Virtual Community Fitness: Workout #5. 80's edition

If the though of another at-home strenght workout in this blistering heat gest you down, don’t fret! We’ve added some pizzazz to this weekly workout. It still follows the same tried and true format: warmup, balance (or other auxiliary activity), circuit, stretching cool down, but there’s quite the outfit and some silly music involved. See the video (but don’t try to listen too hard for the music, it’s quite soft).
