Do it in threes....

Women's Health Magazine suggests focusing on one of three things to jump start your workout:

  1. Weight 
  2. Intensity  
  3. Volume 
"To keep your body guessing, focus on one variable per workout: Increase the weight but lower the number of reps one day; lower your standard weight but add a set the next; use your standard weight but do more reps faster on another."

Then suggestions of:  
  • Pull-ups
  • Row machine
  • Short burst circuits (jump rope, push-ups, jumping jacks, etc) 
Even my little first graders were doing pull-up in gymnastics class today!  The most seasoned athletes may struggle with these challenging moves.... so get to work and see how you're doing at them today!
