Gym Workout – Creativity in Action

The next time you’re at your gym, take a look around at all the warning signs cautioning you to be careful to use the equipment properly and as directed. I don’t know about you, but sometimes that gets boring for me. Gym workouts are so much more fun when you break the rules and get creative with the equipment! Sometimes, rules are made to be broken…

Okay, okay… be careful too 😉

Booty Gym Circuit

 

It’s Fitness Friday!! If you’re heading to the gym to get your pump in, try this circuit for a little extra booty work! Do each exercise with reps of 10 or 15, and then circle back around to see how many sets you can do. Shoot for 5 sets and get silly with it!! Fitness doesn’t have to be work! 😉
