Work It Wednesday: 12 Days of Fitness with Tribesports

It's time to get into the Christmas spirit!

Yes, Tribesports has done it again with a 12 Days of Fitness Challenge!

Just like the Christmas song, the 12 days of fitness is an accumulating Challenge in which you start day 1 with 1 exercise and finish on day 12 with a circuit of 12 exercises! 

I don't know about you, but I think I'll start to really feel it on day 4...

Work It Wednesday: Track Your Training with Tribesports & a Full Body Dumbbell Workout

Tribesports has a great new feature that allows you to track your training. You can even save different sessions as "workouts" & then go back to them at any time. I don't know about you, but as someone who never seems to get more than 10 minutes in at a time (if I'm lucky), being able to pick up where I left off or just a few that I really need to work on, is perfect!

And with all the talk of lifting that I've heard lately, here's a Full Body Dumbbell Workout for you that can be done at home or at the gym.

Don't forget to track your progress!

Tribesports: Rugged Maniac Workout

Ever wonder if you've got what it takes to complete one of the many obstacle mud runs that seem to be popping up everywhere this time of year? You know the ones I'm talking about; Warrior Dash, Tough Mudder, Spartan Race & Rugged Maniac to name a few.

Well just in case you've been seriously debating on trying one out (or you need a quick refresher for one coming up soon), I've got something to share with you.

Head on over to Tribesports & take the challenge for the Rugged Maniac Obstacle Strength Workout. Successfully "take" this challenge & be entered into the Rugged Maniac Competition. (Don't forget to check out the TOS.)

"This workout has been put together with a specific goal in mind - to efficiently build your strength so that you can quickly and easily move your own bodyweight around the common obstacles you will encounter at these races."

As of right now, I don't have any of these runs planned this summer. But, I'm really digging the superset workout (you can find a breakdown of what each superset does here). I figure if I am able to squeeze one in somewhere this year, I should be good to go!

 Train hard - Race easy!

 

Work It Wednesday: Tribesports

With all the fitness craze going on, it's tough to find the websites that work for you. I don't count calories or lift, but I do like a little challenge. Preferably ones that are realistic for me to actually finish being a busy SAHM.

That's where Tribesports comes in.

"We’re going to make a bold statement. 

We believe that Tribesports will make you do more sports.

Whether you’re a novice or a pro, we think seeing your friends sports activity, and sharing yours will make you want to be more active and do more sports.

We think that you are probably sportier than you think you are, and maybe just sometimes you need that nudge to get out there to exercise."

One of my favorite groups I've discovered is "Get Fit Without Joining a Gym". There is literally 1000's (if not more) of great tips of how to exercise effectively without spending a lot of money. 

And then there's the challenges. My first one was 25 squats a day for 7 days. I'm thinking either 50 crunches a day for 7 days or a 1 minute plank will be my next choice(s). 

And after a little bit of clicking, I've also managed to discover a Sexy Legs Workout & a few recipes. Just don't ask me how, because I'm still fairly new to this & I only have the slightest clue to what I'm doing. But of course I had to share since I'm currently obsessed with this awesome site!

Some of the reasons we think by using Tribesports, you’ll do more sports:

• Seeing your friends’ sports activity motivates you to get out there and do sport. Seeing other people exercise is contagious - it’s a bug that will hook you and make you want to do it too.
• Getting encouragment and advice from sports people like you is reassuring, its addictive, and it makes you want to do more.
• Taking Challenges in a supportive, friendly competitive environment helps you keep motivated and pushes you to try new things.
• Telling someone you’re going to do something by hitting the Challenge take button provides that bit of accountability that will see you succeed with it.
• The fun of sharing advice with sports people around the world is incredibly rewarding, and keeps you wanting to grow your knowledge by trying new sports, and pushing yourself a little more than you would otherwise.
