I used this format for teaching a Strength Circuit class yesterday morning. It has left me feeling shaky all day! It’s great to be able to tell that what you did is challenging your body.

I will admit that since moving to Cleveland, I have been slacking on strength training. It’s no one’s fault but my own. I have been teaching spinning 3-4 times a week and running the other days because it has (finally) been nice out! I need to get back into the mood of working on my strength, specifically Body Pump. My video is due in about a month and I am not ready.

You can expect some new workout posts to be coming your way soon! 🙂
