Fit Tip

The Lenten season is drawing to a close and if you've given up something for the last many weeks, I'm sure you're looking forward to Sunday when all things old are new again. 

Let me try and convince you to give up one more thing this for the next week! Select the one exercise you never fail to complete and give it up.  Yep, you heard me...do not, I repeat, do not repeat that move.  I'm going so far as to even ask you to not substitute another drill for that muscle. 

Who's your favorite trainer?!

Fit Tip

One minute
 
Pick one cardio exercise you don't despise, and begin your day with a one minute burst of that movement.  (if you've got it going on, combine a previous tip and complete an action you don't like; consider it a double challenge- jump rope anyone??)

Fit Tip

Spring is upon us and even though I have on a sweatshirt now, we all realize that in two hours I'll be in shorts and considering turning on the air conditioner in the house.  Start today on a new "before I leave the house 10 minute workout" to bust out of the winter body into a rocking warm weather physique:  Do 20 seconds Speed Squat (rest 10), Dynamic Step Up 20 seconds (rest 10), Speed Skater 20 secs, (rest 10), Lunge Jump 20 seconds and rest for 10 seconds.  Complete this circuit three times and follow it up with a full-body V Up for 15 reps.  Add swagger to that walk out the door!
