Double Dip

You mean a double dip ice cream cone?

Uh, no.

An exercise tip. About your dips.

With some upper body resistance training you can do both sides at the same time - triceps kickbacks, double arm rows, triceps dips...

DON'T

Do your triceps kickback on one side, then alternate sides back and forth. While one side rests, the other gets worked out. A big joint strainer on your upper body joints to do the double technique.

Ditto with the rows: Do single arm rows in good form and alternate side to side.

I don't take rests between sets and just alternate which gets you worked out quicker.

WHAT ABOUT TRICEPS DIPS?

This is a double dip you just do not want to do in your routine. A real strainer load on your shoulder joints.

AND YOU WOULD NEVER STEP UP TO THE ICE CREAM COUNTER AND ASK FOR A DOUBLE DIP!

Portion control, ladies. The only way to approach rich desserts that make life so much sweeter...and you would eat this after a meal.

You would ask for a little, ittle, tinsy dip - or 1/2 cup portion of ice cream.

And how sweet it is, even in tiny amounts.

Fitness goals achieved:
floor ab workout, bum bun workout done (just fit in squats, arabesques)

FITNESS GOALS:

freeform movement - just move when opportunity arises.
maybe some light cardio of a few minutes fittingly fitted in...
and don't forget: ab pull ins, pelvic floor lifts and the kegels - Don't ever forget the Kegels - and no, that's not the name of those neighbors that moved last summer.
