Your 6-Week Spring Fitness Plan

Your 6-Week Spring Fitness Plan

We’ve probably all gained a few extra pounds this winter. It’s been pretty cold, so we’ve been layered up in clothes and worrying a little less about what’s underneath. We’re probably getting less sun, too, depriving us of essential Vitamin D. With the official start of spring just a few weeks away, it’s time to turbocharge our routine with a six-week workout plan.

Don’t worry about the details because we’ve got it all figured out for you below. But if you do need any help, we’re just a phone call away. And remember, talk to a doctor before making any fitness changes and warm up for five to seven minutes before each workout.
