Gym Work Out!
Do you have a gym membership and don’t use it? Here are some reasons you should!
You may not realise it, but in order to make our Physie routines look strong, you need to be physically strong! The gym is a wonderful facility that you must utilise if you have the opportunity!
I understand that for most, the gym can be an intimidating environment. Try not to get caught up about worrying what people are thinking, and just get stuck into your workout! If they’ve got time to judge you, they’re not working hard enough!
There is always staff at the gym who could easily whizz around with you, and show you how to adjust the machines and how to use them. All you need to do is ask and then you’ll be set! Pretty easy right?
Once you’re ready, have a go at this workout. This type of program would suit a Beginner/Intermediate fitness level. Make sure you consult your doctor first if you have health concerns, and get the okay!
What should you take to the gym?
- Water bottle
- Some kick ass music to get you pumped up
- Towel
- Your eye of the tiger spirit!
