Hi!  How has your week been so far?  I feel like mine has been so super busy and the little guy is determined to sleep as little as possible. Oy!  Ahhhhh well, things could be worse!

I am so excited for today’s post!  I have two awesome things to share with you.  First, HIIT the Barre™.  I have been wanting to share this with you since before I got pregnant.  In fact, I planned out this class and then found out I was pregnant.  All of a sudden, HIIT workouts were absolutely no fun.  I filmed a video anyway but there was a glare on the video so I had to nix it.  Then I got way too pregnant to film another HIIT the Barre™ video.  Soooooo, after 9 months of being pregnant and six months with a little baby running around, I’m finally sharing this with you!  I hope you like it!
 

HIIT the Barre™ combines traditional barre strengthening and toning exercises with Hight Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) moves.  This video includes 4 sprints with each sprint containing 1-3 barre toning moves and 1 HIIT exercise.  Prepare to push yourself to your limits and then recover with focused strength training.  Please note that this video includes non-low-impact moves.  You should be in good physical condition to participate in this video and as always, you should consult a physician before starting this workout.*  Check it out!

And here is the printable in case you want to take it with you to the gym!

The Link-Up
Thank you all so much for your amazing comments on last Thursday’s first Throwback Thursday post! I was so excited by how enthusiastic you were about the post and the idea! In fact, my good friend Allie at VitaTrain4Life suggested I do a link-up and that is exactly what I’m going to do! So here’s the deal!

First, grab my badge and add it to your post!

<div align="center"><a href="http://www.myownbalance.com" title="My Own Balance"><img src="http://brittanybendallfitness.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/Throwback-Thursday.jpg" alt="My Own Balance" style="border:none;" /></a></div>

Then, follow these guidelines:

1. The purpose of this link-up is to revive some of our old blog posts that we think merit a second look for our old readers and to introduce our new readers to some great old content.  

2.  Find an old post you like and re-publish it on your blog using the Thursday Throwback title and badge.

3.  Come on over to the link-up and add your link!  

4.  Please check out the links of three other linkers and show them a little love via a comment or social media share.

This is the easiest link-up ever because the post has already been written and all you have to do is just add in your link!  So no excuses for not showing a little love to other bloggers.  You might even find someone new you like!
Readers, are you going to join the link-up tomorrow?  Have you ever combined a HIIT workout with another form of exercise (like strength training, yoga, etc.)?
