A cheap workout



Did you check out any of these McDonald's promotional deals they are giving out with the new Asian Salads and bottled water? I have all except the Cardio.
The DVD's are 15 minute workouts that have some value.
When I did the Core workout I felt some burn in my abs. I modified some of the exercises by holding dumbbells which gave me more of a challenge.
The strength workout caused my Adductor Magnus to be sore the next day. The soreness came from all the pleia squats with dumbbells.
I haven't done the Yoga DVD but was able to view some of the workouts and decided that it would be a good cool down following the Core and Strength workouts.
If you are looking for a cheap workout then these easy to do 15 minute workouts are a quick fix.

10 years ago if someone had said MCd's would be selling salads and exercise videos I'd have laughed at them. Change for the good.

So McDs are no longer in the burger business? :0

I wonder if they will bring this up to Canada.

A co-worker has collected them and was impressed. Kudo's to Mickie D's... now cut all the garbage from the menu and they'd really be o.k.

Speaking of quick and easy; I recently purchased a Sports Conditioning Mini Yoga Workouts that has several different 8-minute routines for different sports like running, cycling, swimming, golf, etc. I plan to incorporate them into my post-workout cool-down and stretching in addition to my regular practice.
