This is my first workout post. I am excited to share a lot more of the workouts I do at home and outside on this fitness page. I don’t workout for a specific physique goal (ie. fitness competition, strength, or giant thighs). I workout for life. For a healthy heart, muscle maintenance, and stress relief. The workouts I will be sharing don’t build up to achieve an obscure result, they are meant to challenge the cardiovascular system and at the very least activate muscle to maintain, and hopefully build muscle. This is the point of exercise. When we workout to complement and support our body we find increased metabolism and decreased injury. I want you to enjoy making these workouts your own.
I hope this page helps you find motivation to try out a workout at home. I will start to link to my favorite equipment in future posts. If you have confusion about an exercise or questions about making a move less or more challenging, please comment or contact me - my goal is to share workouts that everyone can do and I am happy to provide those modifications on request. Additionally, if there is a different format in which you prefer to find your workouts please let me know.
