Christmas and the New Year have come and passed, perhaps as quickly as that New Year’s resolution to get in shape has. In the month of February, we take time to honor our nation’s presidential history on President’s Day, spend time with our special sweeties on Valentine’s Day, and find out whether we are predestined for six more weeks of winter on Groundhog’s Day. In addition to celebrating these great holidays, celebrate your body by conducting effective cardio and strength exercises three to five times per week for 20-30 minutes. Here are February’s effective, no-equipment exercise tips that target each major problem area, guaranteed to keep you looking your best all year long.
Gun Slinging Fit-to-Fight Tip #9
Before you workout, make sure you perform your dynamic stretching also known as a warm-up. Once you are thermally ready, after about 5-10 minutes, you are ready to workout. Please note that these exercises should not be done unless you are in good physical/medical standard and have cleared all medical conditions which may become worse by doing these exercises. If you have any questions about these exercises, the Gunfighter Fitness Center Staff will be happy to answer or demonstrate them for you.
