THE FORGOTTEN TERRITORIES

THE FORGOTTEN TERRITORIES 

This workout is based on the fact that in most workouts, some areas of our bodies are substantially less targetted or forgotten. Hence, this workout addresses this problem by providing a routine to perform during 2 weeks in order to reinforce these forgotten areas.

Not only this workout will help rebalancing your physique, but it will also improve your performance once back to your usual workout.
