Shape Your Body Home Workout




Hi Everyone!

Today's workout was a tough one for me. I wasn't expecting it. I felt great, and ready to work out, but as soon as I started I realized how tired my body was. On the bent over rows I was lifting the bar to high. If you are trying that exercise, you should be lifting the bar to your upper abs. 

I also did a two mile recovery run with one of the girls from the cross country team. A recovery run is a short run done at an easy pace. The goal is to get your blood flowing, work out any soreness and lactic acid build up in your body. 

I hope you guys enjoy the workout. I apologize for having an "off" night.

  1. I was inspired to do home work out by you. Since I watched your videos I never came back to the gym because it really works.

  3. Working out everyday and eating healthy foods is what I am doing now. Aside from that, I never fail to visit my dentist at least once every six months.

  4. Great for starters, it's not that hard to execute making it worth doing. If you want to shape up then start with the basics, there should be perseverance and discipline to achieve the established goal. Being in shape is a process that takes time and hard work, it is hard but it will benefit us in more ways that we can think of.

  5. Eating healthy combined with regular exercise will help us achieve our ideal body size. I am going to visit a vegan restaurant with my friend next month. We will check the menu because we will going to add that to our diet food list.
