Stretch 'heated' muscles........


Thanks ZoneCoach! I will keep this in mind for my aerobics.

But, in Body for Life, Bill Phillips mentioned stretching wasn't necessary for the lifting workouts because of how much weight you start with (or rather, you aren't lifting too much at first, therefore I'm "stretching" those muscle groups before their heavy workout). Do you stretch before your lifting workouts? Are you familiar with the Body for Life workout program?

Thanks in advance!

I have found that our lifting workouts are much better accomplished in the latter part of the day as well. I was under the impression that the mornings were best, but we have seven kids and that makes for a big challenge in scheduling. That's OK though, 'cause we're doin' this together and that's what we wanted.

I will just do without coffee on my aerobic days . (I couldn't stand coffee without cream!) Maybe if it's the caffeine, I try something else.....black tea maybe.

I read you were going on vacation, soon, Nat. Have the best of fun!!!

Thanks in advance!
