Tips to Make the Most of Your Workouts:
Have your equipment nearby before starting each session to minimize interruptions.
Select weights that feel challenging but manageable, especially for longer workouts like the 50-minute and 40-minute sessions.
Booty bands and ankle weights should provide moderate resistance to maintain good form throughout the workout.
Remember to stay hydrated, take breaks as needed, and listen to your body! For more tips, guidance, and new routines, subscribe to Jacinta’s Posture Tonic YouTube channel.
