Don’t Fall Short – Work All Muscles For Best Results

Blessed with a great upper body? Well, don’t just work your legs – and vice versa.Â Don’t just work the body parts you think you need to improve because more than likely you will end up ignoring some larger muscle groups which burn the most calories and boost your metabolism. You also want to be balanced and working only a few areas can set you up for injury. You can work different muscles on different days, but make sure you hit ALL muscles every week. I personally prefer to do total body workouts at almost every workout.Â

Hi! I'm Cari! I'm a fitness star turned Mom of 3 who lives in Houston, TX. Getting fit and healthy is a journey and one I understand well. After graduating from college I worked in a corporate setting for many years and gained a lot of weight and had an unhealthy lifestyle. Finally, after I had enough - I decided to regain my healthy lifestyle that I had in college by fitting in workouts and eating healthier. Eventually, I left my corporate job to become a full-time personal trainer and group fitness instructor. I also created Bombshell Bootcamp over 10 years ago and it has become one of Houston's top bootcamps! My passion then turned into greater opportunities to write workouts for national magazines, appear on tv doing workouts and speaking about healthy and fitness, making fitness DVD's and working with many celebrities. Fast forward a few years....and then I had my first baby! I'm now a Mom of 3 little ones and try to incorporate healthy living and exercise in our family's lives. Not only do I still blog about workouts and fitness, but I have shifted some to include family fitness, family travel, fashion, health/beauty and general lifestyle.
