Why Conni  likes this workout

• This workout requires only dumbbells and come done about anywhere.
• The moves work most over our major muscle groups (aka full body)
• It helps build strength but also requires some balance and stabilization by ways incorporating the reverse lunge
• It includes lateral movement, which is often missed in our daily lives.
