No fancy gym equipment? No problem. The bodyweight workouts require only the space of a yoga mat. The third cycle continues to focus on building up to a one-arm push up.

The workouts are scheduled three days per week – Monday, Wednesday, and Friday – but feel free to jump in at any time. Please warm up your body with joint mobility to prepare for your workout. Yoga can provide excellent cross-training for this programming.
