This week's exercise is called the V-Up, which works on your core. Start by lying on your back with your arms extended above your head and then lifting both your arms and legs to create the "V" shape, resting back into starting position. Start with 5 reps and increase as your maintain your form and gain strength.

Today's exercise is the side bend. You can put your hands behind your head, or raise them above your head intertwining them. This exercise helps limber up the sides, as well as stretch the arms, chest, back, and neck. Take a deep breath and exhale as your bend to the side, inhaling as you come back up.

Tricep Stretch and Shoulder Squeeze!

This week's exercise is something that I have not discussed previously but is very, very important. It is important for you to stretch before beginning a workout. Stretching helps flexibility, as well as prevent (or decrease the likelihood of) a workout injury.

Tricep Stretch - This exercise can be done while standing, sitting, or kneeling, and is quite beneficial if you are planning for an arm day. This exercise stretches the neck, shoulders, back, and triceps.

Shoulder Squeeze - This exercise can be done while standing or sitting, and really relieves poor posture as well as release tension in the upper back. Do this exercise for 5 seconds, and then release. Repeat this 5 to 10 times. (Also great for arm day.)

I'm kinda proud of these pictures because I have been doing a toning program for a week and my back and shoulders are starting to have definition 😍😍😍

Bent-Over Reverse Fly!

1/10/2019

This week's exercise is known as the bent-over reverse fly. This exercise is good for your arms, shoulders, and upper back. I am using 3lb dumbbell weights here (the day before was toning day so I am using a lighter weight). Start with a lighter weight if you are new to toning, or a heavier weight if you are more experienced. Start with 10 reps (I think I did 10 here, I lost count 😂😂😂) and increase as you get better and stronger 💪💪💪

This week's exercise is known as the lateral arm raise. Special shout out to my friend Taffy Hawkins for the dumbbell weights that I am using (a special Christmas gift). I am using 5 pound weights here, but you can start lighter and work your way up. Start with 10 reps, then increase as you get stronger 💪💪💪
