Reece's 'HIGHX Holiday Prep Workout' Tips
Make sure to use weights you’re comfortable with based on your fitness level. Doing the moves safely and correctly is more important than doing them quickly.Make sure to breathe continuously through the activity and try not to hold your breath.Always drink water when you need it.Be willing to push yourself. It's important to challenge yourself, your muscles and your body with different exercises to help you move more and in different ways that you may be used to doing. If it feels easy, be willing to add weight and work a little harder. Everything takes work, so embrace it, and don’t try to avoid the discomfort.
