Happy July 5th!

I had been thinking about this workout for a while. I made a playlist last week and spent the week trying to figure out what exercises to do for each song. It finally came together last night and the workouts were all choreographed to the music.      I had 56 minutes of music this morning and was ready to go….. well, I had to say the disclaimer first… Then I was ready!
