Fitness Blender 1000 Rep Workout: Challenging 500 Calorie Home Workout

I like the kind of routines where I know that I most certainly, unquestionably just worked out. I have tried my hand at yoga (it has it’s health perks, but it’s not really my style), and I love traditional strength training, but by far and large my favorite workouts are the ones that leave both my muscles and my lungs screaming. For me, bodyweight exercises done in quick succession with very little rest are what give me the most satisfying workouts.

1000 Repetitions sounds like a challenge…a painful one, but in a good way. This routine is intense enough to be an a cardiovascular challenge, but because of the bodyweight moves that call upon your body’s different muscle groups, it’s also great for toning. This is a no equipment home workout routine. All you need is some loose, comfortable clothing and possibly a little music to help keep you motivated all the way through 1000 reps.



Muscle Groups Targeted
• Glutes
• Hamstrings
• Quadriceps
• Upper and Lower Abdominals
• Obliques
• Biceps
• Triceps
• Chest
• Lower Back
• Calves
• Deltoids
• Rhomboids
• Outside Thighs


As the list of muscle groups targeted above indicates, this is a very comprehensive total body toning routine.

How to do this routine
It’s important to do 10-15 minutes of warm up cardio before starting this or any strength training routine to avoid injury. Once your muscles are warm, start in on this routine by doing each of the listed ten exercise for 25 repetitions. Do the entire list four times through, to make for 100 repetitions for each exercise, and a 1000 Rep Workout in total. Follow the links on the demonstration videos if you need a modification of an exercise that is harder or easier.

Take as little rest as possible between exercises. Allow yourself 1-2 full minutes of rest between sets, if necessary.

You end up doing 100 reps of each exercise in this workout; depending on your fitness level and your body’s weak points, you may be doing some of these exercises to what feels like exhaust. If you need to stop and take a break before you complete a full 25 repetitions of an exercise, stop and take a quick breather before jumping back into the routine. Do remember that doing an exercise with proper form is always going to be priority; choose the level of difficulty of each exercise that allows you to execute it correctly.

If this is too much for your current fitness level, or if you have a packed schedule that doesn’t allow for a full 60 minute workout, break this routine apart into four 15 minute (or two 30 minute) calorie blasting, metabolic revving segments by just doing one or two rounds of 25 reps at a time.

Bodyweight or lightweight high rep workouts like this one blast fat, burn a high number of calories, tone the body, and boost cardiovascular endurance. This one is also fun, delivers a good energy boost, and doesn’t require a single piece of equipment.

Getting fit doesn’t always feel like a walk in the park; the FB 1000 Rep 500 Calorie Home Workout definitely embraces that concept.

Why Open Relationships Dont Work

There’s no worse feeling out there than laying in your bed alone knowing your girlfriend is sleeping over at another guy's house. Trust me, open relationships aren’t for everyone. Like many people in their early 20s, I fell into my open relationship by way of a girlfriend who cheated on me and wanted our love to last. I was 20 years old, totally naive, and driven by the idea of appearing adult; all I had was my little apartment in the North End of Boston and a controlling girlfriend who gave me a serious case of Stockholm Syndrome. We had been together since the end of high school and her method of dictating my life was the only way I knew how to do things. During winter break, in which she was home, she cheated on me and tearfully admitted it a month later. I was brokenhearted, but as determined as she was to keep the relationship going. At the time, I thought she was the one and would stop at nothing to make sure we lasted. She suggested opening ourselves up to other pe...
