I was the LIFT Q but the regular beatdown Q had a family emergency that required her attention at home so we did a combination workout today. The beatdown I created was focused on strength training using resistance bands with no cardio. For the ladies who wanted some cardio, I had them run laps after each round of exercises instead of holding plank with the LIFT ladies and they ended up getting in about a mile of running. It actually worked really well and I loved that we were all together! This was an awesome but tough workout and brought out lots of mumble chatter and I think a few tears, LOL. This was my first time Qing a band workout and I will definitely be bringing them back again.
