Cardio based workouts for the winter Warm up Calender
Remember if you don’t feel comfortable in the names and the motion of the moves go to the workout dictionary. There you’ll find exactly what the moves should look like and what parts of the body they’ll work! The calendar is 30 days so you can start it on the 1st of the month or start from the first Monday of January (the 4th).
Remember, if you’re struggling, just pause and take a minute to breathe.
Best of Luck!
