Danica Patrick may be out of a ride, but she's still crushing her workouts

Danica Patrick may be out of a ride for the 2018 season, but that news didn't stop her from getting a good workout in on Tuesday.

While her future in NASCAR may be in doubt, she was not going to let that get her down. Known for her fitness off the track, Patrick posted a time-lapse video of her intense workout -- complete with a bright sunset beaming through the window behind her -- to her Instagram, just hours after the announcement that she won't return to Stewart-Haas Racing next season.

I looooove making up workouts. Kinda like I love putting an outfit together for dinner just as much as I like going to dinner. I like the creativity about it. The balance, the flow. This was a compound movement workout inspired by @tanyapoppett. I saw her do a workout with pillows and thought, ya, props! So here it is- . 15 rounds- 10 Butt kickers 10 high knees 10 jumping jacks 10 wacky jacks 15 rounds- 4 alt side lunge 4 alt jumping lunge 4 alt step ups 15 rounds- 1 wall walk 2 hand release push up 3 supermans 15 rounds- 3 way - 2 pillow stack 4 strait leg sit ups Took about 33min. ��

As the great Elle Woods once said, "Exercise gives you endorphins. Endorphins make you happy. Happy people just don't get all down when they lose their NASCAR ride, they just don't."

OK, maybe that's not exactly how the quote goes, but it's close enough.
