Irish Mushroom Melt is a brilliant way to celebrate St. Patty's Day! Remember to wear green! 

  I thought I was going to be in luck this year with St. Patrick's Day falling on a Saturday. No last minute scrambles to find something green. No frantic searches for green nail polish and green hair bows. No worrying about school craziness that would go with the day. I was wrong, but only a little wrong. The kids aren't nearly as stressed about it, but the school is moving their activities to Friday. So today we are throwing in a quick plyometric workout.

Plyometrics are all about explosive movements that get your heart rate going. This will be a shorter but intense workout that you can do on chaotic days or that you can add on to an existing day just because you are feeling a little intense.

Remember to get in a solid warm up and cool down. Power is the name of the game here folks!



Happy Fit Friday. 
Love always~ Nichole and Ruthie xoxoxo
