Hi guys,
As I mentioned in the video, I went to play tennis with Frederick and a friend of mine. I haven’t played tennis for a very long time and I never was an ace at it, but it was a lot of fun and amazing cardio. I must say that my workouts are really paying off, because I was able to run around the tennis court for over an hour without any problems at all. The only problem I have is my technique – I don’t even know how to hold the racket properly :) It is kind of funny, because I know that I am in a good enough shape to do all kinds of sports, but because I haven’t been really doing anything else other than my workouts, I am totally clumsy when it comes to sports. The good news is that I love sports and I don’t mind embarrassing myself :) I have noticed that there are 4 types of people. First there are the people who want to get in shape before they would consider trying any kind of sport. Second, the people who play sports for exercise and as a way to get in shape. Third, people who are just not interested in any sports activity what so ever, and finally people who play sports just for the fun of it. Frederick and I fall into the last category – where do you fit in?
Today I did one of my older workouts so click here, to checkout the full description of the routine with pictures. It is an interval training workout so you will need your interval timer. I am using my cool Gymboss Interval Timer. In Malta I was using my gymnastic rings for the pull ups and now I am using my pull up bar from Ultimate Body Press that you can find here. My pull up bar is becoming an important part of my workouts moving towards the summer.
Tomorrow I am planning on doing a new workout, so make sure to stop by and check it out. Don’t forget that the summer is going to be here very very soon and you have to get in shape (some of you promised in the comments). Watch how much and what you are eating and be consistent with your exercise. We are really going to push hard from here on out :)
Enjoy your workout, and see you tomorrow!
Zuzana.
Hi, I have a question about pull ups.
What would be the proper form for keeping hands on a pull up bar (towards yourself or away from body)?
Probably each is working another muscle group, so I would like to know what do you or others recommend?
Which workout is it? The link isn’t working.
well, unfortunately that new pull up bar doesn’t work with my door frames. i just bought one and nope not helpful at all. i guess they were build to an american standard that does not necessarily work in europe (especially not older buildings). are there any other alternatives? apart from getting some nails and hammering it to the wall?
Hi chris,
I have a similar Pull-up bar and it doesn’t work for my USA trim either. It’s designer presumed that it would be used on a door with trim less than 3 inches high.

I am thrilled you see you back in such tip top form. Unfortunately out summer is now a dim memory as we slip into Autumn. But next summer is coming around again. I want to be at my goal weight by then.
I am only including the link because seeing things like this reinforces my determination to lose weight, become as fit and strong as I can be, and be a good example for my own children. What a waste of a life.

Apparently there are many more men and women out there who embrace this way of life. To me that is not life.
Anyway, Zuzana and Frederick, keep up the good work.
I don’t even know what to say about this….
I don’t know what is worse…this woman, the journalist that gives her celebrity or her community that props her up.
30 medics to deliver an at risk pregnancy?
Men sending her food?
Just when you thought you had seen and heard everything.
Good grief that is really awful. Does t count as suicide if you are killing yourself with food?
This is like saying..well since I have been overwieght and failed at the diet why not just hmmm…eat every thing I want and get fat as anything so I can just eat eat eat and just break a world record.
Kid to fat mama: Ma when will you be a your wieght you want and then not have to eat so much any more ..(cause were hmm hungry!)
fat mama to kid: well it wont be to long but I am still not fat enough(more excuse to eat more) hmmm I made to the electric wheel chair and just as soon I am bed ridden and have to be lifted with a crain Ill be done.
Sorry Fredrick but its true I cant help but saying it either and she would take it as a compliment if she reads it..and add it to her blogg that she runs for men to watch her chow down.
Ps..if you dont want to post this I guess I wont see it but Ill just be sad and forced to eat out of rejection.
What a choice! Sounds very costly and limiting. I would miss the play with my child! She should watch the old movie with Johnny Depp and Leonardo DiCaprio called What’s eating Gilbert Grape…

Hi, Zuzana! It’s the first time I write here to you. Just to say thanks from Mexico, your videos and entries are very inspiring, I really love the interval training. Anyway, you forget to add the link to the original workout (where it says “click here” there is no link). I’ll apreciate if you put it right. Thanks again, an good look.
Hi Zuzana!
I was thinkin since summer is closing in maby you can make another sumer fit program for us ^_^ pls
P.S.your workouts are the best XD
I was curious…do you guys do anything else other than work on your website (career wise). I love what you guys do and the both of you are such an inspiration. I had asked in the previous workout, what kind of camera do you guys use? I love how awesome the quality of both your pictures and videos come out. Oh by the way, I got my Gymboss Interval Timer in the mail last week and absolutely love it! Thank you so much for all your awesome workouts. I have been doing your workouts since the beginning of March and am starting to see results already.
Best,

Hi,
“Click Here” is not working and I love this workout, is perfect for me but I don’t know the intervals, I tried to find it in the Daily Workouts Archives but I think it does not have the same name, where can I find the discription of the workout? Thank you very much. I love all your exercises and you look amazing!!!

Hi Zuzana, the ‘click here’ does not appear to be a hyperlink for the description and pictures of the workout. Can you assist?
