Summer has arrived and you are still able to look your best with the Summer Shred Special! Even though the heat and humidity are high you can still have quality results from your workouts. Summer Shred Special runs through August 31st.

Heavy dumbbell bench press tonight for these ladies. Janet top set with 40lbs for 8 reps and top set with 45lbs for 8 reps! Both still had some strength left in their tanks. Both work twice a week to increase their strength.

Even these two good boys can get worn out at the gym! Dogs at the gym make training more fun!
