A Post on Safe Shoveling for a Healthy Back and a Clean Driveway ;-b by Chanhassen Personal Trainer Justin Yule, BS, CPT, FMS
We’re officially in the midst of another winter season here in Minnesota. I must admit, if there’s one thing that bothers me the most about the winter (besides the sickly cold and lack of natural light), it’s shoveling snow.

Summer is just around the corner…
Other than wanting to look great in your bathing suit, I know you also want to feel and perform great.
One of the things that I really enjoy in the summer is going on intense bike rides with my buddy Tom. Well, he’s what I would call a “no joke” rider. He puts in some serious mileage. The nut job rides year round, even in the winter here in MN!

40:20 Total Body Annihilation Circuits
That’s a pretty scary name for a circuit workout, but it’s the first thing that came to mind after I crafted this one up.
You see, Workout Muse now has a killer set of soundtracks featuring of Montreal and I’m really having a blast coming up with some new high intensity interval training (HIIT) workouts using them.

This makes for an incredible muscle building workout that sends your metabolism through the roof!
However, with the new of Montreal soundtrack I was inspired to try something new with my favorite format. Take a look… Read more on 40:20 Total Body Annihilation Circuits…
