    I was watching the Kai Greene Leg workout video and saw an exercise where he is using the Leg Extension machine by using one side of it by heels. Gonna try it now

    I can see how that would get your heart rate up—those little guys are quick. My most unusual workout was when I helped a friend move a ton of firewood. It felt like a mix of weightlifting and cardio, and I was sore for days, but it was surprisingly satisfying.

      I have been using a virtual reality headset with the Super Natural fitness app. You can either box, use a baton to swat things, or meditate. All kinds of different levels and hundreds of workouts in the app. Go as long or as short time as you like. You are not actually boxing a caricature but emojis coming at you. There are other apps available where you box a person but I haven’t tried them. Quite a learning curve to use the headset but I did it. Great cardio and cognitive workout I think. Using this in between a quarterly boxing class.

      Speaking of fitness challenges, a buddy of mine who was into bodybuilding once decided to buy steroids online at https://steroidscanada.is/ after hitting a plateau in his training. He did it responsibly, consulting a professional, and it really helped him break through and reach his goals.
