Workout Wednesday


Do you often say to yourself, “I am at the gym… Now, what should I do?”

First, do not focus on what you should do; focus on what want to do. 

Do what feels good to you today.

To get you started and stay motivated…

I have compiled a “list” of 5 basic movement patterns to include during each gym session. 

  • Push Movement

Examples: Push-up, Chest Press, Tricep Extension
