Bored with your workouts?

Switch it up!

Your body physically and mentally needs a change once in a while. Here's a few reasons why change is GOOD for you.

1. You'll stimulate your mind which increases association of movement AND will burn more calories (according to a Harvard study comparing mentally associated vs disassociated movement 2012).
2. Your bones, joints, and muscles could use a break from repetitive movement. Always performing the same specific movement patterns can lead to imbalance in the body.
3. You may find something that you really love and are passionate about that you never knew. Jumping rope and TRX are my new favorite workouts, but only picked them up a few years ago when I saw others playing with them.

Try something new the next time you decide to sweat. I guarentee you will not regret it!
