How To Warm Up Before You Workout
What’s the proper way to warm up before a weight training workout? Should you stretch first? Should you do some cardio? Is a warm up really needed? One of keys to having a successful workout is the mental and physical preparation that you do before you hit the gym floor.

Total Body Dumbbell Workout
When I was a kid my dad had a York Barbell & Dumbbell set down in our basement and that’s how I got started with weight training.
