“My Trainer” by Jessica Tyrrell, 2010 “Most Inspirational” Gold’s Gym Challenge Winner

This weekend I was out and about when I got stopped by someone to chat and during our conversation they asked me why I had a trainer when it seemed like I had enough motivation to keep going on my own.  This lead me to my blog topic for the week and I think this is honestly one of the easiest things for me to talk about because I would recommend to everyone that they have a trainer.  First of all I do understand that not everyone can afford to have a trainer. However, think of all the money you blow going out to eat all the time, going to happy hour, buying a coffee everyday or even stopping at the store to grab something.  All these things add up and I’m not even going to mention all the calories you’re wracking up! This is how I compare the cost, for me, I think I’m actually saving money!

Strength Training Anatomy 2nd Edition by Frederic Delavier

If you’ve ever wondered which exercises to do to ‘work’ certain body parts, then this book would be immensely helpful to you. Full of nothing but detailed illustrations showing exercises that effectively stress the muscle groups of the body, this book has a lot to offer anyone who exercises. The book is divided into sections based on body parts and also includes common injuries associated with those body parts and how those injuries are acquired. Mr. Delavier is a skilled artist, which you will see through the pages as he illustrates all of the ‘exercise demonstrators’.

3 Stage Workout- Take the Challenge!!

This workout has three different stages. The first stage is an upper body workout, followed by a lower body, and finishing up with core work. Once one stage is started, focus on limiting the amount of rest between each exercise (i.e. once you start jump roping push the pace all the way through the dumbell rows, then rest). Finish the upper body stage three times before moving onto lower body. Rest between sets should be 2:00-4:00. For an added challenge, time yourself on each stage and try to beat previous time!
