The Healthy Bride

Here is a killer workout for a rainy weekend:

Use a treadmill or elliptical

Lunges with weights for 3 minutes
Back to cardio intervals 3 minutes
Squats to overhead press 3 minutes

Cardio 3 minutes
Supine Leg curls with ball – 3 sets of 15 with a break between sets

Cardio 3 minutes
Standing Quad extensions with Bands 3 sets of 15 each leg (straighten leg in front of you without moving your hip)

3 minutes cardio intervals
Pushups with one hand on a ball, roll the ball back and forth between your hands each rep.   Do 3 sets of 25
Cardio intervals 3 minutes
Lat Rows 3 sets 15
Cardio Intervals
Biceps curls
Triceps dips
3 sets 15 each

Abs session – 40 crunch, bicycles, 25 reverse crunch, 25 obliques each way

I have had several brides contact me this past week asking about classes this fall and winter.  I do have all this posted on The Healthy Bride website, but for some reason, it’s not being found.  Sorry about that!!  I will be changing the site soon and hopefully this will eliminate some of the finding problems.

Until then, here are details of what is happening now, and what is to come in 2010.
