Get Fit with 6: June Challenge

WILMINGTON, N.C. (WECT) - This month we’re working on our core, glutes, hamstrings, inner and outer thighs. These are a little different in that we’re using a 1,2 count to squeeze on the last count and put more concentration on the muscle group. Working on concentric, contracting the muscles, and eccentric, elongating the muscles to work them deper.
