working out with you is so much more fun

99% of the time Keith and I do not work out together. Keith’s first session at the gym starts at 5:30am every morning and I usually don’t start my workout until closer to 7:00am. He trains straight through the morning and usually gets his workout in right before lunch. So on Sunday when Keith asked me if I wanted to work out together I jumped at the chance. I like working out with him versus him training me because it is way more fun to be in pain with someone else! haha!

I asked him what we were going to do be doing and he said we were doing the “25 reps” workout! I love that workout! It is so much fun! For a shorter (30 minute) workout you pick 12-15 exercises and do 25 reps for each one. For a longer workout (60 minutes) you pick 24-25 exercises and do 25 reps for each one. I like this workout because you never do the same thing twice, it gets your heart rate up, and you push some serious weight! Below are the 25 exercies we chose but you can choose anything! It is entirely up to you. So use this one as a guide and then you can change it up to add in some of your favorites! (I will give you the weights I used…Keith did anywhere from 2x to 3x the weight I used)

Remember: everything is 25 reps
