Fitness Challenge

Hi Sassy Ones,

I've been crazy busy this week and I apologize for not posting sooner.  I will post your next fitness challenge and then give you a real blog entry in another post.

Sass it up Challenge

When using weights for your upperbody try starting a few pounds heavier than you usually go. Don't worry you won't bulk up! Women don't produce enough testerone to become huge. Challenge yourself and don't get comfortable

Step Ups:

This is the best exercise to lift your backside. No droopy butt here! Grab a chair and go. You will get some cardio because when you step onto something your heart rate climbs. Try them between sets of arm or ab work.

1. ·       Stand, feet shoulder-width apart, in front of the chair with the seat-side facing you

2. ·       Raise your right foot onto the chair seat with your left foot on the floor only for balance.

3. ·       Push off your right foot, springing your body straight up into the air.

4. ·      Land with your left foot on the chair seat and your right on the floor for balance

5. ·       Push off your left foot, springing your body straight up into the air

6. ·       Land with your right foot on the chair seat and your left on the floor for balance

Repeat steps 3 through 6 several times adding more repetitions as your legs strengthen over time.

Add this to what you are already doing (from the previous challenge posts) and do at least 3-4 intense cardio workouts 30-45 minutes
