38 Min Full Body Strength Superset + HIIT Finisher is Day 20 in Heather Robertson‘s HR12Week 5.0 program. I found this workout very challenging this morning.

41MIN Power Pilates // Day 19: HR12WEEK 5.0
41 Min Power Pilates is Day 19 in Heather Robertson‘s HR12Week 5.0 program. Heather's power pilates workouts are killer! They kick my butt every time.

CGX: P.E. Program Day 19: ‘Quads, glutes, then the hamstrings… jumping optional’
This is a workout from Caroline Girvan‘s CGX app. For more info on Caroline’s App, see the CGX App page. Another tough and thorough lower body workout. For the first part you get some nice long recoveries, so I was able to lift heavier than I normally would in a P.E. workout. But it is deceiving. The … Continue reading CGX: P.E.

This is a workout from Caroline Girvan‘s CGX app. For more info on Caroline’s App, see the CGX App page. This was a very tough lower body workout.
