the week is nearly over...
I have 6/7 of the summer sculpt done!
I would like to say I'm sticking to what I said I would but I just found a new routine I like even more....
I started adding a 3 minute HIIT workout before the sculpt workout yesterday... then today I added more and enjoyed it even more!
For Day 6 of the 7 Day Summer Sculpt, the focus is abs and inner thigh... so I added my favorite strength workout to that!
In total I did a 3 minute HIIT, 5 minute sculpt (with warmup and cool down ~8 minutes total), and then a 15 minute strengthXpilates workout with the same focus (lower body). I've decided that that the two days in the 7 day sculpt challenge that do thighs I'm gonna add in a lower body strength and the day arms are done in the sculpt add upper body weights.
so my week will be kinda like this:
Every day HIIT (message/comment if interested in the playlist I'm using).
Sculpt is 7 days week; abs focus MWFSu, thighs focus Tues Sat, and arms focus Thurs.
Weights added Tuesday (lower), Thursday (upper), and Saturday (lower).

Adding a quick HIIT session before my sculpt workouts has truly transformed my routine by increasing my energy and calorie burn without requiring extra time. The beauty of starting with a 3-minute high-intensity interval training is that it helps me wake up my muscles and improve cardiovascular health right from the start. After completing the HIIT, transitioning into the 5-minute sculpt workouts feels more effective, and then I top it off with a focused 15-minute strength and Pilates session, targeting either lower or upper body depending on the day. One thing I’ve noticed during this process is how important it is to listen to your body’s needs and mix up the intensity. For example, on days dedicated to thighs, adding additional lower body strength exercises like weighted squats or Pilates leg lifts helped me feel stronger and toned the areas I wanted to focus on. Similarly, on the arm days, incorporating upper body weights has added a great challenge to the sculpt routine. It’s a small adjustment but has made a big difference in keeping me motivated and seeing progress. Consistency is key, but so is variety. Combining HIIT and sculpt workouts with strength training not only boosts metabolism but also enhances muscle definition and endurance. If you’re on a similar fitness journey, I highly recommend trying this mix. Also, having a playlist ready makes the workouts more enjoyable and keeps the energy up. Feel free to comment if you want me to share my workout music playlist! This combined approach is ideal for those wanting to maximize short workout periods with effective movements that target multiple fitness goals: fat loss, muscle toning, and strength building. Remember, even on days you feel less motivated, just the 3-minute HIIT before your sculpt workout can get you moving and make it easier to complete the rest of your routine. Starting small and building up gradually is what’s helped me stick to this challenge and look forward to each day’s workout.
