Strictly Strength Workout 3/22/13

Strictly Strength equipment for class
In the Strictly Strength class on Friday, March 22 we did upper body/lower body pairs (Super Sets).  This is also known in some texts as Peripheral Heart Action Training as it causes an increase in heart rate because of an increase in blood flow to the muscles going from upper body to lower body exercises.  We used an Exercise Mat, Stability Ball, Resist-A-Band, Figure-8 Band and two different size pairs of Dumbbells.  The workout is listed below:
