Still at the Gym

So how are we going to dedicate one day of gym exercise for the upper body and not do one for the lower body? Well, we are. And it is going to be awesome. I know we have been doing a lot of body weight exercises over the past several months. While this workout will incorporate some machines and weights, it is set up to ease you back in. Listen to your body, if anything feels off, turn it down. Have a good time with this one today. I promise, your legs will be sore.
