I am sure as you can tell by looking at it, there are alot of exercises. I was able to finish the workout but I didn't have much time to do my cardio.

Next time I will elminate some exercises so I  will have time for more cardio. Overall it was a good fullbody

Check out this cool tip if you use the Elliptical:

YOUR FORM
The mistake: Too little resistance. "Some people go so fast that it's almost momentum working for them as opposed to their having to propel the step," says Holdsworth.
The fix: Set the resistance correctly. Gliding isn't good. "When you make a revolution, you want to feel you're pushing the ramp down," says Holdsworth. "Have weight there rather than flipping around freely." As your balance improves, keep your hands at your sides; you'll recruit core muscles to keep yourself stable.

YOUR WORKOUT
The mistake: Falling into boring ruts.
The fix: Do intervals. "You'll be able to reach a higher intensity for a sustained period of time," says Holdsworth. Try 90-second blasts every few minutes, with recoveries twice as long. "As your fitness level increases, reduce the recovery time," says Holdsworth.

I am happy the week is over, this was a great fitness week for me. I hope it was for you too.

My Healthy change for the day...Think positive when reaching for your goal.

Thanks you reading,
