I can’t believe its already week 3 of the #BosuStrong challenge, time flies when  you’re having fun! Last week we focused on balance and I was proud of myself for working on my tree pose. This week its all about stretching and toning – so make sure you join in on the fun!

Since we’re talking about stretching here are 5 of my all time favorite stretches:

• I love to stretch my legs by doing calf stretches_.
• My favorite total body stretch is__corpse pose.
• I swear when I do_wall sits_, it feels like _my legs will fall off__.
• I stretch my mind by _reading. a lot___.
• I try to stretch out of my comfort zone by_trying new things that scare me.

And if you’re looking for a great way to tone your _legs_, here are my fave 3 tips (tricks, advice, words of wisdom, etc):

1.  stretch after every run
2. squats squats squats
