BASIC BODY BURN II

Basic Body Burn II is a full body work-out designed for beginners. Don’t let it’s simplicity fool you though. You will definitely feel the burn, especially if you haven’t worked out in a long time! In fact, it is easily modified for those at a higher fitness level as well just by increasing reps or sets or by altering the movement. So feel free to keep this one in your rotation even as you advance.
