Exercise of the Day

The exercise of the day that will build muscle and give some cardio benefits is the wood chop. This exercise is executed just like chopping wood, however instead of an axe u will have a weight of some kind. I did three sets of 10, and there are 3 exercises one down the middle and one to either side to target your obliques.
When you are "chopping" make sure to squat down as low as you can go in order to utilize your abs to a greater extent.

This exercise will definitely make you sweat!  :)

For more reference here is a youtube video demonstrating the technique.
