DAY 17
DAY 17:
Consists of 4 Sections:
- Lite Stretching (5 min)
- A Cardio Warm-up (10 min)
- Strength Training (15 min) NOTE: Rest 90 Seconds between Sets
- Core (5 min)
NOTE: Each Workout ends with a Bonus Burnout! (2 min)
TIP: Burnouts aid in depleting that last bit of glycogen stored in your muscles. This encourages any carbs you might eat through out the course of the day to be stored as Glycogen in the muscle instead of Fat!

STRENGTH: 20-30 reps with the muscle of choice.
CORE: 2-3 minutes of planks, sit-ups or pushups.
