    Let’s Lose Some Fat Mass…

You are supposed to aim for 100% effort each set and see how long you can maintain at the same number of reps/distance/force whatever you are doing. take pushups for example, lets say i do 15 in the first round then...

    Where do you measure quad / leg size?

    Snap fitness is one of the 24 hour ones right? I was under the impression they were allowed minimal free weights (dumbells, oly bars) and more focused on machines/treadmills/bikes/steppers etc?
