Can I just confirm that at the beginner level this would equate to a total of 4 minutes for 1 circuit
Yes, that's right.
i just did this and i was slightly confused.. im so sorry. ;-;
so you do each of these for 20 seconds, then go on to the next?
thats what i did, and i've built up a lot of sweat. maybe because i've been out of shape.
but i'm looking forward to coming back to you with results!
Yes Ashley. That's great!
I have fibro and have basically not moved my body much for over a year. I am trying to start out slow. I know I can do this one. I've been doing planks already. Thank you so very much for the beginner routines. Perfect for people with chronic help problems!
