Hot Fitness Tip

     

When building triceps, it is important to properly warm up prior to beginning the workout. Warm-up with two sets of triceps press-down exercises using a moderately heavy weight. Typically eight to 10 repetitions per set is adequate to warm up any muscle group. Since the triceps are a smaller muscle, many trainers choose to exercise the triceps prior to working on biceps or the back. The triceps typically have begun to tire from working on the biceps and back and are easily strained before even working on them. Add a routine specifically for building triceps, the result would be bigger and better triceps.

 


Words of Inspiration

     

Accept Change


Change happens to you everyday. People change everyday; they grow. Your circumstances change a bit everyday as something new is thrown into the equation.

There are a multitude of changes happening in your life everyday. Some of the changes bring tears to the eyes, pain to the heart and question your soul. Other bring joy, sheer bliss and gratefulness.

You can survive it all, by taking one day at a time and remembering that it's your perception of change that affects your thoughts, feelings and reactions. Change is hard, at times and usually causes stress. But once you learn some stress relieving techniques, you will surprise yourself as to how calm you can become.
