Hi Everyone,
First of all – thank you for all of your ideas for the workout names. We were laughing our heads of when we were reading your comments :) Some of the names even gave me new ideas for workouts that would match with them. Today’s workout is called Guns and Buns because it’s not brutal enough to call it ”Zuzana wants me dead workout” :) and you will indeed work your guns and buns in this routine. Texas Cindy came up with the name – thanks! :) Keep them coming guys, you have great ideas.
I did this workout for the first time on October 29 and my personal best from that day was 19 minutes and 48 seconds. Today I managed to beat my old personal record and I have completed all 6 rounds in 15 minutes and 16 seconds. Can you beat this? :) Let me know.
There were 6 rounds of the following 3 exercises:
1. Cross Over Lunges – 10 reps total
Step forward and across your standing leg into a lunge. Stay in the lunge for 3 short bounces.
Bring the back knee up and to the side, then lunge back across the standing leg again and get into the starting position. This counts as one rep. Continue the second rep on the other side
2. Santana Zuzana Push Ups – 6 reps
Squat down and put your hands on the ground in front of you. Jump your feet back and get into a plank. From the plank position, bring your body down until it almost touches the ground and then perform one push up. Remember to keep your hands underneath your shoulders, and your shoulders down and away from your ears. Keep your abs tight and don’t arch your back.
Rotate your upper body into a side plank and place your hand behind your head. Try to keep your body in one straight line. Bring your upper elbow down towards the hand of the supporting arm and then reverse the movement and get back into the plank. Jump your feet forward towards your hands. Push off of your feet and rotate the whole body towards the opposite direction as you jump up. Push off of your feet and rotate the whole body towards the opposite direction as you jump up.
3. Side Lunge Jump – 5 reps on each leg
Start in the side lunge position as shown on the picture. Try to get your thigh parallel to the ground. Don’t let your knee reach over your toes. Keep your back straight, chest up and shoulders down.
Push off of the standing leg and jump up, bringing the heel of the other leg towards your butt. Land softly on the ball of your foot and return to the starting position. This is one rep. Complete 5 reps on each leg.
My Workout Clothes
Many people have asked me about my workout clothes and that’s why I am sharing with you today what I’m wearing and what kind of clothes I prefer. Maybe it is because I am young or maybe because I am Czech :), but I just really like clothes that are sexy and make my body look good. I find it really hard to find pants that make my butt look nice. Lululemon pants are still the best in my opinion, but my new pants from Adidas can easily compete with them. The cut is really important. I think we all agree that round butt looks better than flat butt. I am not talking about size – I am talking about the shape. I think that most girls butts look best in pants that have a short seam going from the crotch and ends at the hip level.
Check out my new gloves.
Too cool for school :)
Hey Zuzana What about your tops that is what I was really wanting to know about. I’m like you I like to look good in my clothes. But your tops that you wear I can’t seem to find anywhere. You have some that look like they hook in the front and have a razorback. Please let me know where to purchase them. Also I am having problems everyday getting on your website until late at night. I really miss being able to get on your website during the day to workout. You are a great inspiration to me and my family. Keep up the good work.
Hello Zuzana,
First of all you’r amazing =) I really love all your workouts and I always try to do them. Thank you for sharing. I need to know if there are such a thing like exercises to make your butt bigger, I am 115 lbs. and thin complexion and I really need to firm up my butt but also will like to make it rounder and better. I am Thin and need to really tone my entire body.
Please let me know take care and keep up the great work.
Hi
I want to ask you, can I have your workout pics in good quality for wallpaper? :)
Thanks!
Forgot to mentioned that the first thing I do in the morning when I wake up is to go to my computer to look for your new workout you are very inspiring to me. Greetings from Austin
Hi Zuzana,
What kind of athletic shoes are you wearing ? I’m looking for new workout shoes, and I like the heel tread on your shoes, they look very supportive for cross training.
Thanks,
Sxean
Zuzana-
Freakin cute workout outfit. You sport all of it well:) Thanks for the workout can’t wait to do it tomorrow. Have a good day:>)
Zuzana,
Thank you for your new workout. I’be been watching your workout for about 6 months now. I tried to start, but i fail. I bought special CD’s to workout at home (save money instead of going to gym) but i did only 2 out of 5 CD… i started one of our workouts–but then i failed. Then i’ve stared again and failed to continue again. Now I am afraid to start. Now, i desperatley need motivation and i just dont know how to start. Moreover, i am afraid to start because i feel that i will fail myself again and again… i am embaraced to write this out in public, but i feel if i do, you might advice where should i start and…. perhaps that will help me.
I am not overweight, but I am not in my best shape as well. I am very busy with work, school and family, church activities etc…. Sometimes i feel beautiful sometimes i feel discused even by looking at myself. I am tierd of this.
Thank you for listening.
Aduh…i really like your pants . Wonder if they already come out here in Indonesia.
Yup, I must agree, those new workout pants sure do make you Butt loook fantastic. :)
“Yes, yes, yes!” lol too cute!
You modelled the clothes well – Given how many people subscribe to you on youtube, and how many of the tech guys on there get loads of freebies, I hope some of the sports companies throw some free kit at you for training. It would certainly be a good bit of advertising for them.
By the way, how about inluding hanging leg raises in one of your routines – I find them a brilliant ab workout.
