Traci's Tips - 11/3/07


It's Friday, so it's time for my trainer Traci's weekly tips:

1) When walking to exercise add some 5 lbs weights, it will help build a little muscle and give you a little bit harder workout.

2) Drink at least 8 glasses of water a day. While exercising you should drink at least 20 oz of water.

3) Stretch, Stretch, Stretch! Important to stretch muscles to prevent tears and strains. Also, be sure to make it a fluid motion...don't bounce.

4) Food Journal and count your calories. This will allow you to see what you are putting in your body and maybe rethink some of those unhealthy foods.

5) Exercises of the Week:
Chest Press
Chest Flies
Do 4 sets of 15 of these with your normal routine and you will begin to feel the strength increase in your chest and arms.

Thanks Traci!

Well, I am off to Fitness World West to work with the woman herself, right now!

Yours in fitness, Kate
