WORKOUT OF THE WEEK:

Be sure to warm up first. 
I just did a sample of each exercise.
It is a core burn out  routine to do at the end or part of your own workout.
Do 3- 5 rounds, 30 seconds each exercise with as little rest as possible


Using the cheapest home piece of equipment ever! Paper plates. :)

Pikes
Hand walks - forward and backwards
Plank position leg in and out slides
Arm slides - alternating left and right
Arm Forward Slides -  alternating left and right
Supine Hamstring slides

RECIPE OF THE WEEK for adults:
Chocolate Almond Poached Pears
I can't take credit for this, so check out the link for the recipe. YUM! 


RECIPE OF THE WEEK for kids:
Chocolate covered pumpkin seeds

Perfect for this time of the year

Take 1 large square of 85% cocoa chocolate
1 tsp coconut oil and melt the 2 together.
 Add 1 tsp of coconut flour, pour in seeds and mix til covered. 
Chill in fridge for at least 1 hour and then eat.

EQUIPMENT OF THE WEEK:
Paper Plates :) 

SUPPLEMENT OF THE WEEK:
Fish Oil
I just got done reading how many of our diets are deficient in Omega-3's, which can cause a whole host of issues including inflammation and poor recovery from workouts. One way to balance our Omega 6 and Omega 3 intake is with fish oil. I recommend investing in a high quality brand without fillers (cheap ones can also make you burp!)
