Winter Shape Up 2015: Week 4

Is it really the last week of Winter Shape Up? I can’t even believe it; it’s gone by wayyy too quickly! Thank you again to all of you for making this such a fun challenge, and for cheering each other along the way. We still have 6 days to crush it! Let’s finish with the same intensity that we started with. Even if you didn’t follow the plan, maybe try one of this week’s workouts to see how you like it, and maybe you’ll be able to join in the fun for summer. If you’re sad to see it come to an end, remember that you can repeat the program to make it an 8-week plan.

    Tonight is The Dailey Method.

  2. Cayla on February 16, 2015 at 1:09 pm

    I did an easy 20 minute run with my dog followed by workout #4 x3. The usual flow yoga tonight to end my holiday. Can’t wait to finish WSU strong!

  3. Nicole on February 16, 2015 at 1:11 pm

    Working out on Mondays is always so tough for me! Off today (with some evening yoga tonight) and then starting the weekly schedule tomorrow.

  4. Kara on February 16, 2015 at 1:18 pm

    Just finished wo# 1×3. So tough! I’m still sore after barre and hiit yesterday! Stretching it out now.

  5. Kary on February 16, 2015 at 1:24 pm

    I ended up slacking off last week due to having unexpected guests staying with us for 5 days…but I’m back today! I took advantage of some toddler-free time and did a 4 mile hike (ran about half of it). My legs are already hurting so I will start up your plan tomorrow 🙂 I am definitely thinking of repeating the plan to keep it going…and I scored a used spin bike so I’m excited to use that during the weeks too.

  6. Jennifer Lattin on February 16, 2015 at 1:25 pm

    Snow day today. Took the active rest day today I stead if yesterday. I did a Jessica Smith walking workout to get my blood flowing for the day.

  7. Sarah on February 16, 2015 at 1:37 pm

    workout 4 complete! its nice to have workout options that I can do at home when I’m snowed in!

  8. Carly on February 16, 2015 at 2:01 pm

    IM on schedule so this am was workout 4 3 times through!

  9. Kariann on February 16, 2015 at 2:03 pm

    I did my usual HIIT class this morning 6:35am-7:30am at the downtown YMCA. I love starting out the day with some gym time; the hardest part is just rolling out of bed, hehe.

  10. Sneha on February 16, 2015 at 2:29 pm

    Well, it just started to snow out here in NC so…. it’s gonna be an at home easy yoga workout today to help with a recent back injury.

  11. erin on February 16, 2015 at 2:35 pm

    i did 2 rounds of workout 4. plus an 8 minute ab routine.

  12. Claire on February 16, 2015 at 2:48 pm

    3 mile hike yesterday. The weather was amazing!!! Today I swam laps. Got to start getting in shape for tri season

  13. RMR on February 16, 2015 at 3:13 pm

    I was on the treadmill for 45 minutes this morning – finally building up a solid steady state workout (nearly solid “running” at 6 mile/hr). I’d love to run a 5K this summer – being a “runner” is smthg I thought I’d never be able to do.

  14. Becca H on February 16, 2015 at 3:15 pm

    Great swim today

  15. Grace Gillis on February 16, 2015 at 3:18 pm

    Workout #4 x 3 today! Plus 20min warm up run and 20min cool down walk. All while watching the snow fall through the gym window. Hopefully the snow won’t disturb too much here in VA

  16. Kelly on February 16, 2015 at 3:44 pm

    Barre class!

  17. Vicki L. on February 16, 2015 at 3:51 pm

    Got the workout done. Things went a little better than when I did it last week, but I was again coming off an overnight shift so it was interesting.

  18. Angela M on February 16, 2015 at 3:59 pm

    Workout #4 x 3 times and the barre blast workout! Great workouts!

  19. Carley on February 16, 2015 at 4:05 pm

    I did a great spin class tonight and plan to do workout #4 tomorrow!

  20. Molly@This Life Is Sparkling on February 16, 2015 at 4:22 pm

    Yesterday I took a relaxing yoga class.

  21. Molly@This Life Is Sparkling on February 16, 2015 at 4:22 pm

    Today I did workout #4 plus ran a mile.

  22. michelle a. on February 16, 2015 at 4:44 pm

    Workout #4 was awesome! I think I might take a yoga class tonight also!

  23. Kelsey on February 16, 2015 at 4:44 pm

    Loved workout four this morning!

  24. Laura on February 16, 2015 at 4:45 pm

    Did workout 4 during nap time!

  25. Sara on February 16, 2015 at 4:47 pm

    I was in the mood for a cardio morning so I did last year’s week four workout, along with a short arm strength training (weights) and lower body barre workout for balance.

  26. Nikki on February 16, 2015 at 4:54 pm

    Today was WO 4 x3 and some treadmill sprints!

  27. Jeanne on February 16, 2015 at 5:20 pm

    Took it easy today and did a quick arm workout I found on youtube!

  28. Heidi N. on February 16, 2015 at 5:46 pm

    Took Sunday off and just completed workout #4!

  29. Lauren on February 16, 2015 at 6:14 pm

    Leg day for me today at my kettlebell class.

  30. Diane on February 16, 2015 at 6:20 pm

    Intervals on the elliptical followed by some time on the bike so I can finish reading the book for my book club tomorrow! 🙂

  31. Christina on February 16, 2015 at 6:26 pm

    Had a really good run today!

  32. Kelster on February 16, 2015 at 6:35 pm

    I just completed a 3 mile walk and now it’s time for workout 4

  33. Lindsay on February 16, 2015 at 6:47 pm

    Just did 2 rounds of #4! Very excited for tomorrow’s #3… I’m snowed in so I might do a couple rounds.

  34. MaryBeth on February 16, 2015 at 6:52 pm

    Took an awesome spin class today!

  35. Samantha on February 16, 2015 at 7:16 pm

    Workout #4 3x today!

  36. Lynora on February 16, 2015 at 7:18 pm

    I had a family emergency last week so I didn’t complete the whole week as I wanted. Instead of being frustrated with not finishing the way I hoped I decided to redo it! So I am on week 3 again. I finished a 40 steady Zumba class today. I am so happy I found a new workout I love.

  37. Sarah b on February 16, 2015 at 7:32 pm

    Super energetic and super sweaty Cyclebar class 🙂

  38. Chelsea on February 16, 2015 at 7:35 pm

    Did Workout #4 today and it was nice and sweaty! Love the variety of muscles being worked and the addition of cardio in this one.

  39. Jessica C on February 16, 2015 at 7:39 pm

    Today was a long, cold dog walk and tons of chores, equalling 12K+ steps so far. I had minor surgery on my back and can’t lift for a few days, so I’ll be modifying week 4 starting tomorrrow with some steady state!

  40. Liz on February 16, 2015 at 8:25 pm

    I’m so sore from yesterday so today’s a rest day.

  41. Leah on February 16, 2015 at 8:34 pm

    Workout 4 done-2 rounds, 15 minutes elliptical and some arm weights.

  42. Katie G on February 16, 2015 at 9:08 pm

    Workout 4 x 3 today. So fun!

  43. Emily Lutz on February 17, 2015 at 1:31 am

    I love Sabra hummus!! My workout today is 15 min of whole-body strengthening with dumbbells at home and then 20-30 min of elliptical while I read my textbook!

  44. Jen on February 17, 2015 at 1:58 am

    checking for tuesday… half hour HIIT class this morning!

  45. Erin M. on February 17, 2015 at 2:51 am

    Treadmill run this AM. Is it spring yet??

  46. Chelsea on February 17, 2015 at 3:42 am

    Just did workout #5 – so killer!

  47. melissa on February 17, 2015 at 5:17 am

    getting the workout on at home today! trapped indoors!

  48. Laura T. on February 17, 2015 at 5:19 am

    I did a 30 minute Plyo workout on Monday! Trying to get back in the game. This hamstring pull is really putting me out of my comfort level! But, moving is the key, so I am doing that and trying to stretch as much as I can.

  49. Anna on February 17, 2015 at 5:51 am

    Early morning barre class.

  50. Kelsey on February 17, 2015 at 6:18 am

    My husband decided he wanted to start P90X again, so we did legs and back this morning. Feel the burn.
