Exercise of the Week

Many of my clients often comment on the vast number of exercises I have in my mental library (a million and one to be exact!)  After more than 20 years of exercising, I have gathered an abundance of effective and fun exercises in core training, balance training, resistance training, flexibility training and cardiorespiratory training.  I’ve learned that variety, progression and a systematic approach are essential!  My client Bob, who is 64 year old and has trained with me for the past four years, always gets a kick out of the fact that I am still able to incorporate new exercises into his program. His favorite comment is “just when I thought I had you beat!”

I’ve discovered these exercises from many resources.  I have designed several myself and others are exercises that I’ve learned from great fitness professionals.  One thing I love about the fitness industry is the camaraderie and willingness to share one’s expertise.  Many of us are deeply passionate about our service to others.  So it is in this light that I will highlight a weekly exercise that you can easily incorporate into your exercise program.  I will be sure to include clear instructions supported by illustration and video.  Also, I will mention modifications for varying exercise levels.

Enjoy and let’s get moving!  Your health and fitness goals are clearly within your reach!  Don’t forget to subscribe to A Fit Second Half.  You will not want to miss these exciting posts.
