Training for Successful Weight Loss!
Here’s a basic fitness plan outline (with workout examples) you can implement today for maximum fat loss. Each week should consist of functional, resistance, plyometric and cardio workouts. The exercises should change to continuously challenge the body but the outline can remain the same for 12 weeks.
*Be sure to check with your doctor before starting this or any other workout program.

Thanks Nathan!! Just what I needed to get the new year started.
You’ve probably seen the new Healthworks at Coke. They did a great job on the renovation but I miss the old gym. 🙁
Hope you are well. It looks like you’re very happy. I’m happy for you! Thanks again for the workout!
Take care!
