3 Minutes Left in Your Home Workout Routines

At the three minute mark…

Do you feel like this? Do you let up on your home workout routines in the final minutes? Do you call it quits JUST A LITTLE early? After all, nobody is watching. Nobody would know. You did a great job up to that point. What’s three minutes anyways? Three measly minutes. Well, over time, three minutes adds up! That could easily amount to 15-18 minutes IN JUST ONE  week (virtually an entire workout–as you know, I’m a huge advocate of the 25-30 minute workout). So, we CAN’T have that–ESPECIALLY when we are working out for such a short amount of time.

The Power of the Second Wind in Home Workout Routines

Definition of “a second wind”-

•  relief from general feelings of distress that often accompany the early stages of exercise;
• a feeling of new energy that allows you to continue to do something after you had begun to feel tired;
• the return of ease in breathing after exhaustion caused by continued physical exertion;

I don’t know about you, but I am on a CONSTANT search for my second wind during almost every single one of my home workout routines. When I find it, the heavens open, the angels sing, and the calories FLEE! Ha! In todays’ video, I will give you my top recommendation to help you find your second wind and SMASH the last few minutes of your home workout routines. P.S.
