I’m no stranger to weak arms. Growing up a runner, you can bet I never performed a dumbbell arm workout!

Heck, I never learned what a proper push-up looked like…let alone could do one.

My arm weakness became embarrassingly evident when I went to college. I struggled to get luggage into the train’s overhead rack while traveling during Christmas break. And turning a patient during nursing school clinicals was always accompanied by a snide remark about how I’d need help.

I’m definitely not the most buff human around now either, but I never wanted to worry about not being able to lift something by myself. Those little moments were the jumping off points for my dedication to weight training.

“It isn’t called high intensity for nothing.”

We’ve all heard the claims that high intensity interval training (HIIT) is an excellent way to burn fat. But do you know exactly what qualifies as HIIT and how to perform HIIT correctly? Some simple changes could be the difference between you getting all the benefits that HIIT has to offer…and just getting a good workout. And trust me, you want all those HIIT benefits.

Not sure how I haven’t thought to write this post before! After all, YouTubers were a huge reason I got so interested in health and wellness in the first place.

Today I’m sharing the top YouTube channels for health and wellness! The cream of the crop. The diamonds in the rough. So to speak.
