Hello Friends!
You might be thinking… great… another workout video on Steemit, but hear me out! I’m sure that I’m not the only one who struggles to find the motivation to workout. Honestly, I’d rather be spending time on Steemit or watching Netflix.
Que up the Lazy Girl Workout…
Where we don’t Netflix and Chill… we Netflix and Crunch.
In this workout, you’ll find a list of super approachable exercises that will give you a good workout, but aren’t SO crazy and intense that you decide to skip them. Think I’m joking about the whole Netflix and Crunch thing? Seriously people, turn on your favorite show while you are doing these exercises! It will make the time go by faster and you won’t even feel like you working out.
Most of these exercises are things you are probably familiar with… but please watch the video for a live example.
This is a No Burpee Zone!!
-Plank
-Down Dog with Leg Pumps
-Butt Kicks
-Jump Squats
-Lunges
-Basic Crunch
-Bicycle Crunch
-Bridge Lifts
-Bridge Lifts with Leg Extensions
-Scissor Kicks
-Oblique Plank
-Mountain Climbers
-Donkey Kicks
-Down Dog with Leg Pumps
There is Only One Rule…
Part of the “Lazy Girl Way” is that I’m not even going to tell you how many reps to do! I only ask ONE thing… that you do the exercise until you feel the burn, and then do five more. This really leaves a lot of room for you to approach this workout in whatever way works best for you. If you want to go easy on the reps, and it takes you longer to feel the burn – go for it! If you want to be in and out super-fast though… then hit it hard so you feel that burn faster – do five more and you’re done.
Even though this is called a Lazy Workout… if you don’t feel a burn… you aren’t going to see results.
Sometimes You Just Need to Get Started
The point of doing a workout like this, is to break down the barriers that are holding you back from just starting. Sometimes the idea of going out for a run or hitting it hard at the gym can make us just choose to sit on the couch instead. This workout requires no equipment and you can even do it while catching up on your favorite shows… so it’s a lot easier to say YES and start working out.
If you are feeling all amped up after doing a round of these exercises… feel free to take a short break and do the whole circuit again! Who knows, maybe you’ll find a little extra fire. If not though… you can still feel good about the fact that you did one round of exercises and got in a great workout.
What Did You Think?
I am no physical trainer… just a “lazy girl” trying to motivate herself to work out more regularly and hopefully encourage a few other people to do the same. If you are interested in seeing more Lazy Girl Workouts in the future, let me know in the comments below!
Ps… Despite the name, this could be a great workout for both guys and gals!

hahahahaha this is indeed a lazy girls workout!
Though any work out is better than none!
I just challenge really tough or huge guys to wrestling matches once a week and put my life on the line. It keeps my six pack and ripped body in primo shape ;-)>
I am really starting to like you BTW.
Aww your comment just made my night!! 😊 Also, I’m glad you got a kick out of this video. I feel like my favorite posts end up being the ones where I pause and ask myself... “Is this too weird/crazy to post?” Hahah
I bet you kick those guys asses by the way.
haha yes I did enjoy it and though I was like man she is pretty squishy, yet she still looks good.
Honestly as long as ur healthy and happy thats all that matters. You seem to be doing just fine.
As for my challenges yes so far I haven't lost in 15 years. I just got challenged by a navy seal a couple weeks ago and beat him twice. Was exhilarating, I have a video of it and plan to start a "Friday night fight night" on Steemit and start posting some of my matches!
You should definitely start posting some of your matches! That would be pretty crazy to watch!
Squishy is definitely a word every girl wants to be called. 🙄 haha Honestly though, I have gained some weight lately and am trying to get back on track. I figure even started small will hopefully get me going in the right direction again.
ahahaha yes well I wasn't trying to woo you and I also pre qualified squishy by saying you still look good. Being soft especially when ur a chick is cool ;-)>
All good my friend. 👍🏻

This is great!! Ive always wanted Netflix to make me more buff. Can the next series include you actually scrolling Steemit while working out? That would be awesome!!

Her muscle is lacking in the pix
Hey... be nice! As I stated in the video, I’m trying to get better about working out - so making comments about how my body looks is pretty insensitive.
I guess it's better than then saying "That's one sexy armpit. "
Small favors really.
