Yesterday, in honor of my 30th birthday Keith put me through a 30X30 workout! 30 exercises all at 30 reps. (for those of you who are new readers…my husband is a fitness trainer and has been for almost 10 years!)
So without further ado…here is the 30X30 workout for any of you who want to do this: Remember every exercise is 30 reps and then move on the the next exercise. Everything is body weight unless otherwise noted.

Intense. I probably couldn’t do 30 sets of any of those exercises!
What are: suicide planks? bird dogs?
What a nice “gift” from Keith! 🙂 Looks super intense!
I’m so excited to do this tomorrow!!! It was so fun talking to you last night. 🙂
I wish Keith were here to make my workouts for me every day. I need some inspiration lately. I’m bored…
It was so fun talking to you!! hehe! 🙂
Dang girl! That is an awesome workout!! Can’t wait to try it out 🙂
What a great way to start your birthday- with a rockin’ workout!
**Note to self…never hire Keith as my trainer, especially for a birthday workout.
I know! My workout partner turns 35 on Monday and we are both a little nervous!
Holy wow thats an intense workout. Whats Keith going to make you do when you turn 40? 🙂
DANG GIRL! Happy birthday huh? I hope he was sweet to you too!
Oh he was….he surprised me with daimond round stud earrings. I was thrilled, shocked and incredibly happy!! 🙂
WOW!! What a great birthday present!!
wow! What a birthday present! haha
happy birthday!!! maybe i’ll save this for when i turn 30 this summer 😉
Damn. This looks amazing… and hard! I’m definitely trying this one! Tomorrow! And I’ll report back… I may even have one of my clients give this a go. mwahahaha!
Katie is doing it today!! haha! I love that we are all so hard core!
How long did this take you??
I did a 10 minute warm up on the bike and then the workout took me about 50 minutes.
But we were moving! 🙂
My husband did it with all his clients too and they (aside from hating me) did it in about an hour. But they didn’t do the bike warm up…they started on the stairs.
