One of the biggest myths about women who strength train is that they’ll end up looking like a man.

"This week, I had zero motivation to go to the gym. I’ve been following my workout program for a while now, but I really needed a little extra push to get me to the gym. It was my gym manager who suggested I swap out my usual workouts for some virtual fitness classes. Challenge accepted!"

Let’s face it, in life it’s great to have choice. Even more so when it comes to working out. And boy, are there a lot of workout options! There are so many, in fact, that it can be easy to get lost in all the options and feel overwhelmed by them.

There are many reasons to work out, and you probably already know several. But how about listing 125 of them (you heard me, 125!), right here, readily accessible for you to read when motivation is running low (or simply for pleasure)?

Burpees are the perfect exercise to work out your entire body. In fact, this exercise requires a great deal of energy and involves many muscles. So it’s an excellent idea to integrate burpees into your workout.  Watch this short video by Coach Jen to learn how to do them correctly.
