Circuit Workout

Grab your mat, a stability ball, some water and a towel.


Don’t forget to warm-up and stretch – 5 min. – before you begin your workout.

Go straight through the circuit with no rest. 


After the 4 exercises are complete, rest 1 min and repeat the circuit- 4x.

Do one of these 3 workouts 4x a week. 


Alternate the workouts.


It should take about 25 min to complete the workout.


A gentle reminder: if there is one particular routine that you don’t like, it’s probably the one you need to do most often 🙂
