LCF’s “PULL WORKOUT” ~ Get in full swing, wit
Hey Labrada fans! 🙂 I am that your summer is in full “swing” and going great! However, make sure that you do not bring this “swing” with you to the gym! When performing your exercises, make sure that you are focusing on the muscle that you are working. Especially when performing your BACK and BICEP workouts, do not sacrifice your form by going TOO HEAVY and forcing you to “swing” the weight up in order to “lift” it…Understand that in doing so, you are using momentum to move the weight MORE than the targeted MUSCLE…No “cheating” allowed in this workout! 🙂 If you find yourself doing this, check your ego at the door 🙂 and lift properly! LET’S GET TO TRAINING! 🙂
