Default RED TEAM Week 7 Exercise Challenge - Trouble Spots
Okay, so here is the challenge. We are going to continue the exercise challenge from last week, and we are going to add a trouble spot challenge. So add up your exercise minutes from last week and add an additional 10% (minimum is still 140 minutes), plus I want you to pick one trouble spot that you are going to work on with strength training exercises.

Now we don't want to overdo strength exercises, so you'll only do them every other day, but I really want you to work the dickens out of your trouble spot on the the days you do work it. Do at least three different exercises.

If you have any questions feel free to post a question or send me a pm.

BURN IT!!!

Sorry ladies but I have got sick daughter this week and will be traveling for Halloween, so no way I will be able to get in extra exercise this week as I can't take DD into childwatch so I can work out.
