You will help us out a little bit. When it comes to friday. What we need to do to kind of burn off some of the calories and have you some tips. I have a couple of examples and any time are you short on time, and you have, if youre traveling or anything or you want to burn off the big meal, these are quick short and sweet, yet very effective. And one of our exercises we have today, is squat deck. Deck, you take that dumb bell, we have one example right here, with a dumb bell and the other one without the dumb bell, so just get that heart rate up. And you know, burning off those calories and everything and you can use the weight over here and without the weight and move your body. And you sat down all day long and enjoy the meal. And you want to get the body moving and the heart pumping. This is one example. How many should somebody do. I would say with your squat decks, it depends how deep you want to go in the lunge with the squats, in the squat, or how rapidly yo the movement. Really it is what youre looking for, to get your heart rate up or get the squat going. I would say between 15 to 20 reps perhaps for three rounds. Got it. The second one is clock lunges. An effective one. You can use them with weights or without. But this really targets your entire lower body right here. So doing a front lunge. Lateral lunge, reverse lunge and you get the whale quad and jordan is here with a bicep curl and full body workout. Upper body and lower body. When youre short on time and looking to knock it out and get it over with. That is an easy one to do. Absolutely. The third one, so after youre done taking that nap after your thanksgiving meal, this one actually starts on the floor. And we will go for a plank. So plank position right here. You will keep your elbow under your shoulder. And this one targets your core, and your quads right here, as well as your shoulders. And again, right under those shoulders so youre not asking too much of the shoulder joint. But again, like i said, after the nap, roll over and plank it out. And if you want to add Something Else to it, you can do a heel raise right here and get a little glut in there as well. That is intense. I do planks. I keep both feet on the ground. I got to tell you that. Okay. Very nice. So also, you also have 19 locations around the valley, is that right . Yes if youre thinking about a new years resolution. The orange theory. 19 locations around the valley. We definitely have some specials going on, im sure. Come and see us. Jennifer with orange theory, thank you very much. And happy thanksgiving.
