Healthy Fitness Challenge: Week 10, Day 4
Inspiration/Motivation: It is always great to help people, but don’t own other people’s problems. You have to draw the line to protect your own health.
Warmup: Back, Bi’s, and Thighs (Interval or circuit format to keep your heart rate elevated); Core; Stretch-it-Out
Exercise of the Day: Inner Thigh Leg Lift –this is a great exercise to tone the inner thighs & the core as well as the buttocks of the balancing leg.
Exercise Tip: A belly that sticks out is sometimes due to bad posture and an anterior tilt in the pelvis. Make sure you stand up/sit up tall and always pull your navel to your spine engaging your abs.
