Viewing Tips
  • You can pause or rewind the video at any time if you need a break or need to watch for closer instructions. We suggest watching the video one time through before attempting the workout.

  • This video does not include music, but you can play a stereo or CD in the background as you workout. Just make sure you can still hear the instructions.
