Day 075 - Improving Strength

15-minute Strength (ST) training routine at level 1 intensity, cool down by stretching for 15 minutes.        Training via ActiveMail

TODAY, DO 15 MINUTES OF STRENGTH (ST) TRAINING, FOLLOWED BY 15 MINUTES OF STRETCHING. We're shortening the duration of the ST sessions again. You should still be doing two sets of each exercise, but adjust the number of reps in each to fit the 15-minute time limit. You should be getting stronger by now, with the new exercises getting easier. One consequence of this improved strength may be a slight increase in weight, don't panic. As long as you are consistently burning more calories than you consume each day, you'll be losing fat stores. But you may also be gaining some muscle, which weighs more than fat, and thus, your weight may not go down like you would like. Instead of focusing on your weight, focus on how your clothes fit or how you look.
