This morning I was excited to get back to my lifting routine. After seven hours of sleep and a refreshing, healthy Coconut Peach smoothie for dinner I was energized and rested.
Unfortunately, my trainer missed my email and therefore wasn’t at the gym bright and early this morning. While my warm, cozy bed was screaming for me to come home I decided to put my muscles to good use on my own this morning. This 30 minute workout left my arms quivering in the best of ways! Even though I did it at the gym this morning, you can do it at home or in a hotel gym as long as you have heavy weights.
Since I’m travelling to Paris and Geneva for business beginning on Friday night, I will most likely reference this workout next week in the hotel gym.
I call it the 45 since you end up doing 45 reps of each exercise by the end of the workout! The final sweat is something I love to add to the end of any weight workout as it gets my heart pumping and the energy flowing!
Have a great Tuesday!

I know, I know! I’m trying to figure out how to do that!! Thanks Miz! 🙂
Looks like a great workout for traveling! I hope you have a great business trip!~
Hi Ashley! Love your blog! What do you do for the “cardio burst”? I’m just envisioning doing this at the gym and don’t want to fight for a treadmill every few minutes.
Thanks and keep up the great work. You’re a huge inspiration!
Larkin I normally do either mountain climbers, jumping jacks, or burpees!
Awesome, thanks so much!
Ashley, I’ve done this workout a few times now and it’s great. I’m intimidated by the weight room at the gym and this is the perfect alternative. Thanks so much!
Nice workout, but I’m a little concerned: Did you really just have 180 calories for dinner? That’s the calorie count from the smoothie you posted.
Definitely planning on trying this. Thanks for sharing Ashley!
Paris and Geneva?! You lucky duck! Have fun!
Awesome workout – since I am pretty much afraid of cold weather all I have been doing lately is strength training, yoga and pilates. It’s a nice change but I have to go at it with more of an “attack it” mentality than with running which I find relating. Loving the blog!
I don’t think I’d be able to move my arms after this workout! It looks like an awesome way to tone your arms 🙂 And I’m super jealous of your trip to Paris! Have so much fun!!
