Week Nine

MR is our newest addition and I was pleasantly surprised when CS, the PTM asked if she could train me that day. She absolutely knew her stuff! She explained how it works when you want to tone down, to go higher reps with lower weights versus building muscles. What really stood out was that trick called 'burn down the house'.....I couldn't believe how quick my arms burned, then when I was totally wiped out, she let go of my hands and instructed me to keep pushing up.....it felt like a ton of bricks!!! What a nifty exercise!!!! I told her I wanted to tone my arms more since they are flabby and we focused on them. She also had me do what seemed like a spider crawl up and down the floor and side lunges while holding a weighted ball over my head. Phew....those exercise were tough, but good to build my core up. I didn't do well on my abs tho and couldn't raise my legs for long. That's something I have to work on. Thanks MR for your time, and once again WELCOME!
