This Strength Training Circuit is comprised of 5 compound exercises (utilizes legs and arms at the same time) for maximum effort and maximum burn! You will need light or moderate free weights. I used 7lbs- 10lbs. A beginner can eliminate the weights (just do the arm motions), or use light weights ( 3lbs- 5lbs). You can also modify by doing less reps (8-10 reps opposed to 15 reps) and take breaks as needed. Contact me for a personal training session if you need extra help or guidance. In the video, I lead you through the circuit one time. When you do the workout, aim to complete the circuit at least twice, or up to 4 times.

Hey Girl,
I know you’re busy, but can you spend a little more time on me this week? Legs and Arms seem to get all of your attention these days- but may I remind you of my importance? Balance, Stability, and good posture are all depending on me! I’m doing my best to prevent injury, but I’m getting complaints from the others- Pelvis, Lower Back, and Hips are worried about the future. And, Extra Fat is annoying the heck out of us all. I know I’m bitchy to work on, but you’ll like me more as we get tighter. So, please, focus on strengthening our relationship.. I promise, it will make your life much easier (and while you’re at it, eat well so that maybe I can eventually be visible!) Always remember- I’m here to support you! XOXO, Abs P.S- Jolie has a great 10 minute Core Power Workout Video. (<--- Click here.) Do it for me! Even though most of us can't see them, our Abs very much exist! Core exercises are often neglected because A. The person isn't exercising in general B. The person is exercising but avoiding too challenging of movements C. The person wants to "wait to loose the weight" first (since abs are hidden under fat anyway) Are you guilty? It's ok! You work you are core ALL THE TIME just in daily living. Any physical activity depends on stable core muscles. It's the foundation of your strength, balance, and posture! Core strength also protects your back and prevents injury. We want to focus on the core to build strength and flexibility not only to increase fitness performance, but to make our daily living easier for now and the future. Here are 3 don'ts and 3 do's for you! Don't focus on achieving a six pick - abs will develop naturally as you strengthen the core and eat properly. Don't beat yourself up if you can barely do a sit up - you must start somewhere- focus on baby steps and improvement. Don't go fast! Have control. Feel the core working. DO remember- QUALITY over QUANTITY! DO embrace the burn (that's how you know it's working!) DO this 10 minute Core Power Workout!  About 2 years ago, I left my corporate job to pursue my business Ants in the Pants, and to become a personal trainer. As a budding business woman, exercise is one of the most important things I do daily. It sets the stage for unleashing my potential!  Exercise is empowering. It strengthens my will. From there, more good things flow..

However... you must challenge yourself, you must get SWEATY, and you must stay committed! I created the Goldie Workouts to help my best friend break out of a rut.
