Hooray for no early shift today!!!
It felt so good to go to the gym early to work out rather than to work. I miss my early morning workouts! They set my day in motion and give me a great burst of energy first thing in the morning. Yes, sometimes it can totally suck to work out before the sun comes up, but on the whole, working out first thing in the morning is where it’s at for this girl!
30 Minute Treadmill Interval Workout
When Ryan and I arrived at the gym, I hopped on the treadmill and decided to complete a run/walk interval workout.
I wasn’t feeling all that motivated to push myself when I started this workout, so I began with simple run/walk intervals, but as I began to wake up, I kicked it up a notch and pushed myself at the end. The last two intervals had me breathing heavy!
I rounded things out with my 8 minute ab workout and some stretching.
Breakfast
Breakfast this morning filled me right up!
I began with a base of one cup of cottage cheese (I love Friendship 1 percent) and topped it with a sliced frozen banana, slightly thawed frozen blueberries and raspberries, raw oats and chia seeds.
All mixed up!
Now it’s time to take Miss Sadie off for her morning walk before heading into work.
I’ll see ya after lunch!

Nice workout this morning! You’re breakfast looks great 😉
Love this workout!
i’ve seen that pinterest fails post before…cracks me up every time. we’re attempting one of them at my job for a craft this summer actually – i’m not too hopeful!
Yay for no early shift! That reminds me – did you see the video I posted on your Facebook page about getting up early/alarm clocks by comic Gary Gulman? I only ask bc my Facebook’s been weird so I’m not sure it actually posted the link, but anyways it’s hilarious!
I just did the sweat it out bootcamp from that earlier post-loved it! Got a good sweat on! I will try this treadmill one soon!
Excellent workout! Random Question: Do you eat before you workout in the morning?? Is it counterproductive not to?? If I go to the gym, I usually eat a small handful of peanuts (they’re the only thing I’ve found that keeps my stomach from growling halfway through the workout) but if I’m running from home, I just get up and go. Is that a bad idea??
That treadmill workout looks insane, you’re crazy! In a good way of course 😉
Love your workouts! I screen cap each one and save them on my phone for future reference. Thanks!:)
Hi Julie!
I love your blog and the wonderful workouts that you post! I was wondering what program you custom make them on that makes them fun and colorful before you post them? Thanks!
Your breakfast looks like the perfect way to fill up but stay cool! I am getting a little bored with smoothies so I’ll have to give this a try!
Mmmmmm that cottage cheese mix looks and sounds awesome
Love the mix of frozen fruit! I’m LOVING all the fresh fruit these days.
I love your running workouts. They have really helped me with speed work. In fact, I ran a 10K PR last week!
Did this workout this afternoon during my break! Great quick workout! Thank you 🙂

I plan to lose around 25 pounds and finding out for the interval program. Your treadmill program interests me, including breakfast recipe. I’ll try both.
