Dying to Live is really all about "living"

I started this blog to help others die to the things that are keeping them from truly living. I talk about everything from taking every thought captive to making healthy choices when eating. I have been on this journey for over 15 years now and finally decided it's time to share it with others. Come join me and learn why we must die in order to truly LIVE!

Remember those cookies you ate???

Ready to blast fat in 24 minutes...I did this one this morning after my weight workout and TRUST ME...it really works.

Follow this plan twice a week, in between your strength workouts.  Do each exercise as many times as you can for 45 seconds.  Rest for 15 to 30 seconds between each exercise.  Take a 60 second break after the entire sequence, then return to the first exercise and repeat the whole circuit.  During week one, do six rounds.  Add one round each week until you've reached 10.

STATIC SQUAT IN-AND-OUT JUMP
Stand with your feet less than hip-width apart, hands behind your head, back straight.  Lower into a squat position.  Keeping your knees bent and staying low, jump and spread your legs so that you land in a squat.  Jump back to start.  Continue alternating as fast as possible.

MOUNTAIN CLIMBER
Assume a pushup position with your arms straight and body in a straight line.  Drive your right knee toward your chest, then return to the starting position and repeat with your left leg.  Continue alternating legs as fast as possible, maintaining control.

LUNGE JUMP
Stand with feet together, elbows bent 90 degrees at your sides.  Lunge forward with your right foot.  Jump straight up as you thrust your arms forward, elbows still bents.  Switch legs in midair, like a scissor, and land in a lunge with your left leg forward, arms at your sides.  Continue alternating legs.

SQUAT THRUST
Stand with feet hip-width apart, arms at your sides.  Bend your knees, put your hands on the floor, and extend both feet back so you're in a pushup position.  Keep your back straight and core braced.  Jump your feet back up to your hands, then stand.  Repeat as fast as possible, maintaining control.
