Here it is Workout wednesday and I have the flu. I am resting, hydrating and surviving on Tamiflu. I don't believe in pushing through workouts when I'm sick or feeling under the weather. I need to rest to allow my body to recover. Any available energy should be used to fight off infection and recover. I'm not worried about working out or even getting my daily 10k steps. I will get back to it as soon as I feel healthy again, but for now, I am down and out. (Let the internet sympathy ensue.)

This week for Workout Wednesday you won't see me in any workout pictures (you're welcome). Instead, I am giving away this fun fitness dice* that I found at Five Below and sharing a dice workout you can do at home even if you don't win the giveaway! NOTE: GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED

THESE DICE WERE AVAILABLE AT THE STORE FIVE BELOW. I DO NOT BELIEVE THEY STOCK THEM ANY LONGER

I think it is a really fun way to get in a quick workout when you want to shake up your regular routine. Set the timer for 20 minutes and start rolling. I use these in bootcamp to break up the circuits and they are always fun!
