Circuit Training Workouts
By: Janel Brown
With the coming of Fall, comes new routines and kids going back to school. One of the main struggles I hear from busy Moms & Dads is that they have absolutely no time to workout. These workouts will have you in and out in 30 minutes or Under.
As always ask the advice of your health care professional.
