Fitness Tip of the Week:
  • When working out, more is not always better.  Your body needs time to rest.  There tends to be more progress seen toward the beginning of a workout routine; but over time your body is being worn down and progress will no longer be seen.  This also creates a risk for injury, so the key is to rest up and change the workout routine!
