Each week we will add a new fulfillment to Debbie's Training Program to get in shape and live healthfully.

With or without a WALKVEST®, walking is the ultimate workout, combining resistance and cardiovascular training in one, WALKVEST® just makes walking MORE effective. Speed up weight loss, increase muscle tone and build bone density by walking in The WALKVEST®.

Try four days of intensive walking training and you'll have a whole different perspective on what walking can do for you.. And by the way, anyone can walk, no excuses, just walk through your own resistance and DO IT.

These work outs can be done on a treadmill or outdoors. Start with one day walk, one day off. After four sets YOU WILL FEEL AND SEE A DIFFERENCE

 Debbie Rocker's Chest and Arms Workout

Chest: behind a couch or stationary piece of furniture

Place hands on the back of the couch, a bit wider than shoulder width apart.
Walk feet way back so that legs are stretched straight out behind you and you get on to your toes.
Your body is still (with your legs straight) and as you bend the elbows and drop the chest your body moves as one unit, like a plank.
Make sure your butt is not sticking up in the air.
Bend your elbows out to the side and drop the chest to the back of the couch and then slowly press back up to straight arms and continue for a count of 8-10 depending on your strength, do 2-3 sets.

Arms/shoulders

Grab 2 cans of soup, one in each hand and lift your arms out in front of you.
The arms are straight, the wrist is relaxed, as though the can would drop out of your hand.
Keep arms outstretched and begin to raise and lower from hip to eye level. The movement is a steady flow, one continuous move, up and down slowly for 10-15 repetitions, 2-3 sets.
You should feel this in your shoulders, it may burn a little..let it burn, keep going.
Then bring the arms out to the side of your body, same movement, slowly up and down, relaxed wrist, steady movement, 10-15 reps, 2-3 sets. this will give your shoulders great definition!
