Cardio Kick and Ab Burner

As I created this post, I see that it is my 99 blog post!!! Very exciting! I think the next workout will focus on "100"... Thoughts??

As mentioned in post #98, Cardio and Core, last week's Get Fit for United Way campaign, we focused on the cardiovascular system and core, or abdominal strengthening. Thursday's workout was inside; first we got warmed up by focusing on the cardio system, then kept our heart rates elevated and the sweat pouring as we concentrated on our abdominal and glutes using our mats!
