WELCOME TO THE BEGINNER SERIES

New to working out or currently exercising 2 days a week or less? The Beginner series is where you will want to start.

Some of the exercises will use a chair. Make sure the chair you are using does not have wheels. If it does, lean it against a wall or stable surface so it does not slide. If a sturdy chair is not available, we recommend that you use a sturdy desk, table or bench. For demo purposes, we will be using a chair.

Don’t forget to hydrate with water every 10–15 minutes during the workouts, especially on cardio days!
