Fitness Tip of the Day: Total Body Workout Day 5/Phase I--BeFit in 90




Continuing on with the BeFit in 90 workout series, here is day 5.  Three of these videos were done before, with one being new, so you should feel pretty comfortable doing this workout.  There is no separate cardio workout, but if you do the strength exercises one after another like performed in the videos, you will get cardio benefits.  The yoga portion is quite cardio as well, but if you'd like a bit more, do the 10 minute cardio workout from Day 1 along with the four shown here.  Remember when using weights, to control the downward movement of the weights, never let them drop down.

Video 1 is your warm up:


Video 2 is Chest, Legs and Buns:


Video 3 is the new one that works your Back and Shoulders--on the overhead presses, lift the weights slightly to the front, not directly overhead.  Watch the knees on the back lunges, keep them at a 90 degree angle, knees in line with the ankles.  On lateral and front raises, lift the weight up smooth and controlled keeping the rest of your body still and lift no higher than straight out of the body.


and Video 4 is the Yoga Basics Cooldown and Stretch (remember you can do a different one if you'd prefer, but Yoga is really good for your body)
