N2SHAPE News & Exercise Prescriptions for June

Message from Ellen

It's the end of the month and time for me to do your Weekly Exercise Prescriptions.  With the start of a new month, N2SHAPE will be switching to monthly exercise prescriptions.  Why? 

1.  We can spend more time educating ourselves to bring you the latest exercises and research in the industry.
2.  Give you monthly goals that you are accountable to so that if you have a bad week or week that you are away, you can still meet them. 
3.  Give you N2SHAPE News in the form of an Newsletter combined with Exercise Prescriptions that also include the monthly schedule. 

If you think that this is a bad idea, let me know.  I always appreciate your feedback as you are my bosses and without it, N2SHAPE cannot strive to be all that it can be!
