In honor of Halloween, I thought I would change my 43 a little today and instead of doing 43 of a single exercise, I did 43 exercises for a minute each!!! No tricks here – all “treats”!!!

The 43 Plan: (notice – there is NO break in between each exercise!)

1. Jog in place
2. Butt kicks
3. Heisman
4. Mountain climbers
5. Crunches
6. Right knee repeater
7. Left knee repeater
8. Right leg – single leg hops – in place – for height
9. Left leg – single leg hops – in place – for height
10. Squat with feet together – don’t come all the way out of the squat at the top
11. Hold plank (on hands)
12. High knees
13. Jumping jacks
14. Tricep extensions – both arms – 8 pound dumbbells
15. Right leg forward lunge – push off right heel to stand each time
16. Left leg forward lunge – push off left heel to stand each time
17. Plank jacks
18. Shoulder press – 8 pound dumbbells
19. Plie squat – jump to right side kick
20. Plie squat – jump to left side kick
21. Speed skaters – reach opposite hand to foot
22. Double-leg hops – front and back
23. Burpees with jump at top

31. Hold left side plank (on elbow)
32. Right snap kick (hitch jump with left leg to right kick)
33. Left snap kick (hitch jump with right leg to left kick)
34. Walking lunges
35. Plie with calf raise (stay in plie the entire minute)
36. Rows – 8 pound dumbbells
37. Push-ups on toes
38. Alternate jabs to front – stay in low plie – twist at waist
39. Stiff leg dead lift – 8 pound dumbbells
40. Right leg single-leg squat
41. Left leg single-leg squat
42. Alternate side bends – 8 pound dumbbells
43. Leg swing (pendulum) – opposite arm punches up

I used my Gymboss timer which made it super easy to get a full minute for each exercise without watching the clock.

I just set the timer for 1 minute with only 1 interval (you can put in 2 if you want a recovery interval) and set the counter at 43.  Simple – at the end of each minute it chimed and started right into the next minute count-down!!

(I think you can get them through Amazon, also.)

This 43 really was a treat – I was surprised at how quickly the 43 minutes went.  Try your own version – maybe a 26, a 32 – whatever you can do!!!

I pulled down my Halloween Martini glass – I figure I will have a true treat later tonight!!!!

I’m going to get some Halloween candy today (finally).  I haven’t bought any because I knew that it wouldn’t last till tonight if I did – the boys Chris I would eat it!!!!  Now I will just eat whatever is left after tonight!!!

Happy Halloween!!!!

Do y’all like Halloween?  Do you dress up? I have to be honest – I’m really not a huge Halloween fan – don’t know why – just how things are!
