Best Activity in Your Workouts: Super-setting technique, which gives one body part or muscle group time to rest while exercising a different part. This is great for beginners, who might struggle doing consecutive sets. Also like to focus on lower body, larger muscle groups, which offer greater calorie burn.
Favorite phrases to motivate: "Think like a champ!" and "You rock!" They're even painted on the walls of our gym.
Favorite Everyday Activity that Helps Tone/Burn Calories: Brisk walking; it keeps the heart rate right in the optimal fat-burning zone.
