Super Setting! - Workout 4: Core

What is a strong core? 

A strong core is a strong and sturdy mid section that helps improve your posture and strength. You need a strong core to actually improve your overall strength. It's like a tree's trunk. A tree with a thing trunk will not be able to hold up as many leaves and branches as would the bigger trunked trees. And no, core exercise will NOT bulk up your midsection. Instead, it increases blood flow to our abs and hips, thus increasing our fat burning metabolism at those stubborn spots.

Interval Set Training: week 2- Legs, Back, Core Results!

Stacey Oster Thompson
Hi. I know I haven't been blogging daily as I have been doing research for the next blog post. Today's post is for this week's interval training workouts and I included my results! I hope you enjoyed the workouts as much as I did. I felt that the back day was the most challenging workout for me since I still have quite crappy arms anyway. So I gotta improve on getting my shoulders to really pop.

My personal goals are actually to do a 1-arm push up eventually as well as a 1 arm pull up. I think they are really cool exercises to pull off and I can prove that they aren't that impossible at all! Right now, headstand push ups, I can squeeze out a few and I can do 1-4 pull ups, depending on the day I guess.

What are your personal goals you'd like to see yourself doing?
