Workout 1 for Beginning Groups
Written by Editor // 05/04/2011 // Group Circuit Workout Info, GROUP STARTER WORKOUTS // No comments
Welcome to the Gabby360 Groups workouts! I have put together 4 mellow workouts to get you used to the circuit style and workload. We do circuits for time. The first 4 workouts have less exercises and are for less time than my regular circuits. You will see most of these moves throughout my circuits. I find them very effective and easy to master after you perform them awhile. It’s important you listen to your leader so you know when to switch legs/arms half way through and at the end of each exercise so you move quickly. There is no talking, stopping during my circuits. We are here to workout and get results. Enjoy your first circuit!
