Challenge of the week

Stand up!

The average American can spend up to 21 hours a day sitting. This includes, driving, work and sitting around watching tv. That much sitting can have negative effects on your health such as lower back problems, obesity, high blood pressure and much more.

So why go to the gym to sit down? Find exercises that allow you to stand up to train. This can be as simple as standing up to do shoulder presses, squat cleans, dead lifts or even hop on the TRX.

Don't know how to use the TRX? Schedule a session with a trainer to get to know the ropes. (no pun intended...)
