The FJ Weekly Roundup

And a good day to you my fellow wellness lovers. Today starts the beginning of a new weekly post that is about sharing the knowledge. There are so many great sources out there and it would be unfair to deprive you of them, just so that we can keep you on our blog. That’s why we at Fit Junction have decided to bring you a weekly round up of interesting news items and posts that we come across each week. 
So lets get to it....

50 Legs
Posted at theworkout.com blog, this is a challenging and intensive leg workout with many squat variations. Be sure not to rest for more than the mentioned time. 

FJ Challenge: If you really want to push the limits and feel you have some energy left, then do five 12-15 seconds sprints immediately after the last exercise of this workout. Rest a maximum of 45 seconds in between each sprint. This will be great for improving your endurance and will have your metabolism revving for the next few hours.Please note that this challenge is NOT a part of the 50 Legs workout article. It is just an FJ recommendation
