Started in my usual way, but then added music to the workout and that transformed the moves into more expressive movement patterns and explored some different shapes within the sets.. super enjoyable!

Enjoyed that, I've got spaghetti for legs now 🤣

Great cardio from the plyo and the supersets and squat series were sneaky-challenging and fun.

BS [PHASE 2] Week 2 / Day 4: Lower Body

Great workout. Sadly the offline download works only for half the exercises, and the next exercise tap is almost impossible to find...
