It’s Day #7 of week 6!

Don’t forget to check into the group on Facebook and give your feedback on today’s circuit.

3 Minute Stretch

Making a switch from the ’round’ format, today we attack cardio with a pyramid setup. We will start with a small number of reps, incrementally increasing to a higher number before taking a short break. After the break, we will start at the top of the pyramid and work our way back down to a lower number. We will close the show with pyramid abs following the same pattern as the cardio segment.
