Margie Weiss: Hi, my name is Margie Weiss. I have been in the fitness industry for about 38 years. As a child I was a national level gymnast and as an adult I have run gymnastic teams. I have owned Gold s Gyms. I am currently the Group Exercise Director at a number clubs and I teach classes at them. I also personal train especially athletes and young children to try to attain a better level of fitness in the sports that they do. What we are going to do today is a quad workout. A lot of different exercises for one muscle group. The quads are one of the main muscle groups of the body. They are very big, takes a lot of calories, a lot of energy to work them. The object behind doing a number of different exercises that I am going to show you is that any muscle if you do just the same exercise is not going to get the benefits that you would get if you did a variety of exercises because you want to surprise the body at all times, so that it never quite knows what s coming next. In terms of what you are going to need beside from a good pair of aerobic shoes and an outfit that s a little bit stretchy but not too bulky so that it could get caught in the equipment. We are going to show you a lot of different exercises. Now, you may not have all of these equipments, so you can pick and choose some of the exercises so that you can get a variety but if you can get into a gym, some of these different exercise pieces of equipment are really good for doing especially quads because they are such a big muscle group. That being said, I am going to get on with quads, quads and more quads.
