I took a fitness class yesterday called Total Body Training. The class focused on balance, coordination, strength, and cardiovascular fitness. While keeping the weight lifted light, I had a great workout by doing every repetition in perfect form and posture. Taking a fitness class was an excellent way to evaluate my fitness level and learn new techniques.

  • 1-leg squat with 1 foot on a BOSU
  • curls
