Humpday Booty Burner
Sometimes, late at night, the Pilot and I will look each other in the eyes and we know.
Froyo.
“Do you want to go, or you want me to?”
Thank goodness BTO is open late, aaaaand they have an awesome variety of dairy-free flavors and tons of toppings. I think we’ve mastered the art of making each other’s favorite froyo- while the Pilot likes his to resemble pie as closely as possible (vanilla or cinnamon froyo with cherries and graham crackers), I prefer a sampler of the dairy-free flavors with chocolate chips, some berries and hot peanut butter.
When I would read about bloggers going to Pinkberry or Menchie’s all the time, I used to be kind of jealous 😉 Now that I’ve found a close froyo place with dairy-free options, I’m making up for lost time.
When I got home, I put out the call on Facebook to see if you would like a booty burner or ab burner for today.
It was such a close one, I decided to go with booty. It is humpday, after all. I promise to get an ab burner up soon, too!
Hope you enjoy this little workout quickie.
A couple of notes:
-As always, check with a doc before making any fitness changes. Honor your body and your injuries
-Warm up for about 5 minutes before starting the video
-I filmed it in one take, with the exception of the last set because my Flip ran out of room. A of couple bloopers occur.
-Sore city today!
When you try it, please leave a comment and let me know what you think and if you’d like more of these in the future <3
xoxo

I am off to work, so I will try this tonight. I love the video! It is like having a workout DVD and we can do the whole workout with you! I love it! Maybe that will be your next project – Youtube channel full of workouts we can do with you. Can’t wait to feel the burn. Thanks Gina!
I love this idea! A youtube workout channel…all about it. Trying it tonight!
i usually don’t do the videos but a) this sucked in (in a good way) b) you had a baby MONTHs ago? c)Pinkberry is my crack. shout out to pinkberry across the street from the vertigo sky lounge in downtown chicago! post-dinner-post-drink froyo is the best:0 love weekends in the city!!! too bad i can’t afford a place with a big enough closet and parking spots for our babies downtown hee hee hee
Ooh I am TOTALLY doing this this afternoon! I like the Pilot’s froyo choice… cinnamon and graham crackers are where it’s at!
Love the video. I’m actually off to the gym now, and I’m sure you’ll have my biscuits burning.
how’d it go?!
Great workout! I love these little quickies!!
Just did this and it was awesome!! Can’t wait for the ab burner one!! 🙂
okay, I just wanted to say that I’m so sore from doing this earlier today. 🙂
BOOM!!
I love these videos! I’m going to do it at the gym today – you’re the best, thank you for putting so much effort into it!!!
Just found your blog today, thanks to Iowa Girl Eats…
This was killer! The perfect supplement to my easy jog. Thanks!
I love froyo! It’s my favorite dessert! 🙂 I can’t wait to try the booty burner!
more like RUMPDAY *kneeslapper*. can’t wait to try this, your effort to make these videos is greatly appreciated!
I really appreciate that you post yourself doing these videos (bloopers and all!) You can tell you put effort into creating these workouts and makes them seem much more doable.
Great video! You are so encouraging! 🙂 Gonna do this tonight after work for sure.
I am burning!!!
I wanted a full body workout today, so I did the Humpday Booty Burner and the Killer Arm Workout from the Fitness page. Now everything is burning!! I loved the booty burner because it was hard but now impossible.
Thanks for all the great workouts!
whoo hoo! i’m so glad you liked it!
And, cue froyo craving. Can never get enough 🙂
Oh, love this booty burner! I always need extra motivation to work out my booty…and my goal is to create a little extra oomph back there:) Definitely will be trying this out later! I think I’m the only blogger who doesn’t like frozen yogurt!
I love the video and will be doing this workout later today. It looks tough! I also got the impression that you would be great at fitness videos! Any plans???
thank you! it’s something i would like to do eventually, but for now, i’ve been in the works developing a new workout style and unique training method
Love this idea for you and I would totally do the fitnessista workout!
thank you!
Oh my word! Lots of burning! Great 5work mins. I bet I will bet be sore tomorrow. Thanks as always!
<3!
What brand/style are the shoes that you are wearing in the video? They are cute!
thank you! they’re nike frees
What I like about this is that it’s short and focused. It still allows me to design what I want for my workout, since I would basically tag it onto whatever lifting or cardio I had planned. It would be cool to have a series of these that I can cobble together however I want. Thanks so much for your work!
that makes me so happy! glad you enjoyed 🙂
Your first 2 sentences seriously made me laugh. I just recently discovered that there’s a Menchies closer to me than I thought (still 30 minutes away, but I seriously thought nothing like that existed in a one hour radius). I honestly JUST discovered this fact out 2 days ago, and now it’s all I can think about. Let’s just say I begged the husband to take me their on Friday – sold!
I cannot wait to try all the dairy-free options. Now I’m secretly going to be eyeing what my hubby puts on his to see if I would have been able to make him one without him there 😛
Random comment but your sweet potato chili was a hit with my fam! Thanks for the recipe xx
i’m having that for dinner tonight and lunch tomorrow 🙂 so happy they liked it!
Would this also help with my thighs? My thighs have always been an issue for me. What can I do to get them a little smaller?
this will definitely help tone thighs. it’s a mix of strength training, cardio (alt intensities) and clean eats

So excited to try this tomorrow! 🙂
I forgot to say so but I would love more of these!
let me know what you think!
I loved it Gina!!! Totally felt the burn! Yesterday and today! 🙂
:)!
I love froyo! they have one in State College so I try to stop by there as often as I can. I love getting lychee and pineapple on top of a berry froyo and cookie dough and chocolate chips on top of a decadent froyo like cake batter. It’s so good!
Burn baby burn and a huffing and a puffing!!! Love this Gina! Thank you so much for putting together this video. So easy to follow. You are like my own personal trainer.
i loved the workout!! i actually did it between 2 sets of your tabata videos. i need to go back and pull from your previous videos when i need to get a quick workout in, on a day like today. thanks!
Just finished! Great mini bum burner! I have done the tabata videos also & have to say, I enjoy working out “with” you because you definitely push me to keep up with you! Great job!
Girl you rock. I took my phone with me to the lifetime fitness this afternoon. I found an empty classroom and did the workout along with you. I used a step bench and modified the jumping moves due to my knees. It was tough, but I loved it. Felt sorta like I took a mini class with you. Thank you for kicking my butt today.
whoo hoo! anytime, my friend
Dayummmm. This work-out is the jam. You rock, lady!! Oh, and side note: The Pilot is completely adorable. Lucky duck, you 😉
i am a very lucky girl 🙂
Hi Gina,
Love the humpday booty burner- can’t wait to make my turbo class suffer/enjoy some of the moves tonight!
Have you tried Zing bars? I just tried the PB chocolate chip one today and it reminded me of a cross between a Larabar and eating chocolate chips out of a PB jar – it made me think of you, so I thought I’d let you know 🙂
i will have to be on the hunt for these- sounds amazing!
Love when you post videos! This one had my quads burning more than my booty, but any burn is better than no burn. 🙂
that’s what i thought while i was filming it, but today.. quads and booty are sore!
Isaac and I give each other that same look! We have two fro yo places within one block of our house. It’s a challenge not to have fro yo every night after dinner. My favorite combo is tart + peanut butter fro yo topped with almonds and lots of fruit.
I just love your workouts. I get so excited when I see posts with workouts included. Thanks so much! I will definitely try it and tweet the results! 🙂
can’t wait to hear what you think! i love your tweets 🙂
My husband and I do the same thing every weekend with menchies. We have a slight addiction to coconut fro yo. Thanks for the booty burner! Looks like a good one!
I wish i could find some dairy free fro-yo! Is it made with coconut milk or something similar, or is it actually more of a sorbet?
i have no idea how they make it. haha
G$ – my buns are BURNING!!! omg. I’m going to have a hard time going up the stairs tomo – Thanks for this 🙂
Love the fro-yo trips!!! I have yet to find a dairy=free option near me….bummer.
yeahhhhh! so glad you enjoyed!
question about the booty… is it possible to work the glutes so they get bigger while overall losing weight/inches? or… just as there’s no such thing as spot reduction, there’s no such thing as spot gaining? haha or is it more of making sure your waist is whittled to create the illusion of a larger booty? halp me!
lifting heavy (like squat with a smith machine or heavy barbell, it will help to increase muscle mass and therefore size. it’s really more about creating shape than anything- if there’s not a ton of muscle there (a flat look), strength training, lots of squats, lunges and hilly cardio will help
This made me laugh. My husband and I are the same way when it comes to ice cream and/or fro yo :)!
Random thought while watching the RNC: The Pilot kinda looks like Paul Ryan. Not a dead ringer, but possibly brothers!
i thought she same- they look fairly similar 🙂
OMG I KNEW PAUL RYAN REMINDED ME OF SOMEONE! He totally looks like him!
Frozen yogurt is such a weakness of mine, especially peanut butter with Reese’s pieces on top! I love the video, too!
That was a fun one. I always enjoy the ab burners and maybe some more arm toners too? During one of the fitness classes I take occasionally, we sometimes do like a minute of these LOW and fast squat pulses and ouch, I always feel those the next day or two.
oh froyo:) I’m more of a “pie-resembler” but with dairy-free froyo:) great workout!!
So my bo-tay is already on FIYA! Yay! I’ve missed the burn.
Love this & can’t wait for abs!
YEP. Sore today. I love sore days.
awesome! me too 🙂
Finally that froyo arrived in Germany, I still haven’t try it since they do not offer any dairyfree alternative at all. Reading about soy frozen yogurts or even better the coconut ones makes me so jealous!
I cannot wait to try this tonight (is it weird that I’m excited for the burn lol?) 🙂
I’ve never tried dairy-free froyo but I did recently find a great probiotic froyo
Wow… Feel the burn! Awesome! Loved it!
Thank-you, loved the mini-workout before I head to spin!
Just finished! Legs are burning = it worked!
This was a fun work out and I loved that it was so quick! Jumping lunges have always been impossible for me! I feel like I lose all control of my legs. They are definitely something to work on so I’m glad that you tossed them into the mix. Thanks!
Is that your own personal gym at home? It looks amazing.
