Abs Circuit w/ Gabby
You can follow Gabby's expert lead (and huff and puff along with Susan) in this circuit, part of our "Breaks" playlist on YouTube.
This one focuses on your core, but also on endorphins (nature's painkillers) created through exercise. We all need exercise right now, to boost our immune systems, tone our muscles, and MOST IMPORTANTLY, lift our spirits.
