To be honest this was my first real workout besides Pilates in a couple of years and I loved it! Made me remember what I like about the gym and wasn’t so hard that I wanted to give up. And it didn’t kill my knees!

I feel like every muscle in my legs have been worked and I got it done in under an hour. Amazing!
