Flexible Fridays ♥

Best Stretches

Standing on one leg bend leg into centre and place ankle on the opposite knee. Begin to squat down as low as you can. Bring yourself back up and alternate legs.

This exercise stretches your glutes. Remember do not push yourself too hard because you do not want to pull the muscles. You should feel the stretch as you squat towards the ground. This exercise not only stretches but it also is excellent to teach you balance.

Happy Stretching!

Exercises for Women

Women have special needs when it comes to staying fit. I discovered through my own attempts to get fit that most exercise and diet programs simply don't work for women. As a registered nurse I began to study nutrition for women, became a certified personal trainer and developed workout and diet programs just for women.

My program, FULL-BODY-LICIOUS, is designed to meet the special needs of women. From exercises just for us, to the special nutrition needs of women, I'll help you understand your body better and learn to live a more healthy and fit lifestyle.
