Just did the arm circles - forgot how tired your arms get while doing them.0

haha, my arms get tired and I do it with NO weights. Great job 0

Did the arm circles. A lot harder than I realized. I'm really proud I did them!0
-
Wow. I was really surprised how hard the arm circles were & equally surprised at how one side was much harder than the other! I guess I just proved what I read in Fitness magazine this month that people tend to exercise their "mirror muscles" (what we can see in the mirror, like the chest) & neglect those in the back (like the rear shoulders).0

How many calories burnt for that one?0 -

I use a very very rough estimate. your body weight x 0.096. then take that number and mulitply for the minutes you did the exercise for. It probably overshoots it, but it helps to get an idea. 0 -
