Hello from the steep hills of San Francisco! This workout AND activewear post is in collab with Lucy Activewear! I look forward to my weekend runs down through Crissy Field to the Golden Gate Bridge and back which is mostly pretty flat, but this weekend I braved the hills. I’ve talked about HIIT (high intensity interval training) quite a bit, but I believe in it probably more so then any other form of exercise. It really burns the most amount of calories for me in far less time and is when I really start to shed my belly fat. Hello summer bikini season!
I tried something new today and incorporated bodyweight strength training with my run. You can try this on flat ground or make it more difficult by running up and down hills. This is another way to incorporate HIIT (short, intense bursts of activity paired with quick rests) into you workout. The strength training breaks up the cardio activity which gives your body a short rest.
For that summer body 😉 try this:
- Run 1/4 mile
- 20 Squats
- Run 1/4 Mile
- 20 Push ups
- Run 1/4 Mile
- 20 Dips
- Run 1/4 Mile
- 1 min Plank
- Repeat 3x
Now for the clothes! I haven’t shopped at Lucy Activewear in a long time, but they have a ton of cute stuff right now. I love the fit and quality of their clothes. I also fell in love with my all time favorite sports bra which I will be repurchasing over and over. I’ve linked it below for you ladies!
My outfit: Orange racerback tank // Pocket Capri Legging (on sale!) // Zenergy Bra
(Jeff- thanks for being such a sport and snapping a few pics! 🙂 )
I found some seriously cute lucy pieces for you ladies, and a bunch of them are on sale! I’m loving their cute graphic tanks and a bunch of capris with all sorts of fun prints! (Trying my hardest to venture from my classic black leggings!) Here are my favorites:
TOPS: 1 (on sale) // 2 // 3 (in my cart!) // 4 (my favorite bra!) // 5 (on sale & love the graphic tanks!)
