourself, then give you reminders when your scheduled time is coming up!  Within the app you can set up your preferences, such as intensity of the workouts, time limits, and fitness goals; mine are set at "Intense", "1 Hour" (longest available), and "Lose Weight, Strengthen Core, Tone Muscle, and Improve Flexibility" (others include Build Muscle and Build Endurance).  Overall it's an amazing app, I would highly recommend it to everyone, and I do; you'll never get bored with it because there is so much going on, there is a community of people just like you connecting and supporting and encouraging, it acts as your memory, keeping track of what you've done, how you liked it, and your personal notes as well as a calendar reminder.  So yeah, get it!

Anywho, this post is entitled after the program that I started Tuesday.  It is 9 and a half minutes of intense workout and it goes a little something like this:

30s Skip in Place
30s Butt Kickers
30s Pogo Hops
30s Seal Jacks
15s rest
50s Plank w/Shoulder Taps (I loved these! They made me feel so strong and powerful)
15s rest
50s Full Plank w/Leg Lifts
15s rest
50s Plank w/Toe Taps
15s rest
50s Upward Plank (harder than it looks)
20s rest
50s Burpess
10s rest
50s ice Skaters (look and feel ridiculous in your living room!)
10s rest
50s Staggered Arm Spiderman Pushups:: I love these too, and while I don't really see the point of staggering the arm (isn't it harder to just keep them as they are and try to bring your knee to them? I am not here to make things easier on myself, hello!), they get really hard very quickly, but they truly make me feel like I am working my whole body.
