Winter is the time for hibernating in big comfy sweaters and drinking hot chocolate while binge watching Netflix. But when April rolls around - I'm from Charleston so summer comes early - I'm always wishing that I traded my sweaters for athletic gear. However, I am a big fan of having the best of both worlds. So here is my favorite quick and easy workout I try to do every day paired with a stretch sesh. This way I'm ready for April, and I still get to keep my big comfy sweaters.

This workout is quick and easy and also able to be changed in order to what your body needs. If I'm feeling fancy I'll increase the amount of reps I do. But I try and do this workout once in the morning, it's a great energizer, and once at night before I shower.

1 minute plank

10 pushups

30 situps

30 Russian twists

30 backwards sit ups

15 forearm dips

50 calf raises

20 donkey kicks

35 sumo squats

1 minute extended plank

And then I stretch. But honestly, it just matters as to what my body needs that day. Some days I just do all hip stretches and them some days I spend the whole time upside down. The most important thing is that you listen to your body. Whenever I don't feel creative or don't feel like thinking up a flow I just go on YouTube. Within seconds, I can find a 10 minute yoga flow which is perfect for after a workout. Also, I find a lot of great flow ideas from instagram from yogis such as @thesouthernyogi and @elle_fit. Hope this inspires you to get the best out of both worlds!
