Day 15 of 21 Day Challenge: Post Workout Routine
I have a hot tub in my backyard, and I find that my workout is perfectly complimented by a delightful dip in the spa right after I hiit it. It’s also a really good motivator to work extra hard in those last view exercises when you find yourself fading a bit. Plus, it’s been so nice outside that you aren’t freezing the second you step back out of the hot tub. What are some other good post-workout things that people do? A face mask? Hopping right into the shower? Collapsing onto the floor for a full body stretch? A smoothie?

Modifications:- The floor was not liking my jumping around so instead of tuck jumps I did high knees, and regular squats instead of squat jumps.
- Wasn’t feeling the burpees, so I stuck with high knees.
- Not a modification, but I loved the push-up jacks – the momentum from hopping my feet in and out really helped with the push-up part.
- I’ve been feeling kind of “blah” the past couple of days, partially the reason for those motivational slogans yesterday – they were a little bit needed. What’s a good way to snap out of a workout funk?
- I can’t believe it’s the last week of the challenge, it’s gone by way too fast.
