March Body | Mind Workout
It’s all about balance this month.
It’s all about balance this month. Your Personal Trainer created workout to help balance your body and mind. Designed to be done 2-3x per week. It will increase your core strength, balance and boost your bodies natural ability to burn fat and your minds natural ability to feel empowered. If you are a beginner you can perform it in sections each section is 5-10 minutes. Trainer Tip: Beginners: Take your time to learn new moves. Embrace learning perfect form and being patient with your self. Intermediate / Advanced – Push your limits they change daily, honor where your body is at, but truly push through each section of this workout is a hurdle -even the warm up- if done right.
Also, if you have a busy day perform it in sections and it is just as effective. Get comfortable in the uncomfortable and challenge yourself.
True strength is found in the most uncomfortable places. No matter where you are or what your goals are SHARE them with us and share your progress. We care and our watching and by sharing we are building our community #LOOKLIKEAFITSNACK to WIN our “Be Yours” Challenge.

- Higher in Vitamin K and Niacin
