    Sometimes, we’re so focused on the mirror that we forget to tone the parts of us that we don’t see everyday; mainly the muscles in our backs.

    We all love the sight of a lean, toned & strong back but for women, these muscles are ESPECIALLY important since we need the uh… extra support. If you’ve been blessed with a little extra mammary action, working your back is essential to help prevent pain & discomfort. Strengthening your back muscles helps with posture, prevents injury, improves balance & takes the pressure off your core.

    This is a quick & effective routine that you can do at home OR at the gym.

    Tip: You can do this routine on its own or combine it with a little cardio. To get a higher calorie burn, follow each move (or every other move) with 30-60 seconds of cardio. Jumping jacks, high knees, run/jog etc. You’ll boost your heart rate & scorch calories during both the cardio & strength sections.
