Hot Mustang of the Week spotlights students on campus and how we’re keeping fit and looking good.

Our first interviewee this week is Alex Bjornnes, a freshman in business from Minneapolis, Minnesota.
The Daily Campus: What does fitness mean to you?
Bjornnes: Fitness is something that I used to dread, but I began going to yoga every day a few years ago and it changed how I viewed everything in my day. I think with fitness, you have to do what you enjoy. I don’t love running, so instead, I’ll do interval training with exercises that I can interchange each time I work out to keep it interesting.
The Daily Campus: What are you wearing?
Bjornnes: I’m a huge fan of lululemon because they truly make fashionable workout wear that is both functional and fashion-foreword. I can wear it to work out and then run errands after. Currently, I’m wearing the lululemon Inner Strength tank in Oasis with Wunder Under crops and Nike Cross Train shoes.
The Daily Campus: What is your favorite work-out activity?
Bjornnes: I am a huge yoga fan and practice all different types. My favorite is called Sculpt, which is a combo of hot yoga and lightweights. The guys think it’s a sissy workout, but the men who do it usually can’t stay the whole class and many of them are seasoned runners and bodybuilders. The yoga moves at a fast pace in a room of about 100 degrees and you use lightweights to use every muscle in your body. I love that it’s cardio with yoga all in one mixed with great music!
