Chip, Chip, Chip Away: 5 Chipper Workouts to Try
Maybe my CrossFit experience has made me a bit of a masochist… but I LOVE a good chipper workout.
One where I can turn my brain off and just move; spend 25-45 minutes focusing solely on finishing one rep and then starting the next one on repeat until the task is complete. The rest of life – the stresses, the to-do list, the obligations – can wait til every last rep is accounted for.
And, of course, a chipper that makes my legs feel like Jell-O leaves me feeling absolutely justified in taking a mid-day nap afterwards!
A Chipper will challenge you physically and mentally. It is an aerobic workout that will allow your body to maximize the amount of oxygen in your blood, which can reduce your risk of heart attack, type 2 diabetes, or a stroke!
Chippers are an awesome way to build up your endurance and strength. And we’ve got 5 to share with you today that will hurt so gooooood.
