#SnowDayChallenge: Lower Body Blast
BBBRRRRRRR! It was a chilly 63 degrees (Fahrenheit) today. I had to wear a sweater and closed toed shoes. Ok, if you are snowed in somewhere with a REAL winter & are going stir crazy, try this quick workout. It will warm you up!
Equipment: none (add weights, sandbag, or kettle bell to the around the world lunges if you want more of a challenge)
Rounds: as many as you feel up to doing
Time: 1 (barefoot) round took me 8:49 (including a brief water break). You should totally beat my time.

10 around the world lunges on the LEFT leg (1 rep = 1 forward lunge + 1 side lunge+ 1 backward lunge)
