Virtual workout
To celebrate the start of social distancing, week #2, here is your virtual Q. I wrote it to be FNG (friendly new guy) friendly, so feel to share or forward to anyone that may be interested.
Select a track or a block of your neighborhood (bonus points for a block that involves lots of hills!). Workout involves running around said location, stopping along the way for 4 pain stations at which you will perform the exercises described below. Continue repeating the circuit for 45 minutes.
Enjoy
