This week we are talking about women’s safety and self defense. Today we have some excellent advice about what to do if you’re approached by a stranger while walking to your car or down the street. Our expert guest bloggers, Tracy & Charley Vega, owners of Simple Self Defense For Women, promote how to “simply escape an attack, NOT stay and fight!”

Lift It!
Put your head and shoulders on a bosu or if you don’t have a bosu you could elevate your head and shoulders on some sturdy pillows. Have a heavy hand weight next to you for use in this exercise. Elevate your butt and hips similiar to a bridge position in yoga. Place the hand weight on your abs – you might have to lightly hold it so it will not roll off . Keep your weight in the heels of your feet and raise your butt – with the weight on your abs – up and down. Do at least three sets of 8.
