SQUAT HOLD | WORKS GLUTES, QUADS & HAMSTRINGS. keep your chest upright, and drive your weight through your heels. hold the squat down for 10-15 seconds.
Make sure you’re holding it for 10-15 seconds! Anything less doesn’t actually burn the fat or strengthen the muscle, since anything less would be relying on the impetus of gravity for the push (a bouncing sort of movement, instead of jumping, if that makes sense) and not on your muscles.

she reminds me of the woman we saw at the gym last week.
Kat: “Mel, look at her muscles! Her arms, her back! Ohmygoshh.”
Mel: “You should go ask her about her workouts, babe!”
Kat: *blushing*”No no no I couldn’t!” 
A few minutes later, Mel moved to the machine she had been using, and she came back and asked him if she could use it for one more set. After he smiled and offered it to her, he came back over to my machine as I squealed:
Kat: “You got to talk to her! Eeeeeee you’re so lucky!!!”

Hi new followers!

Mel just went to sleep, but you can bet your butts that as soon as I wake up in the morning, I’m dragging his little ass out of bed and we’re gonna catch up on all the pullups/burpees we promised that we’d do in our ‘about me’. So excited!

Good night all! xo
