Fit Gal’s Weekly Favorite Exercise: 1-Arm DB Up Rows!

October 10, 2014 By Mindy

This week’s “Favorite Exercise of the Week” comes a day early. I’m taking tomorrow off to enjoy a weekend getaway with my husband!

Fit Gal’s Weekly Favorite Exercise: Bulgarian Lunge

September 20, 2014 By Mindy

This week’s favorite exercise is an oldie, but goodie, the Bulgarian Lunge! As my Coach Brooke Erickson – beFIT and I work on my glute-ham tie-in area, this is excellent for building and shaping the booty! I warmed up each leg holding 2 5-lb plates. I added more weight with each set, focus on going low, back […]
