HOLIDAY HUSTLE PART 1 - TOTAL BODY

Put some muscle behind your hustle this holiday season to power you through your day.

It’s been a tradition to start the holiday season off with a special series of workouts to get you moving, grooving, and sweating during your holiday hustle. This year is no different and we’re bringing you a brand new Holiday Series specially crafted to offer a variety of short and efficient circuit routines that maximizes time and will leave you energized all day long.

So get ready to burn it off this holiday season with a series of workouts that builds your spirits (and muscles) and burns off stress (and calories) too.

The holiday series is broken down into five workouts, each having a primary focus:
1. Total Body [longest workout in the series]
2. Cardio Blast
3. Lower Body
4. Upper Body & Core
5. Flow Fusion [yoga and Pilates movements]

These routines can be performed individually or combined together for a longer workout session. The best part is that you can keep them short and sweet by doing 1 complete set, or extend your workout time by performing multiple sets.
