    BONUS BURNOUT

    THE BONUS BURNOUT PHILOSOPHY

    Focus on your weakness for 2-3 minutes – go until you can’t complete another rep! Here are a list of ideas:

    CARDIO: Sprint for 2-3 minutes on the machine of your choice.
    STRENGTH: 20-30 reps with the muscle of choice.
    CORE: 2-3 minutes of planks, sit-ups or pushups.

    End breathing hard with a good sweat!
