1:00 p.m. EDT | Fitness and Wellness Warriors

Having good form and technique is very important when exercising so that we
don't hurt ourselves. 

Special guest, Maureen  Hobbs, a personal trainer friend of Lily's, will
teach about good form when exercising.

She  is willing to observe whoever wants to be observed working out and help
them fix their form and technique. Participants can turn on their zoom
cameras as they're doing the exercise and she can help correct them.
