How to use this Workout Routine
You can use this as a standalone routine when all you've got is ten minutes, or you can add this onto the end of any of our strength and cardio routines in order to cool the body down, get a little more out of those muscles, and a bit of a stretch, as well. You can do multiple rounds of this workout to make for a longer sweat session, and you can do this routine multiple times a day. Do give yourself a couple of days off in between workouts if your muscles are very sore from all of the new exercises.
