I am so excited to share the second post of my MINI FITNESS SERIES! As you all know, fitness is a huge part of my life and its only natural that I share that with you all. As a part of my blog, I will share a fitness series with you at least once a month that highlights a specific workout while also highlighting some of my favorite activewear brands.
So today I’m sharing a little bit more about WHERE I workout on a daily basis, along with a killer core workout to get your abs burning!
We have been members of Bay Club San Francisco for about 4 months now and we cant imagine being members anywhere else! Prior, we were at 24 hour fitness, and Bay Clubs is such a different atmosphere I absolutely love it.
Bay Clubs is more of a lifestyle and a place where I look forward to spending time each day. We spend a lot of time in the gym, so to have full amenities is such a treat. Bay Clubs has a great community of active people and is such an uplifting atmosphere.
We love all of the amenities the club offers. They have swimming pools, basketball courts, cycling studio, full spa, a variety of group fitness classes, a gorgeous lounge, cafe (happy hour each night), a shop (hello Lululemon), shuttle and the list goes on! There is nothing missing from this club! I also love that there are many rooms and many different places to workout within the club. For instance, there is a main fitness floor, but about 7-8 different rooms that you can use anytime to either lift weights, use a cardio machine, practice yoga, pilates or crossfit. I love that if the main gym is busy, there are so many alternative places to workout and feel comfortable.
Needless to say, if you are on the hunt for a new gym I highly recommended you check out Bay Clubs. Its really the best you can get in the city.
Now for a killer core workout!
Repeat each circuit 3 times before moving on the next. Also try not to rest in between each exercise within the circuit. For added intensity, incorporate a cardio move in between circuits. I love jumping rope or rowing for 2 mins in between.
Circuit 1: complete each exercise for 1 min, then repeat circuit 3x
Crunch with weight overhead
Air bike
Plank Jack
Plank hold
Circuit 2: complete each exercise for 1 min, then repeat circuit 3x
Running man in plank position

Circuit 3: complete each exercise for 1 min, then repeat circuit 3x

Now lets talk activewear! I mixed it up a bit for this post, wearing both Lilybod leggings and Beloforte sports bra.
Lilybod has a lot of different fun legging options with fun designs and stripes. Here are a few pairs that I’m loving:
I am also a HUGE fan of Beloforte. Their Fall 17 line is TO DIE FOR. The season features a range of mauve, nude and black activewear including sports bras, tanks, leggings and sweatshirts. Looking forward to sharing this dusty rose set with you all on the blog soon!
Hope you all had a great 4th of July!
