#7 Two PTs Walk into a Garage
Week 7 had less cardio than last week but focused on the central core a bit more. The days around the menstrual cycle tend to be a little lower in energy for me so it is great to be able to adjust for less cardio and still get a great workout.
The exercises were easily modified for my mom if her knees, wrists, or shoulders were more bothersome. When you watch the video, you can see the differences in how we each complete the exercise.
Reminder – the fancy equipment isn’t needed and can be replaced by anything you have around the house.
