A Foolproof Way To Strengthen Your Arms

How To Perform A Bicep Curl While You're Leaning Against A Wall - Jennifer Ledford - Strengthen Your Arms

One of the top reasons that a person will hire a personal trainer is to make sure they are performing their exercises correctly and using proper form.  Proper form while strength training is incredibly important because it helps prevent injuries and ensure that you are getting the most out of the exercise.

​​​​​​​When I first started working in the fitness industry, you would have had to schedule a private session with me to learn proper form.  Not so anymore, thanks to technology!

In today’s video I share one of the safest, simplest, and most effective exercises I know of that strengthens and tones the biceps.  It’s simple to do on your own and great for all levels of fitness.

Here’s to keeping fitness safe and simple.

​​​​​​​Enjoy the video and have a great week!

How To Perform The Bird Dog by Jennifer Ledford

Staying strong is important.  However, so is having fun and enjoying your summer.  Most people would rather not spend a beautiful summer day in the gym but would still like to squeeze in a few strength training moves here and there during the day.  If that’s you, body weight exercises are a great way to make that happen.

Most body weight exercises can be performed almost anywhere and they require little to no equipment.  Even if you love going to the gym, they are a great substitute for your favorite piece of equipment on the days you can’t make it to the gym, while you are traveling, or while you are waiting in line.

In today’s video I demonstrate a timeless exercise called the “bird dog.”  This exercise is a great way to tone and strengthen your core and upper body.  It requires no equipment and you can perform it anywhere that you feel comfortable being on your knees.  NO gym required.

​​​​​​​Enjoy the video and have a fantastic week!
