Fitness Friday * Be a form fanatic

Better form in the gym means a better form for you!

No leaning * unless maybe your gym is in Pisa. Don’t lean on the handrails of the stair climber, elliptical trainer, or treadmill. Carry your own weight and stand up straight, as though there’s a string coming out of your head and pulling you up. Use the handrails for balance, but never for holding yourself up.

The side benefit of standing up straight? Less chance of a back or wrist injury.
