I did another short lower body workout afterwards that was much easier, but it still challenged me … Continue reading Barlates: Energy Flow/Functional

Total Body is one of Cathe's Advanced Fit Tower workouts. I knew the moment I started previewing this workout I was going to love it and once I did it--loved it!
