Workout Moves
I have a great group of followers who are starting their own workout cult! It’s not quite a cult, but they are wanting a challenging workout that makes them sweat, and they aren’t finding it where they are.
There will be 2 workouts published this week: One these rebels have done, and one they have not done.
Here is the workout which is similar to the one they did last Saturday – My workout crew and I did this one this week. It’s definitely a keeper!
Remember – you don’t have to complete the entire program to get an effective workout. Take it in pieces if you need to. Each move is modifiable.
I use my Gymboss Interval Timer which you can get here – but you don’t have to. You can use a watch timer or you can decide on a number of repetitions and just count.
There is no special equipment for this workout. You will need a towel to wipe the sweat off!
