Crunches in High Heels
Submitted by Turbulence Training Blog
Here’s another one for the history books…today at the gym I saw a girl doing crunches while wearing high heels. And yes, it seemed as awkward for her as it looked. I have nothing against high heels, but the crunches were useless…
My workout was not bad…moving on to the lower body/torso training Workout B of the Turbulence Training 2K3 program. I switched it up a little.

My legs will be sore tomorrow, even though I held back on the heavy weights today. It was the lunges that got them.
One last tip before I go…
If you are going to do cleans - or “what you think are cleans” - don’t do them with a fixed barbell, and don’t just reverse curl the weight from your hips to your shoulders. That is lame.
Either learn how to do it properly, or find something else to do.
You can’t clean a body bar,

PS - I’m looking for a good gym near the World Trade Center area of NYC for Thursday…anyone, anyone?
Jay Ferruggia said there is a Gold’s Gym near there but if you have a better idea, let me know.
